Blog about work and babies

Hey everyone! Our family had a fun but not that relaxing (!) summer vacay this summer first time as a  family of 5. It's hard work, let me tell ya! My husband and I love travelling so we haven't given up on that even though our fam has grown. No, having a third one - baby - doesn't exactly make it harder but having 3 kids at different ages just makes it harder, if you know what I mean. 5 year old is great company and baby goes along the way but a 3 year old is a peace of work :D I'm just hoping it's a phase that will soon pass. Most of all, the number of luggage you need with 3 is massive, your organizing skills need to be in order, meaning 24/7. Skip a lunch and you're dead! Seriously. Right now being at home and vacationing locally to parks etc is a childs play :) home sweet home, for sure. BUT despite of all that, it wasn't a true disaster and let's remember that kids will grow and our next trip will be so much different. Happy summer holiday to a...

Hey everyone! It's been a loooong time since I last time wrote and that's solely because my early pregnancy in may until the end of july was so difficult. Yes, morning and all-the-time -lasting pregnancy related sickness :( Luckily, it has almost stopped now and I can finally be happy about my pregnancy :) This summer me and my family travelled to Bulgaria, Sunny beach. If you've been following on my instagram, you'll see some fun pics from that vacay :) We also travelled to Estonia , Hotel Sveitsi in Hyvinkää here in Finland (top notch!) and after that we just relaxed here at home. Or, if you can relax with a 2 and 4 year olds, then good job :D After all, we had a great summer and we did so many fun things as a family of four - things will be quite different next summer as a family of five, yikes! :) This summer I've also put an effort on growing my belly :D I was also diagnosed again with gestational diabetes so no more growing my belly with pizza or cand...

Good morning! Summer is finally here, or at least june is. We still had some rain last week and are supposed to have it today too, but tomorrow should be better what comes to weather. I still have my hopes that summer and warm weather will get here too! Talk about summer and upcoming trips too, I'm in a hopeless journey of finding one more new umbrella/small travel stroller. We do have a travel stroller (Britax b agile) that we bought in 2014 and it still functions quite well after all our trips. But it wont seat two kids, that's for sure so on our last trip to Crete we actually had our double stroller, Phil and Teds Navigator, with us. Ok, it was a good idea to have it with us because it's sorta like a travel stroller for two kids and we do need it because our toddler still sleeps during the day and a stroller works just fine for that. Actually, they both take their nap at the same time so it was perfect in that trip. But then again, this stroller is kinda heavy and bi...

Good evening! What a relaxing weekend we've had: lots of playing outside with the kids (ok, just with the older one so far) and enjoying the last sunny days of summer so far. Let's hope next week and especially next weekend will still be nice so we can be outside as we have our baby's christening party on saturday. He'll finally have officially a name then! :) I also made it to the big supermarket yesterday with my toddler and got everything for the party. Baby stayed home with his daddy - first time for an hour and a half. So much easier to go get stuff with one child only. Next week will be spent cleaning, planning the party and preparing & baking everything. Lot of work but it'll be fun :) I'm gonna bake two cakes since some of our guests will need a gluten-free food so that'll be double for everything. I'm making this blueberry cake for those who have a gluten-free diet - sorry, this recipe is only in Finnish. Freely translated it means ...

Good morning (or afternoon, I may say)!! What a great way to wake up after a somewhat good night sleep :) We had a rough night with little L because when he goes to sleep, he always needs his mommy to tuck him in - and now I'm sort of occupied with the baby and I don't have enough time to do that. I feel so bad and he gets so sad and mad at the same time. Luckily he fell asleep in his own bed and slept through the night. This constant guilt is killing me :( Well, I guess it just takes time. For today, I have some discount codes for you to share if you're interested - from travelling to shopping. Some of these are in Finnish only - sorry about that: Easyloma (travelling) Lisäalennnusta lapsista 100€ Easyloman matkoilla lapset matkustavat aina edullisesti.
