Blog about work and babies

Good morning, dear readers! * this post includes an ad * September is quickly turning to october, and most people - at least here in Finland - like to do something special on their fall vacation. Not everyone wabt to fly outside the country but instead have a vacation in Finland and enjoy the beautiful fall colours. For that there's  Lomarengas  and the best part is that tgey have good quality cabins all over Finland. This year we're actually flying to Greece on fall vacation since we did this Finland vacation-thing this past summer. All I gotta say is that these cabins are worth taking into deep consideration. I love the cooler but not cold weather, hikes up north, picking berries, fishing and just spending time with the family. My kids are 100% outdoorsy kinda people, as in they love to explore the nature and that fresh air does some magic to their heads ;) they sleep like babies (or like middle-aged men :D) so thats another great reason for this kinda vacation. Anyone wit...

Happy rainy tuesday! Boy, that fall came here fast with cooler weather and rain, yikes :( I'm def a fall person with cooler weather, sun and all the different colours out there but not a fan of rain and upcoming flu-season. Well, that obviously means more shopping for me because I just bought a new (second-hand) Bugaboo cameleon3 stroller :) yeah, back to Bugaboo - oh how I've missed them <3 so now that I have them all I need to do is to buy accessories for the - all Bugaboo, of course! I'm thinking I'll need a new footmuff, comfort wheeled board (ya know, the one with a seat) and leather up-grade for the handle-bar. And maybe something else too..;) Babyshop  has all those and much more - basically everything you need for you and your family. What's best (and easiest) is thatthey deliver so all you have to do is sit back, relax, choose what you need and make an order. Easy! Enjoy your tuesday and let's go shopping!

Hey everyone! Fall's here with cooler weather and rain, and it's that time again when you need to think again what to wear (bikini's aren't enough :)), how to take your kids to playground or to daycare and do I need a babycarrier or a new stroller. Luckily my older kids ride their bikes to daycare and my youngest son - now 7 months old - travels everywhere under my babywearing jacket. So no stroller really needed! But then again, winter's coming too and here in Finland you need a stroller with big tires and the streets are slippery so maybe a stroller could be on my shopping list. That's why I listed some of my favorite items so feel free to check them out and get them if you feel they're useful to you :)Warning: contains ads. Babywearing I love babywearing and Hoppediz has this alternative for a babycarrier, a Hop-Tye Buckle . It's soft as a sling but easy as a carrier, and it's adjustable so it goes from newborn to a toddler.  Double str...

Howdy everyone! Fall is here, actually for the second day since we had the best summer ever :) long summer, that is. Now it's finally getting cooler so it's time to check out new fall clothes. My favorite destination is  Bestseller  because they have clothes for everyone. My favorites are their maternity line, which includes mamalicious clothes, and nursing wear. What's your favorite? Right now I'm a fan of sweat pants and hoodies - either the ones you can nurse in (the hoodies of course :D) or the clothes that are suitable for babywearing. Those are always my favorite :) Other than shopping, my baby and I began babyyoga few weeks ago. I love it, it's great for my back and it's about last time to start doing it since this baby has started moving! At 7 months he's not too far from learning to walk, yikes :) we're also travelling to Greece next month and that makes me so excited! Happy wednesday!

Hey everyone! Kids are back in daycare and summer is over even though the weather's been nice lately here in Finland. That's not the case every year since when school's start, summer always seem to have gone - so let's enjoy these last warm days and nights too :) At the beginning of summer I was so concerned how this summer would go as a family of 5, ie with 3 kiddos. All I'm gonna say is that it wasn't the easiest at some times but I learned a lot from my kids and overall it was a great summer. Luckily me being home, my middle son gets to stay home on mondays and therefore he only has four days at daycare. He's only 3 so that works for us just fine. Our 5 year old likes to go to daycare because that's where all his friends are and there just aren't that many 5 year olds who stay at home. In Finland you can stay home and take care of your kids that are under 3, and you get a little compensation for that too, without losing your job if you have a p...

Good afternoon! How are you doing? I'm having a great day with my kiddos at a park and for some un-explainable reason, my 3 year old hasn't pushed any "mommy goes crazy" -buttons :D oh well, I'm sure that'll change or maybe it's the sun that does it's magic. Anyway, I've had time to go through clothes for the fall, and most of them are too small :( good thing is that Reima  has always good quality clothes on sale and they last for years which is great since I have 3 boys. There's always next one to use them :) have you guys given a thought on fall clothing yet or are you still on holiday mood? You should enjoy your holiday but keep in mind fall is coming :) I'm so glad weekend is here and my hubby will join us. He just returned to work on wednesday and boy do I miss him during the day!! It sure feels like an olympic sport to entertain young kids. And keep an eye on them so they wont hurt them. The other night they were hiding from us pa...

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...
