Daycare

Emma has been at her new daycare this week, and frankly, she hates it :( sucks. Apparently she's crying all the time... The people there keep trying to convince me she's sick so I took her to the doctor AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH HER. I swear she's just crying cause she is so intimidated by the size of the place. They should really know how to deal with that :( Nonetheless she's fine once I pick her up and she's same old same old Emma. Here she is in our yard in some over-sized clothing :P 

Talking on the phone

This kid is such a genius. She knows a bunch of tricks :P She can do plie and piruetti :D aka she bends her knees and then turns around. She also knows how to talk on the phone, she can even blow her own nose! And she knows to say kakka while she's pooing or peeing, which results in me saying "yes I know, I can feel it down my leg"

princess' need to be pretty :)

So yeah it's a bit weird writing here again, I hope someone can give me ideas to what to write about.... like if you want to here more about our schedule / games or my school or even our feelings. Note you can post anonymously ;)

Boring weekend

This weekend I decided was a good weekend to do NOTHING. Emma spent max 2 hours outside, mainly because she has a runny nose and a bit of a cough. I don't want her to be sent home the first day of her (new) daycare, so I'm hoping she'll be better tomorrow from resting. It's really hard listening to her cough while writing here, I keep wanting to check how she is... but I know that by walking into her room I'll just wake her up :(

Miraculously Emma took two naps today on my behalf. I keep passing out on my bed from being so exhausted. Luckily she's sometimes understanding and naps with me, or at least chills on the bed for a little while. I managed to forget how hard it is being all day at home with a kid. I swear I'm cleaning ALL the time, and still it's messy!! But the mess is really worth it. Behind me is a pile of quilts and pillows, but they were used in the tent me and Emma made today :) It was our tent on a deserted island where we go sea-shell picking. :)

 Also I'm avoiding going into out kitchen... I decided to make lentil soup as part of an assignment for school. The soup turned out OK, but thinking about the dishes is making me stressed and sleepy. And yes, our homework was to cook food --> best courses ever!

Tomorrow I'll put up a picture of Emma's first day in daycare <3 But for now I will go educate myself on wines. And yes, we have a wine course --> best school ever!

Little school girls

Emma is changing daycare on Monday, and is going to a BIG one with many kids of all ages. I'm so scared for her! I preferred that she had a more intimate environment in her previous one, but unfortunately I just couldn't make it there sometimes by 17:00 to pick her up :( She already has her back-pack packed and tomorrow I'll buy her a folder, that she can use to store her artwork, and a diaper pack :) I also bought her these ugly Cars-indoor shoes, and yes I was being cheap but common she'll need new ones soon anyways.

I had my first week of classes at uni and its been really nice so far! I actually like my courses, and enjoy (so far) reading for them. This has come as a huge surprise to me, and my family, considering I slacked off all of high school :D

We took pics for mommy's first day in school :)

MOOMINWORLD

   I know I'm a bit late writting this in, but I have to show pictures and tell about our amazing trip to Moomin World! I used to go there as a kid, and it has definatly changed quite a bit since my visit.

   We had the enjoyable company of my dad's girlfriend Heini and her daughter Silja. We spent a few hours on Väski, an island with obstacle courses and events for children, which was great for Silja and she seemed to really enjoy it. We then continued to Moomin World, which was AMAZING. All the moomin characters were there, singing and dancing for kids to join in. Emma was in the front line clapping and stepping to the beat. For those who haven't seen Emma dance... you've missed out. The most adorable thing in the world. That girl is going to end up and amazing dancer. There was also a theatre where Moomin and his friends performed a play about them in the Wild West. :) We ate makkaraperunoita and did some shopping in the moomin store. Unfortunatly we didn't have time to see everything, but atleast there's more for next years trip!

Äiti ja Emma
