Aamulla klo 8...

Meillä tänä aamuna klo 8.
"Äiti. Mä en halua helätä vielä, mulla on uni kesken!"
"No mitä unta sä sitten näit?"
"Emmä tiiä vielä, mun täytyy kattoo" :)

Taas täällä

On se kumma kun ei koskaan kerkiä mitään tekemään. Työt kasaantuu ja stressiä pukkaa. Joka yrittäjän arkea...mutta mutta,kyllä se tästä.
Tänään Sofia marssi toimistolle toisessa kädessä kiharia ja toisessa sakset ja sanoi et "äiti,katos mitä Oliver teki". Jep-jep. Kylppärin lattia oli totta tosiaan hiusten peitossa. Poika päätti sitten leikata tukkansa. Ihme kyllä,paksu tukka on ja paljon tukkaa joten ei edes päällisin puolin näy että kasa tukkaa puuttuu ;)

voi vittu

Oliver pelasi isin kännykällä jotakin peliä ja yhtäkkiä kuului pienen pojan suusta, että 

"voi vittu- mä hävisin"  

Olin suu auki kauhuissaan tästä ja kysyin ällistyneenä että "mitä sä sanoit?"

"ai voi vittu vai"?

Ei niin saa sanoa, se on vessasana.

"Ai se vittuko"

Just se.

"OK äiti." 

Ja vähänajan päästä kuului pojan suusta, että  

"tää on vaan peliä hei"

Apua ja huh huh totean minä!

50 cents

Oliver has started to receive "weekly money / viikkoraha". 

Yes, I admit that he might be too young for it, just 3 years of age but on the other hand he was starting to be a bit upset as his bigsister gets "weekly money / viikkoraha" for reward of being helpful and well behaved. So why Oliver is not also being rewarded? After all he is the easiest and has 100 times less temper tantrums as his sister- good point Oliver, therefore this arrangement. 

So now on also Oliver receives a weekend money. The payday will be on Saturdays and it will be given only if he has been a good boy all week and has tidied his room up on Saturday. Then he receives one free choice of lolly (from our little lolly box) AND a 50 cent coin :)

WOW- he was SOOO proud of his very first earned coin. He was walking around the house with his 50 cent piece. He kept looking at the coin and asked "Mom, can I buy anything in the world with this coin?"  ( how cute! Mum's little darling!)

We made a little pouch for his weekend savings, little own wallet. Oliver said, that he maybe will go and buy some chocolates when it is "vaari"- day. That doesn't surprise me at all. Every coin he gets will probably be spend on chocolates :)

But now comes the best part! Oliver found from our hallway chest draw lots of coins and he asked:

"WOW mum, did Dad buy you all these coins?"   :D

Oliver- young photograpfer

Mom was working in the office. Oliver was at home, waiting for vaari to come as it was a "vaari- day"

It is quiet. Too quiet. I wondered what Oliver was doing. Hmmm, it must be something bad as I can't hear anything. 

"Oliver, what are you up to?"  

"Nothing..." 

"yeah right" and went to look what he was up to...

When I got to him he had a BIG smile on his face and our camera on his hand. He had taken over 20 pics of himself :)  Here's few. Our little cheeky monkey!

 :)  :)  :) 

Let's twist

Oliver kömpi taas äidin viereen tänä aamuna. Miten voi olla aina yhtä vaikeaa aamulla sängystä nousu?  Mä vaan inhoon sitä! Onneksi kuitenkin Oliver ilahduttaa äitiä joka aamu kömpimällä äitin kylkeen ja halimalla äitiä <3 

Oliver mietiskeli ja pohdiskeli selvästi jotakin ja sitten sanoi, että  

"Äiti, sun nimi on Sanna"  Niin on kultaseni- totesin.

"Ja isin nimi on Twistan"   :D   :D  :D

Tristan sai uuden lempinimen! Twistan, aivan mieletön. Jes!  

Let's twist again!  :)

*   *   *

Oliver cuddled up again with me in the morning underneath the warm blankets as it takes faaaar too long time for mum to get up in the mornings. In fact, mom just HATES mornings :/  Well at least someone brightens up mom's morning as Oliver climes up to our bed for a morning cuddle <3  

Oliver was deeply thinking something and then he said: 

"Mom, your name is Sanna"  Yes, it is darling.  

"And Mom, Dad's name is "Twistan"  

Yep....we have a new nickname for Tristan!  Twistan! Love it! 

And hey, let's twist again :D

training our aupair

Here she is, our new family member, Oliver's "new biggest sister", our lovely Aupair Katja <3 

Oliver will now demonstrate how to train an aupair :)

 

So let's get started with the 

"How to get what you want from your aupair"- training school. 

This tip is definitely worth a try, especially if there are some signs of chocolates in the house.

 

The goal: to receive some chocolate from your aupair.

 

This is how it's done, just follow these 5 easy steps:

 

1-2-3-4-5

 

Step 1: Ask nicely first where she hides all of her chocolates and tell her that you like chocolate a lot..

 

Step 2: Look like you are a little bit worried if she wouldn't get the message that you really really would like some.

Step 3: Look at her with your sad puppy dog face and ask  if you could pleeeeeeease get some chocolate?

  Step 4. If she still didn't get your point, just say 

"Look, just give me the chocolate or I will start screaming until I get some justice. Don't believe me? I can show you how!"

Step 5. If you still can't see any chocolate in horizon just show your real colors. You are free to use any language or word you like. Remember, little children have rights too. Yep, we have freedom of speech so go for it!

"I tried to be nice but you just don't get it! Give me the goddamn chocolate here!"

 :)    :)   :)

Keksi-keksintö

Voi elämä taas näitä ihania pienen miehen mietiskelyjä. Tänään pitkän tuumimisen jälkeen Oliver kysäisi auton takapenkiltä, että:

 "Äiti, jos joku niinku keksii jotakin niin saako se syödä lopuksi sen keksin?"

 :D :D :D

*On tuo poikaa vaan semmoinen äitin pikku Cookiemonster ettei toista :) *

 

*   *   *

 Oliver said today something funny in Finnish but the little man's thought is not funny or makes no sense in English at all, so sorry...

 

 

Vaakkaka

Oliver kömpi äidin viereen tänä aamuna. Siinä lämmittelimme peiton alla kun isi oli avannut ikkunan ja kylmä syksyinen ilma puhalsi sisään. Yhtäkkiä kuului kamala harakan rääkytys pihalta. Oliver siihen totesi, että

"Äiti, kuuntele, ulkona on vaakkaka - vaakkaka"  :)

 Naiset ja herrat, täten ilmoitan, että tässä perheessä käytetään tästä lähtien harakasta virallista nimeä vaakkaka.    :)

*  *  *

 Oliver said today something very cute in Finnish but the saying makes no sense in English, sorry about that. And sorry that you are not part of that 5 million people who can understand this funny language. It is like secret language which only few can share...

Happy Birthday Katrin- ARTWORK!

Oliver misses Katrin alot. I said to him that Katrin has a Birthday soon. He git SOOO exited, started to jump and said, yes, yes, yes, there will be some cake and chocolate and and... 

Poor little thing really thought that we can celebrate Katrin's birthday together with her.  When I explained that this is not possible, was Oliver a bit sad but finally got smile to his face when I asked if he would like to make a gift for her!  YEAAAH -he yelled with BIG smile on his face. 

So, the kids ended up drawing in to pillow case and here's the final result.

* Happy Birthday Katrin, we miss you *

LOL

"Äiti, mä rakastan sua.......yhtä paljon kuin.......(miettii)....yhtä paljon kun noita kiviä on meidän tiellä." 

Voiko ihanammin vielä sanoa? Äidin kullanmuru <3

*  *  *

"Mom, I love you.........as much as .....(thinking).....as much as there are stones in our road" 

How cute is that. My little darling <3

Pappa- angel

Oltiin Oliverin kanssa ruokapöydässä, syötiin kahdestaan ja oli hiiren hiljaista.
Sitten Oliver tokaisi:

"Äiti. Pappa on kuollut"

"Niin on kultaseni" -totesin ja ihmettelin, että mistäs se tuon nyt vetäsi.

"Niin, mutta ei se ole niinku oikeesti kuollut. Tuossa se Pappa-enkeli seisoo sun vieressä"  totesi poika ja näytti katseellaan mun viereen ja sitten jatkoi syömistä. 

Minä en saanut sanaa suustani. En pitkään aikaan. Vieläkin ihmetyttää. Oliver ei ikinä kerinnyt tapaamaan Pappaa. Pappa kuoli juuri ennen Oliverin syntymää.

*  *  *

I was having a dinner together with Oliver. We were enjoying the dinner and it was nice and quiet. Suddenly Oliver broke the silence by saying:

"Mom, Pappa is dead"

"Yes he is, my sweetie" -I answered and wondered a bit why he suddenly started with this topic.

"Yes, but he is not actually dead, there he is, Pappa-angel, standing beside you"  
and then Oliver looked at my left hand side and then he continued his dinner.

I couldn't say a word, for a long time. I just kept wondering his words. Oliver never met Pappa. Pappa died just before Oliver's birth.

Good God.

Ajoimme autolla kun korvaani kantautui takapenkiltä lasten keskustelua.

"Kato Sofia kuinka hienoja taloja Jumala on luonut" -Oliver sanoi.

"Ei-ei-ei se niin mee, annas kun sisko selittää tän sulle. Katsos kun Jumala on luonut ne ii-ii-iihmiset ja niille sen taaa-aa-aaaidon joilla ne osasi rakentaa ne talot." -Sofia oikaisi.

"aijaa" pieni mies ihmetteli.

Eihän siinä voinu muuta kuin hymyillä :) 
 
*   *  *

We were driving in the car when I heard this conversation from the back seat.

"Look at those great big buildings which God had created" -Oliver said.

"Noo-noo-noo. Let big sister explain this to you. See, God has created humans and the skill to build things so that humans could build the buildings" -Sofia said proudly

"Ahaa."  and the little man kept wondering the big questions in his small head.

I just love to listen their serious conversations :)

Little booby man!

Täällä ollaan! I'm back!
Kauan hiljaiseloa on ollut, en oo jaksanu bloggailla ja muistitilakin bloggerista loppui.
Nyt oon takas täällä ja olen ostanut ison muistin joten tilaa on kuville ja tarinoille :)
Oliver kasvaa hurjaa vauhtia ja pikku hurmuri- söpöläisestä on tullut oikea vitsiniekka. Tällä hetkellä Oliveria ihmetyttää maailman suuret ihmeet kuten mm. miten vauva on äidin mahassa, miten se sinne joutuu ja miten se sieltä tulee ulos.

Oliver ilmoitti, että hän haluisi niin kovasti mennä takaisin äidin masuun. Kun kerroin, ettei se sinne enää mahdu, oli Oliver vähän harmissaan. 
"No, sitten haluaisin olla pienen pieni vauva. Saisin sitten juoda maitoa äidin tisseistä."

Keskustelu päättyi suureen nauruun kun Oliver tokaisi lisäksi vaarille, että
"Vaari, äidin tisseissä ei ole enää yhtään maitoa...koska mä imin ne ihan tyhjäksi"  :D

*     *     *

I'm back!
It has been such a long time since my last update, my apologies! Well, I'm back and I bought heaps of new blogger space so lots of pictures are coming soon too.
Oliver is growing fast. He is so adorable as always and also these days such a joker! 

Currently  he is wondering life's little wonders and after long thought Oliver said 
"I want to go back in to mummy' s belly" 
When I told him that it is not possible, ones you 're out you are out and that's it. He wasn't pleased.  Then Oliver said  
"I wish I would be such a small-tiny-little baby again and I could drink milk from mummy's boobs again"...
and the came the funniest part when Oliver commented to Vaari (Grandfather):
"Vaari, Mum has no more milk in her boobies because I sucked them all empty"  :D 

God help him. He is just a booby man!

Overnight stay...

Oliver lähti isomummille yökylään.
"mä oon sitten 10 yötä siellä" uhosi pikkumies,
"aijaa, eix sua tuu äitiä yhtään ikävä?"...
"ei tuu" totesi poika reippaana
...sitten 4 tuntia myöhemmin puhelin soi...
"äiti, tuu hakee, mul on niin kauhee ikävä" :) ♥

Illalla omassa sängyssään Oliver totesi, että on huomenna taas menossa isomummille yökylään :)

*  *  * 

Oliver went to Isomummi´s place for a sleepover.
"I´ll stay at Isomummi´s for 10 days"  little man blustered.
"Oh, aren´t you going to miss mum at all?"
"Nope" littl brave boy said
...after 4 hours phone was ringing..."
"Mum, come and pick me up, I miss you so much" :) <3

Later on in his own bed Oliver stated that tomorrow he will stay again overnight at Isomummi´s place <3

Happohyökkäys :D

Pitkän pohdinnan jälkeen Oliver ilmoitti, että:

"Äiti, jos syö kakkaa niin se ei oo hyvä juttu hampaille"

 -Miksi kaikki pissa-kakka jutut niin naurattaa ja mietityttää aina kaikkia lapsosia? jepjep, vitsi näitä kakka-aiheisia tarinoita riittää...-
     
 *   *   *


After thinking Oliver came to his conclusion that 

"Mom, if you would eat poo it would'nt be good for your teeth."

-Gee, why kids are always so fascinated when it comes to wee and poo? They are our kids daily topics at the moment-

Shit happens!

Lapset leikkivät pihalla tyytyväisenä ja kikattelivat sen minkä kerkesivät. Sitten kuulu Sofian huuteleminen: "Äitiiii, äitiii, Oliver kakkas!"

Mitä? eihän se oo ollu vaipoissa pitkään aikaan enää ja osaa potallekin mennä...mikä juttu tämä nyt on... Menin sitten lasten luo ja sanoin, et "tulix sulta kakka Oliver?". Oliver nyökytteli ja kikatteli samalla. Sitten Sofia lisäsi, että: "Se kakkas tonne meiän koristelampeen!   ***rkele! Meiän uusi lampi, syvyyttä hurjat 20cm, sinne se pökäle pohjalle vajonnut, iso pökäle! Lapset kikattivat niin, etteivät tienneet miten päin olla. "Lapset, siihen piti just asentaa suihkulähde!" Ehkä ei sittenkään, ainakaan ennen kuin lampi on putsattu, hehe.

"Ongitaan se, ongitaan se!" lapsoset naureskelivat. Ole siinä sitten vakavana...

...loppu hyvin, kaikki hyvin...onnex meillä on mies talossa.... :D

*   *   *

Oliver and Sofia were playing outside and giggling nonstop. Soon Sofia was yelling: "Mum, Oliver just pooed"  What the hell, was I thinking, he has been capable to use the toilet for a long time, what happened...Then Sofia added: "He just pooed in to our water bond!"  

OMG, it was true, there it was, sunken to bottom of our new deco water pond. Kids were laughing so much that they were rolling around the garden and I tried not to laugh. "Let's do some fishing, hey, let's do some fishing to get it out!"  and they had even bigger laugh.

Oh no, well, some good news, we lucky that we have a Dad in our house...  :D

Totuus tulee lasten suusta

Oliver mietiskeli pitkään ja sitten ilmoitti mulle, että

"Äiti, sä et ole nuori enää"  ja hymyili onnellisena päälle.

Auz, t. äiti 36vee

*  *  *

Oliver was thinking for a while and then he came to his conclusion and said:

"Mum, you are not young anymore"

Auz, Mum age 36years

Paras äiti

Oliverin suusta tänä aamuna:

"Äiti, sä oot paras äiti koko...maljassa"

Two peas in a pod

Mother and Son <3

I found these funky jumpsuits from sale rack and they are so comfortable. Oliver just loves them and keeps walking around the house holding hands in his pockets. 

Oliver couldn't stop giggling when he saw that mom has same kind of outfit aswell.
