{forgiveness & bruno mars}

two totally unrelated things today. a quote that i like and a song i've been listening to over and over again this week. crazy lyrics if you take them literally but the melody... love it!

{father's day album}

this is what sienna and i did for a father's day gift this year. i put all these photos in an album and each year we'll add more question/answer photos to it. fun to see how the answers will change throughout the years.

meillä sataa ihan hurjasti vettä. oli tosi outoa kun piti jopa käyttää sateenvarjoa. yleensä täällä ei sada paljoakaan. kahden ystävän kellariin on tulvinut. toivon niin hartaasti että meidän sump pump toimii ja meidän kellarikerros pysyy kuivana. ihan outoa kyllä tällainen kaatosade joka jatkuu ja jatkuu. maailma on ihan sekaisin. :)

paljon olisi blogattavaa mutta kun on muka kiire. nytkin pitää mennä ahmimaan pannukakkua. eli heippa! :)

sienna: "these lilacs smell so pretty. it almost makes me cry."

check out this cuter than cute swimsuit i found for a babyshower gift.



and this is what i made for gifts to sienna's teacher + teacher's aid. i hope they'll like them.
i can't believe sienna's almost done with kindergarten. grade one next year which means longer school days for sienna. i'm already missing her.

{get going!}

now that i have chocolated* myself, i'm hoping to get going on my to-do list.

i need to:

 make gifts for sienna's teachers from the above items, reconcile credit card statements, plan and start working on a father's day gift, book an appointment for a bloodtest & doctor's visit, clean cat puke off the carpet (i forgot he shouldn't have BBQ chicken), change bedsheets & do laundry, submit medical receipts to insurance company, fax some forms to sienna's new school (we won't talk about what happened last time i tried to fax them), wrap a babyshower gift (the cutest creamy pink ruffled swimsuit) and who knows what else i'm forgetting from my list.

lots to do so i better get going. wish me luck. :)

*chocolated myself

(pronounced chocola + ted) 

= filled myself with chocolate in hopes of having some energy after not sleeping enough due to falling asleep for a quick nap late in the evening while putting sienna to bed. long enough sentence for you? :D i know, my english is terrible. if you want to see amazing language skills, this is definately not a blog for you :D

and yes, i made that word up. it should be in the dictionary, don't you think? :)

tradition in the making: quick surprise drawings on tiny post-it notes for sienna's school snack bag.
