Few last days of old home

It has been a while since our family has moved, but again we are going to make it to a new location.. I (Pekka) originally hoped we could stay in our home where we got to at the beginning of my studies and stay there till we move out.  But as everything, it was not really up to us, but as the twins are about to become separate members of our family we need to expand.. and so we move.
It has been lovely, we had our thanksgiving here, meatclub and many good memories.. on to a new place to make some new memories I guess..

We painted one wall yellow here and now need to repaint.. and perhaps rip off the hard and carefully measured and placed mirrors.. Oh well, hopefully we find enough people to help so we can make it in one day..

Just a few days ago we got our first snow, it came in the night and melted away during the day, but it is a grim reminder to us that the winter is coming. Although there are so many great things for us to expect this winter gain that we should really not worry about the dark and cold to come..

Hopefully everything will go fine with the move and Peregrine will find his new home nice and enjoy the neighbor kids company.
I am as busy as ever trying to motivate myself to read for Surgery final exam during our week off next week and packing and organizing the move and trying hard to remember that next weekend the winter time will take affect.. and not be at school or at church an hour early..

Breakfast of champions...

It is funny how things get done when there are people around.. We had the pleasure of having My sister Tiina and her two kids Vilho and Martta with us.. the days flew by like the wind. I remember thinking it is going to be a long week to get through, but all of a sudden it was her time to leave and we were "alone" with Peregrine and Halle at home..

 The action was fast and furious with few breaks in between.. like sleeping and eating.. Here all the kids dove off couch onto the pillows placed on the floor yelling "Kabazoom!"

 Later next week Peregrine wondered into the kitchen and took it upon himself to find some food... and ended up chewing some dishwasher tablet for evening snack.. we proceeded to call the poison control, but luckily our brand of soap was not poisonous..

Here Peregrine is eating little more agreeable evening snack in his own style as ou can observe in the picture underneath.. he managed to chew off a round piece of cheese and leave the cracker bread untouched... that is skill...or pickyness.

Here is a picture of our precious little man with our new SLR camera..(SLR (single lens reflex)) for those like us who have no clue what SLR mean..




We proceeded to upgrade our Olympus camera to Nikon D5100 to prepare ourselves for year long photo shoot with twins.. This is proven to be the best way to remember what took/takes place in the first year of the baby's life. Halle just finished a photo book of Peregrines first year using photos we took during that time. The first month photos are almost all grainy and poorly lit, taken when the baby sleeps.. Now we have tools to snap those low light photos..
