The Laukkanen Family: April 2010
http://laukkanens.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 6, 2010. Well, we have once again been super busy and I am apparantly not a good blogger! But, we did have a 3 week adventure to Finland (the kids and my first trip) and Denmark, and then in order to continue to survive financially after 3 weeks with no work, I have been working non-stop for the past month! It is really crazy-most people around here do not have accents as they have moved from other places. This is Texas, not the deep south. But, nonetheless, he has started to say "...And T...

Thursday, June 13, 2013. End of an era, Start some New Beginnings! Time sure goes fast these days. We have been busy as usual. So busy I haven't blogged even.

The Laukkanen Family: February 2011
http://laukkanens.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 4, 2011. December 21, 2010. Baby Kai arrived on Dec 21, 2010. He was about 2 weeks early! I actually went into labor while at work. I was up at Lakeline Animal Care and it was my official last day of relief work scheduled. At 4 pm, my water broke. I was 45 miles from home, so had to make the drive in early rush hour traffic! My doctor's office was not too happy about that! I arrived home about 6 pm and finished packing my bags. Markku and Suvi were so excited! Nothing much happened for a...

The Laukkanen Family: February 2013
http://laukkanens.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 24, 2013. We started out the week with a few last days with Mummo and Bill before they headed back to the Pacific Northwest. While lots of adventures were had by Mummo, Bill, Heikki and the kids-I was working so no photos for me to easily upload! Wednesday Mummo and Bill had to head back to Washington state. They will be greatly missed. We then ended the week by taking a trip to Gruene, Texas (pronounced Green) to meet up with our other Mummo and Ukki Frederick. We always love our ti...

The Laukkanen Family: See dat?
http://laukkanens.blogspot.com/2013/05/see-dat.html
Saturday, May 25, 2013. Kai is a talking machine these days. Sometimes I understand him and other times I am at a loss! He is in speech to help him pronounce things a little better, but he is doing so well I am not certain he needs it. I guess he does this thing where he talks through his nose, and they are trying to help him talk through his mouth. But, some of the really cute things he says are:. For "see that" of course. He gets so excited and wants to make sure you saw what he saw! He always runs eve...

I am 21 weeks 4 days along which puts the due date as Jan 2. We are hoping for an earlier birth, as our insurance will expire when Heikki's job at the coast guard expires Dec 27! Come on Christmas baby! I was afraid i would not have enough willpower to not open the envelope, so I made Heikki take it to New Orleans with him! They both want ...

Monday, April 22, 2013. Suvi's Spectacular 5th Birthday (a Fancy Nancy event to remember! On April 20th my baby girl turned 5 yrs old. How can it be that she will start kindergarten this fall? I saw the notice for kinder round-up, the day we sign up our kids for kindergarten next fall, and tears welled up in my eyes. But, before all that sappiness, we sure did celebrate this weekend in a very spectacular manner! We had pages of ideas for our decorations and food and drinks too! Here is her list. The pict...
