Decided it's time to put the lights up 🌟

Today I went with my son to the school Christmas fair and he won a large rubber spider in a fishing game. He was so happy about it and it entertained him all day long. Simple joys of childhood 😂

My son must have had a growth spurt recently because suddenly he looks like such a big boy. Not a little toddler anymore. I'm not ready 🥹

GM ☕️ We woke up to fresh snow this morning ❄️

GM ❄️ -10°C today. Real winter has begun

We're already down to less than 7 hours of daylight here. This was at 3pm today 🌅

Took my son out to play this morning and haven't been able to get warm all day 🥶 It's only -2°C, it'll get much colder than that yet 😅

GM ☀️ We've had our first dusting of snow this morning ❄️

We finally have some sunshine and the indoor jungle is looking radiant ☀️🪴✨️ But it's also freezing outside 🥶

GM 🌧 POV: you go on a mental health walk in Finland in November The weather has been like this for a few weeks now I guess that's why November is called the "death month" in the Finnish language 💀

More learning and experimenting. It has elements that I like but I feel betrayed by the way the paint dried 😂 At least my husband said he loved it and instantly recognised the scene as the view over the Tornio river between Finland and Sweden from Aavasaksa, a place we visited together
