Week 29 - A Birthday and a baptism

This week on Wednesday we flew to Finland just in time to escape from the very hot weather that was arriving to Italy. The day we arrived it was sunny and nice, but the next couple of days the temperatures sank as low as 14 degrees during day time and it felt more like autumn than summer.
The girls went to pick blueberries and raspberries as soon as they arrived and we got ingredients for blueberry muffins that we made for Carlotta's birthday.
This week was a party week for us. On the 20th was Carlotta turned 8. We had a nice little party at home with my parents and a friend of mine with her children. Carlotta got nice presents, we ate cakes and went out to the playground a bit before the guests went home. Carlotta wanted to leave some presents for another day. She remembered that we celebrated her twice last year because all the family wasn't here at her birthday, so she wanted to do it again this year. So there are still some presents to open later on when we'll go on a birthday pick nick. On her birthday it was a bit too cool to sit outside, so we had the birthday cake inside this time.
Next day we went to Helsinki to celebrate my cute little goodson's baptism. There weren't so many guests, so they celebrated it at home and it was very nice.
