Past, present and future

A picture from the past. Not so distant past, but from last Easter we spent at my parents' summer place. We have a 4WD Land Rover and DH wanted to test it on snow, and I mean half a meter deep snow. This was a 10m stretch of road that was unplowed. Just look at the picture, do I need to tell you what happened?!?We got stuck with all the boys + Clara in the car. And since we don't carry a snow shovel with us we had to call my dad to bring one. He brought two and I guess the other one snapped in two. Well, after 20 minutes we were free to go. But DH swore that he'd try it again. Which he did on our way back home from the summer place. Again, car full of kids who eagerly want to help and our luggage, and DH determined to try it again from the other end of the road. My mom was almost hysterical with laughter when I called her 5 minutes after we had left:"We need a shovel...." I didn't dare to take a picture that time.

A picture from the present (picture it, ok?). Jaakko has been without a diaper for TWO DAYS. And no wet pants, either!!! Is the end of our 6.5 year diaper-infested life coming closer?

Future. Next week. No pictures yet, since the baby hasn't been born yet. My brother's first born is 13 days past the due date, so it should be next week that the boys get a new member for their football team!
