Simple Life with a Baby?

Күн бұрынHey friends 🌲 We're excited to share a BIG update: we have launched a crowdfunding campaign to drill a well at our cabin: gofund.me/5dc981bc
For years, we've relied on our pond for water, but with a baby on the way, a reliable water source is now our top priority. If you're able to contribute, no amount is too small. Crowdfunding is about many people coming together and giving a little, adding up to something significant in the end ❤

Hey, Kalle.. Can a Paypal option be added to your GoFundMe ?
@InfiniteLynn 2 ай бұрын
I just wanted to mention to anyone donating from the USA, one swedish krona (SEK) equals about 9 and one half cents ($0.0947) in US money. 150 krona = $14.20, 300 krona = $28.41, 1,056 krona = $100.

@@ionawoodart I've had several people asking for PayPal, but GoFundMe doesn't allow me to add it. But what you can do is to email me here: www.kalleflodin.com/contact and I will send you my PayPal that way. Hope that helps 😊

I admire Christina's resolve. My wife is pregnant with our second child right now. During our first pregnancy, we still lived in my condo in the city so all the modern amenities were available to to her. We have since moved into the off-grid home I built for us in the country. We have a shower, running water and an indoor toilet, but resources still need to be managed differently than a conventional home. We are also a bit of a ways away from the hospital, so it will be interesting when the time to deliver comes. I personally would never hear the end of it if my wife had to go outside every time she had to go, which is every half hour right now. Or if she couldn't get hot water to wash her hands. Your girl is an exceptionally strong lady.

Kallie, you should place your baby’s seat in the center of your back seat, as it’s the safest place should you be in an accident. We were in an accident were the back seat passenger was pushed in 29 inches after being hit broadside. Our baby only had minor injuries in the form of small cuts from broken glass. Everyone was so amazed how well the car seat protected him, but also that we had placed him in the center. So happy for your family . Blessings❤

This should be required viewing for all new fathers worldwide. Thank you for sharing this with us, and needless to say, we are so very excited for you and Cristina!!

Hello Kalle and Christina, kalle this was wonderful video showing the restoration process on your cabin. One that you should be and I know you are very proud of. Great work on everything. I know Christina is going to love everything that you've done for the both of you. And your son when he's born although he's too young to realize it at this point. He will in the future. Thank you for sharing this video with me and others on KZfaq. Looking forward to more videos of your journey.

Swaddling was the real challenge and going sleep deprived after baby came along. By 6 months our son was sleeping through the night but he was born low weight for GA and for 3-4 months he was starvin Marvin!! Once he gained some weight and he was t so hungry all the time he slept well. One night he cried a little in his crib but after that he slept well and even napped well. He’s now taller than me and well in his way to becoming a man. I pray your child’s birth comes easy and he sleeps well with you both.
