Dear Chibi,

After a long 1.5 year wait, Sailor Moon Sailor Stars Part 2 has finally landed in Australia. It took almost 6 years to release the entire set.. but here we are, all 200 episodes on bluray and DVD formats! You can read my review on Part 1 here.

Dear Chibi,

Another year younger…who’s keeping count? ;) My birthday landed on a Friday this year, but Hubby made sure I still had my favourite type of breakfast~ Waffles with oreo icecream served with hot hojicha..yummmm…what a way to start the day! ^.^ <333

My dinner request was a no-brainer~ SUKIYAKI :DDD The cold has made it particularly awesome this year.

Hubby surprised me with this gorgeous Banana Caramel Cake from Patisserie New York. So delicious and pretty!! *_* The macaron..oh my.

Dear Chibi,

Happy 2nd birthday to our Hungry Little Caterpillar :3 He’s growing up to be a very kind, gentle boy and I hope he knows how much Mummy and Daddy loves him <3

P-chan has always enjoyed Eric Carle’s illustrations and is particularly fond of the Very Hungry Caterpillar. Maybe it’s because it loves to eat, but most likely because it’s green – his favourite colour. I chose this book as his party’s theme to reflect this innocent time of his life…toddlerhood :)

Dear Chibi,

My sweet little P-chan, look how much you’ve grown! So curious and full of excitement and wonder…You really gave Daddy a big workout, didn’t you? :) Thank you Hubby for these beautiful photos and memories we’ll cherish forever.

Dear Chibi,

It’s been a while since we’ve taken P-chan out to Darling Harbour :) We spent this long weekend Saturday enjoying the Darling Quarter playground and he loved it! The water play section was definitely a hit. He had such a great time and the weather was perfect for it ^.^

~Young Mikayla had a farm, ee i ee i o~

Dear Chibi,

Today we celebrated our dear little Mikayla’s 2nd birthday! Mich & Troy threw her a very adorable farm-themed party with the birthday girl wearing a mini farmers outfit. The crew mostly came in matching flannels and P-chan of course had to come as a piggy :3 Everything was so cute and well thought out. Thank you Mich & Troy for organising such a fun party and having us be part of this day!

Dear Chibi,

This morning we took P-chan to a easter breakfast event held by Lidcombe Shopping Center. There was face painting, a kids magic show and of course a meet and greet with the Easter Bunny (he’s kinda creepy though lol). Newway & Alex also attended the event, so P-chan had some cute company :) It was a pretty fun, enjoyable morning.

Digging right in!!

SO MANY SWEETS. P-chan was having the time of his life 8D

Dear Chibi,

On this beautiful calm day, we whipped out the bubble wand and watched little P-chan’s face light up in awe :) There is something magical about bubbles, even if it lasts for a fleeting moment. Simple.. yet so mesmerising.

Dear Chibi,

Happy Holidays!! Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas from our family to yours :D

We didn’t take photos with Santa this year, but we’ll always have our family portrait next to our tree ^.^ Thankfully after P-chan’s initial interest in throwing the baubles, our tree has mostly remained intact. I consider that a success 8D

Dear Chibi,

P-chan attended a Christmas dinner party with his little friends this year :3 We enjoyed an evening of yummy food, drinks, ice-cream, playground and of course, presents! :D What a wonderful way to celebrate the closing of a crazy year, and some new friendships along the way :)
