Dear Chibi,

This King’s Birthday public holiday we took P-chan and the grandparents out for a fun day at Calmsley Hill City Farm at Abbotsbury. P-chan loved the animals so much he was giving them hugs and using them as pillows XD We spent the day petting farm and native animals, giving them a feed, seeing the demos, enjoyed a BBQ picnic lunch and of course the tractor ride!

Dear Chibi,

Hubby organised a weekend away for my birthday down south, where we spent 2 nights in a beautiful, peaceful farm in Nowra. April-May is always pretty busy for us, so it was really nice to spend this time to unwind and go slow :D

Dear Chibi,

Drum roll please… P-chan has turned 4!

I knew this day would come.. but I’m still not ready :’) I don’t think I’ll ever be ready to see my little baby grow up so fast….He’s even made his own little friends now. <3

For the past couple of months, P-chan has been a big fan of drums, particularly Taiko drumming. This year Hubby and I threw him a ‘Taiko no Tatsujin’ themed party at home, and everyone joined in on the fun with “A touch of Japan” :D It was such a colourful, festive sight!

Dear Chibi,

Last week we took some time off work for a little getaway at Port Stephens. P-chan has been loving the beaches this summer, so we decided to make use of this beautiful weather and take him to a few more :D (Gosh, February came around fast).

Dear Chibi,

It’s been a year since our last photoshoot, and how much my little boy has grown. Sometimes I wish I could freeze time so he can stay this way forever… three is just the cutest age! (Though I’ve said that about every age so far hehe). All we can do is be present and savour every moment <3

Dear Chibi,

This year we decided to farewell 2022 with a fun night out at Fairfield’s Illuminate New Years Eve event, which makes it our first time taking P-chan out for the New Years Eve fireworks. It was a fabulous evening of free carnival rides, food trucks, entertainment, jetpack shows, performances and of course the 9.30pm fireworks! The kids got free lightsabers which proved to be quite a hit.

Dear Chibi,

Our favourite time of the year has arrived again ^.^ Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas from our family to yours :)

Continuing our annual family tradition, here’s our first Christmas tree photo in our new home <3

It’s been a big, busy month full of fun and festivity! Here’s a snap shot of some of the things we got up to in chronological order:

‘Under the Sea’ themed Family Day

Kaz invited us to her corporate family day event for the second year! P-chan enjoyed lots of free food, popcorn, fairy floss, seahorse balloon twisting, ball pit toddler play area, petting zoo, a photobooth, met Santa and received a present to take home! The decorations were on point! Thanks Aunty Kaz!
