Dear Chibi,

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! Although this year we weren’t able to see our families and have a reunion dinner, we tried to continue the tradition at home. Moon Festival was always a really exciting time for me growing up as a kid, and I wanted P-chan to feel that joy and excitement too. This year we did some Moon Festival themed activities and listened to stories and songs. Of course, we played with lanterns and had moon cake!

Dear Chibi,

Spring is here in full bloom. We’ve had this peach blossom tree in our backyard for as long as we’ve lived here, yet it’s the first time I really noticed it. I guess we have been spending a lot more time in our backyard this year. Isn’t it so beautiful? We decided to capture more memories together on this beautiful warm day.

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,

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,

An afternoon capturing precious moments with our 19 month old <3 These family portraits are getting harder to take because someone keeps running awaaaaaay XDDD Good thing it’s Hubby doing the photographing… and the chasing ^.^

Dear Chibi,

Today we took P-chan to the brand new ‘Cutos Kids Cafe’ at Marina Square in Wentworth Point. It was our first time at a Kids Cafe, and I was lucky enough to score free tickets to the morning session. Everything was just so cute! With so many things for P-chan to play with, the 90 minute session almost didn’t seem enough. I guess that means we can come back next time ^^

The most attractive area was the massive ball pit and giant slide. Man those slides are fast!! I was totally not expecting that (Pretty fun though) XD

Mood 8D

Magnetic fishing… so cool!! I felt like a kid again hahaha.

Dear Chibi,

With the weather warming up this weekend, we took P-chan to a mini beach along the river. Quiet and secluded; we found the perfect spot for little P-chan to enjoy a bit of sand play :)
