Dear Chibi,

Merry Christmas from our family to yours <3

With P-chan being a little older this year, we’re able to get him more involved and excited for Christmas! From helping us set up our tree and hanging the baubles, to singing “Jingle Bells”, he’s been asking to see Santa every morning when he wakes up :D

Here’s a roundup of some of P-chan’s Christmas adventures this month:

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 :)

~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,

Our MGHS catch up unintentionally turned into a parents group outing.. so we made a playdate out of it. Newway kindly hosted the morning tea at her place, and all the little ones got to play with Chloe’s many toys! It was so much fun watching them interact and play together. They were all so well behaved and relaxed. The adults made more noise than them. How were they so chilled?? XD

Dear Chibi,

It’s been 5 long months since we gathered like this. It was so lovely to see everyone again and P-chan had a great time playing with his little friends :3

We originally planned to meet at Bicentennial Park, but due to the chilly weather, Helen offered to host our afternoon tea at her place instead. Thank you Helen & Fong for having us and being awesome hosts :)

Dear Chibi,

Yesterday we spent the whole afternoon at Newway & Alex’s place; munching on delicious food & catching up with everyone. Hubby tried out a new pasta recipe with meatballs. It turned out quite nice, but it probably takes a bit long for a weeknight meal.

In our last group gathering P-chan was only 7 weeks old. This time he was awake to meet everybody ^^ yay.

Thank you Newway & Alex again for being great hosts! :D! It was another wonderful day and plenty of fun for the little ones :) P-chan, Mikayla and Chloe were all pretty exhausted by the end. Little P-chan even collapsed in my arm XD.

Can’t wait for the next one. Hopefully Troy can make it then :)

Dear Chibi,

There’s something comforting about hanging out with other mummies and their babies. Even better when they’re friends you’ve had since High School :)
