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,

It’s been such an exciting month full of fun Christmas activities :D

We had a big day out on Saturday, spending most of the time in the city at Darling Harbour. After filling our bellies with delicious burgers and chips from Ume Burger, we headed to the kids playground where we stayed for the next few hours. The best thing about this playground is all the water features and fountains, which was again, a huge hit for P-chan. He had an absolute blast running around touching every fountain and exploring on the rocky surfaces. I loved seeing the sheer delight on his face as he splashed water with his little hands and feet :3 Hubby did an amazing job capturing all these precious little moments <3

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 :)

Dear Chibi,

Christmas is here! Wishing our family and friends a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! :D

This year we got ourselves our first Christmas tree! Thankfully Champy’s been a good boy and hasn’t destroyed it. We want P-chan to love the festive season as much as we did growing up ^^.

Dear Chibi,

This summer has been rather crazy with all the bushfires and haze… yet we managed to get a rather cool, comfortable Sunday which was a relief.

I headed out to the city in the morning to get my hair cut and coloured for the New Year. I always want it cut, but once it’s cut I want it long again lol. Hopefully P-chan will appreciate less hair poking his face, though he’ll probably still tug at it and try to eat it :’D.

Dear Chibi,

This year Kaz wanted us to bring P-chan along to her company’s annual Family Day. It always looked so good in pictures, so I was pretty keen to go (probably more so than P-chan XD)!

The event starts at 3pm so we headed out earlier to Rhodes Waterside to check out the Christmas deco and maybe finally get a photo with Santa ^.^

AND WE DID :D How cool is this GoT inspired chair? So hipster. They gave us free prints as well as a ‘Baby’s Christmas’ book for P-chan :3 Yay!

And just around the corner there were 3 more Christmas themed backdrops for more photos!

Dear Chibi,

Christmas is just around the corner :D (Holy moly what a year it has been!) As this will be P-chan’s first Christmas, we took him to see Santa today to kick start the holiday spirit. We already have our new Christmas tree set up at home, it’s just missing a few finishing touches ^.^ Oh so exciting.

How pretty is the backdrop? *_* We didn’t end up getting photos with him, but it sure was tempting! Should we..or should we not?

Donald and Daisy Duck. Pretty random, but hey I’m not complaining 8D ahahaha. It’s a bit creepy how you can see Daisy’s human arm.
