Today would have also been Altarra’s 32nd birthday, if she were still with us. She would probably have 2 or 3 kids, be living in Sydney and be crafting it up every weekend. I miss her. Thank you my families for a really lovely day, we had breakfast with JA’s side and lunch with mine, [...]
As promised, here are some photos from Rafael’s first Birthday Party. I LOVED doing all the decorations and setting everything up, it was so fun and I can’t wait to do it again and again every year. The welcome sign on the front door, I made using my Cameo cutting machine and different coloured textured [...]
I started planning Rafael’s birthday party when he was around 2 months old, no joke. I LOVE planning parties, and having a kid is just about the best excuse ever to throw an awesomely decorated party =) I went with an “Under the Sea” theme, and here is a sneak peek of the lead up [...]
I’ve been steadily getting some handmade decorations done for Raf’s birthday party, but now I’m on school holidays for two weeks it’s go time! My holidays will be devoted to planning the party, making the decorations, deciding what food to make and how to decorate it… in other words, my idea of bliss =) Susan [...]
My heart simply swelled whilst editing these photos. My boy is so handsome and sweet ♥ Rafa is now clapping on command, almost saying “muma” when he is upset, standing quite steadily holding on to things, crawling very fast and just generally being the best thing ever invented. Chatting to Sarzi on his Teddy Mat, [...]
(I’m posting this a month late, and will be doing his 11 months post right after this one!) I take a lot of photos throughout the month of everything that is happening in our lives, and I try to then put them all in my project life album once I get them printed. The problem [...]
Not sure if you’ve noticed, but I LOVE planning parties. I’ve re-capped birthdays past before, as well as documenting how much I love designing invitations, and how much I love baking and decorating for halloween! I also like to make birthdays a bit special for the doggies ;) I’m pretty much impossible to throw a [...]
Rafa hit 9 months on the 12th July. Many people have said 8-10 months was their favourite age of their babies, and I can see why. He is AWESOME right now. This month he cracked his first two teeth at the same time, top two front teeth on June 23rd. They just suddenly appeared (after [...]
Our little bubba is growing into a cute little boy! At swimming he is now going right under the water, he closes his eyes and mouth before getting dunked (most of the time). A few weeks ago the babies went down a slide (with the instructors help) into the water, and I was uncoordinated and [...]
At the end of Raf’s 7th month, he is sitting up by himself and playing for 20-30 minutes at a time, and really rolling to get around the room. Still no crawling or commando crawls, but we’re fine with that! I think it will probably happen soon, and we’ll have to baby proof the house. [...]
