You Are 3! You LOVE Superhero's and defeating baddies. You are VERY funny and VERY kind. I am VERY lucky to know you and be a part of your life. You had a great Superhero birthday in Centennial Park, with all your friends dressed up and running around. We had Superman Cake and Batman Cake and you got sooooooo many toys! As you went to bed you said "Thanks for my birthday mum." Made me feel very proud indeed. Thank you darling for being the coolest dude I know. MWA x

We're back. We've been back for a couple of months now and our great adventure seems like a distant memory. We have slid nicely into our new routine, pre-school, Tuesdays at Aunty Edrei's and Friday Football. You are all little boy and no more Toddler - you've even had a big boy haircut and goto the Swanies games with your Uncle Bill. Our trip was excellent and we achieved all we hoped to and more. You were easy peasy to potty train and you took to the swimming pool with gusto! You now jump in backwards happily as long as you have your arm bands on. I couldn't be more proud of you. We rode an elephant, saw crocodiles, snakes, scorpions, went to a water slide park, rowed around a man made lake in a kayak, slept in a tree house and flew around the bay on a jet ski! You were a terrific little traveller and just got involved in it all. You weren't very impressed with the mummified monk and didn't really notice the gleaming golden Buddha's but you were a little champ at traversing a hundred hot, sweaty markets in Bangkok and Koh Samui. You tried all the food and minded your P's and Q's Thai style with a little bow and a Kap un Kap. Spain and Portugal with Grandpa, Uncle Geoff and Elin were a hoot - we met old friends and made new ones in both countries. You loved hanging with Harry in London and got to play in snow for the first time. You picked up some 'interesting' language and habits from our friend Dylanito in Thailand and now have a penchant for Ninjas, Daggers, Sub-Machine Guns, Bullets and Death BUT since we've been back you've already mellowed on the death and destruction talk which is reassuring for me as your mum. We had so much fun together darling - perhaps we didn't dance as much as I would have liked but we hung out and talked about the world together and as I'd hoped I had nothing but time for you. Here's to our next big adventure and all of our daily adventures. Love you bub.
