I am soon going to receive a new box with the new menu and I can’t wait to share with you all my journey on the new menu! I know I’m super excited for the wholesome goodness. Knowing that I will be fueling my body with ingredients that are the very best of the best. With no nasties included! I hope you love my blog post and stay tunned for more updates.

Gingerbread Man, Oscar Bear – That Gorgeous Big Smile!

I feel so very blessed to be this little guy’s Mumma Bear. Love you with all of my heart and more Oscar. xo You and your brother are my absolute everything and more.

Oscar Bear, dressed in his little Best & Less outfit. Blanket, homemade by a dear family friend and the cutest little Santa hat came with the little Gingerbread Man outfit.

I can’t believe that our little one is already One! Where does the time go? His 2nd Christmas is just around the corner…

My heart. My little cutie pie. Love how he giggles at everything and that smile is pure joy! I seriously feel like the luckiest Mumma on the planet, so very blessed every day.

Christmas 2018 – Little Oscar Bear aka Gingerbread Man. My Everything. xo

We had the best day today, together as a little family, creating magical memories. I love that this time of year can do that. Create traditions, create new memories. The older we get, the more important than ever before that this is. I have recently seen online that we only get 18 Christmases with our little ones. It’s so important to remember that. Of course, we hope to get more, but it’s making those childhood Christmas memories count. It’s so easy to see now how fast the boys grow up. When I met my husband, his nephews were only little themselves. Now they are all grown up. I am so looking forward to making this Christmas count, to make it hopefully the best Christmas which we have ever had as a family. To embrace the moment. Every single moment.

To visit the other gorgeous outfits that Best & Less have available for Christmas and all year around for the whole family, be sure to visit – www.bestandless.com.au.

The fam bam and I on the weekend after hitting the shops at The Myer Centre.
It was such a beautiful walk and I really loved this day and the memories we created together. Our eldest son played on the park playground, our youngest son giggled. The sun was shining, the wind was blowing. It’s a magical time of the year.
It’s Christmas. This day was the very first day of Summer. So long Spring-time.

We made Gingerbread Houses today. We had been looking forward to it all week.
I can’t wait to make this a tradition each and every year. It was so affordable to pick up the DYI kits too. We found them at our local Woolworths store. They can also be purchased online. You can visit – www.woolworths.com.au. The table styling pieces we mostly had already. I did pick up a Santa Writing letter kit for the boys too and we can’t wait to do this activity together before we visit Santa for our photos soon!
