2 plus 3 makes 5!: Our Big Year

Thank you 2012.

You shocked us with such a life changing event. We weren't shocked for very long! Honestly, I couldn't imagine life without them, and Jordan and Amali.

So of course we had our wonderful triple blessing, we also had our first born start school. Jordan did such an amazing job of prep, he has made some lovely friends and really made us proud. I'm amazed at his Maths brain. He must get that from his Grandfather who was a Qantas accountant all his life! His teacher was wonderful, and as long as she stays at their school, she will teach the other 4 too! It has been lovely to see Jordan with his little brothers and sister these holidays. He is often found lying on the floor with them chatting away to them and showing a beautiful interest in them.

Miss Amali sure has grown up! She is loving her big sister role and is very good at it, but I had been noticing how she is very much over people saying 'oh wow, you've got triplets!' and 'aren't you lucky you've got 3 little babies'. She has heard it too much! I have made a conscious decision to make sure I invite her little friends over often. We recently did a cupcake decorating morning. Lots of fun and lots of mess.

In other 2012 events, Daniel went to Thailand with his younger brother, we bought (another) new car, we WON our amazing kitchen, we gained lovely new friends and lost some old ones, and Daniel and I notched up another year together :)

Here's a quick flick back through some favourite shots of 2012.
