Scultures By The Sea & Family Hangs
/
We got up early on Sunday morning and made it to the last day of this years Sculptures By The Sea. It was so worth it, while it was tricky to keep Faye’s little fingers of the artworks that had a “no touch” sign, it was such a great exhibit to go to with little ones. So much open space and opportunity to run around. Many artworks were also allowed to be touched, climbed or explored.
Sipping pineapple juice in the sun, seing amazing art with Ocean view… We truly are living in paradise.
Its the busiest time of year for me and I amaze myself how we somehow still make family time in between all the hustle. I am def loosing out on sleep these days working until late at night but its worth freeing up a few hours here and there to all do something fun together.
Faye’s favourite were clearly the large African animals that climbed out of manholes. She kissed the Tiger and was fascinated with the Elephants feet.
I love love love her age right now. (don’t I always say that?) It’s really fun to take her out and about now and she is getting more and more curious about the world.

I soak them up, these last beach days while I can. The same goes for baby cuddles.
Faye took her first steps and is really not slowing down with this growing up business.
She was so excited and happy with herself and keeps trying. 1,2,3,4 little wobbly steps before she lands on her bum or launches into my arms...
I have been tossing up if I wanted to share Faye's birth story with the world or to keep it private.
It's her story too, after all...
But then I remembered how much I had been empowered & inspired by all the positive birth stories that other women had shared. Sharing these stories feels very important to me, especially since there are always so many horror stories being told about birth.
One word upfront: I wrote this story down when it was all very fresh. Lying in bed, typing it with one hand on my phone. It has not been edited nor been creatively written. It just the words as they came to me at the time. Real and raw...
