My Papa's birthday! {Chloe}

Yesterday was my Papa's birthday! but we celebrated it last Sunday because, you know, my Papa comes back too late on Monday (we are already sleeping I mean).

I made a birthday cake with Mama, it was a chocolate one and it was my best cake ever. I leaked the bowl when we made that cake (sorry no pictures...). MIAM!!!

Chocolate cake made by me (Chloe) and Mama

Time to blow the candles... who is gonna do it? (Papa is shy...)

Mathias is enjoying his slice of cake! 


Q.: But where is the birthday boy? 
R.: We told you already: he's SHY!

Unwanted guests?

This is how it looks when the kids come in at 6am while on holidays... the father can't open his eyes, the mother had to get up to pick up her screaming son from his travel cot (in the morning cold - ha) and she's pretty awake by now... at least enough to take a picture!
The daughter looks sleepy, but in real life she's jumping up and down on the bed :(

... and you dare to call this a holiday? haha...

Cousins having a good time! {Mathias & Miguel}

Mathias and Miguel have the same age and it was so cute to see them play together... of course they were the occasional fights over toys, but overall Miguel was very happy to have a mate his age around to share the fun!
Lovely boys :)

They both got a haircut since then... 

Aren't they cute playing together?

Good Friday Family Lunch {Chloe}

Hello, this is my last post about my holiday in Australia! The day before we left we had a big lunch with all my cousins... it was so much fun! I could choose what I wanted to eat, especially the dessert... later in the afternoon I told Mama that I had eaten too much chocolate!

The day we saw wild kangaroos... {Chloe}

I forgot to tell you about the day we saw three wild kangaroos when we were still in Jervis Bay! The first one was very small, Mathias didn't see it because he was sleeping. The second one is pictured here below.
And the third one was on the way back to the car from another beach... we were climbing up the hill when we saw a very big kangaroo staring at us from the top (he was bending over at first). Then he suddenly stood up and we got really scared because he was maybe 2m high! then he jumped toward us, and we started walking back - Papa said the kangaroo wanted maybe to box with him. At the end he turned right and disappeared in the bush... and we quickly went back to the car! OUF!!!


 Very cute! I loved watching the kangaroo eating the grass.


 It was windy and a bit cold!


 Papa and Mathias are always ahead of us!


 What are they checking out in the sky? a plane?


After we had a good play in the water. Mathias really loved playing in the waves, he was laughing a lot!


Next I will post photos of our outing to the local zoo with my cousins... stay tuned!

Featherdale zoo {Chloe}

On Good Friday, just one day before leaving Australia, we went to the local zoo with all my cousins. We had a blast! The kangaroos are free and you can feed and touch them... Mathias and Miguel got very excited!
We could also see koalas, wombats, dingos, a crocodile, many many birds and also farm animals.


Koalas are mainly sleeping so when one is awake, woouh!!

An afternoon at Clovelly beach - Sydney {Chloe}

On Thursday afternoon the weather was really good so Papa & Mama decided to bring us to the beach once more (we were leaving on Saturday). We drove from Plumpton in the suburb (where my Papa grew up) to Clovelly beach which is next to Coogee Beach...

 This is Clovelly beach, probably one of the smallest beaches in Sydney! I was disappointed because they were no big waves to scare me... I like to be scared by the waves!

 Free show!
