The Dinner Ladies have arrived in Adelaide! Their team has so kindly gifted me with a box of made-with-love meals and therefore gave me the gift of time and a worry-free happy tummy this week. I've been sharing with you guys some of the meals we've had over on IG stories.

The husband and I finally managed to go on our first child-free date since becoming parents 15 months ago! My restaurant choice for this special day was Chicco Palms because number 1: Instagrammable interiors (because that's so important, right?lol) and number 2: I absolutely love Italian cuisine.

Hello to our first family staycation of the year, thanks to South Australia's Great State Voucher. It's funny, even though we don't live too far from the CBD, we're only ever really exploring the CBD when we're staying in a hotel in the city. Our most recent CBD staycation was at Intercontinental Adelaide. This time, we stayed at the fairly new Crowne Plaza Adelaide.

Adelaide Fringe 2021 has officially kicked off and we had the pleasure of being invited to the opening weekend for children's event, Monski Mouse's Baby Disco Dance Hall. As a new mum, it was my first time to attend a children's show and I didn't really know what to expect. All I knew was that I have a very cheeky, friendly toddler who loves to go out and also loves to dance. So obviously this show would be perfect for her, right?

I am so happy about today's playground find! For the first time, my 14-month-old was actually immediately excited to play. She basically ran with excitement at this playground. I'm sure seeing some bigger toddlers contributed a lot to her excitement. But also, the way the playground was set up was very conducive to toddler play. Even better is that Sheidow Park is only a short drive from where we're located in the South of Adelaide.
