TWELVE MONTHS

And in a blink of an eye, Darcy is 1.

What a tremendous year, watching this little one grow, learn and develop.

You constantly babble, your favourite morning poop spot is in your high chair, you hate the feel of grass on your feet, you love textures in your hands, you enjoy making noise and music, you can push your toy cars and aeroplane and you’re exploring every day.

Never did we know so much drool, poop and tiredness. It doesn’t matter, because we love you to the moon and back 💙 🌙

ELEVEN MONTHS

Learning the concepts of “in” and “on”, cruising, applauding your mini achievements, plenty of drool.

Page turning, smooshing and banging food, bringing conjunctivitis and gastro home from daycare and trying to catch water in your mouth under the shower.

TEN MONTHS

Pulling to standing, riding on Daddy’s shoulders, road trip to Newcastle and lots of cafe high chairs.

Progressing to baby led weaning, unsure about the swing, loving “It’s Not My…” touchy-feel books, hating the feel of grass on your feet.

NINE MONTHS 9️⃣

You’re on the move crawling every day; Mummy and Daddy struggle to keep up with you! First fevers, three top teeth and learning to wave and clap.

Food refusal, night wakings return, you hate wearing a hat, painting at daycare and endless high pitched squeals.

Today is Archie’s 2nd birthday 💙🐅 Another

Today is Archie’s 2nd birthday 💙🐅

Another lap around the sun and every day, we wish that you had gotten to stay. At this milestone, we hope that you would have spoken your first words, you may enjoy dancing to the Wiggles or whether your favourite TV show would be Bluey or Paw Patrol. We wonder if you would like dinosaurs or trains, eating banana pancakes and maybe swinging a golf club with Daddy. We imagine weekend sessions at the local playground, building sandcastles at the beach and if Mummy would have given up trying to get you to wear your shoes.

On Archie’s birthday, we are reminded that loss is the greatest paradox; with great grief comes great love.

In honour of our Archie Tiger, we now make annual donations totalling $365 to nominated charities to mark the last 365 days without our firstborn child in our arms and in our home. The best birthday gift that you can give us to honour his memory other than using his name or lighting a candle, is to consider making a donation to one of the below registered Australian charities that tirelessly work to support bereaved parents like us.

EIGHT MONTHS

The appearance of two bottom teeth, the endless drool continues, sophisticated babbling and developing your palette.

Your first time being sick, you’re on the brink of crawling, learning to use a straw and pushing yourself up to sitting in your crib 😵‍💫
