Now they have their little angel Aleeia, these ?new parents can’t wait to celebrate!
Jodi Anasta’s huge blue eyes light up like a sparkly tree bauble at the mere mention of Christmas.? The gorgeous young mum is brimming over with excitement at the prospect of her first yuletide with baby Aleeia.
“I’ve been Christmas present shopping for months!” Jodi sheepishly admits with a laugh. “And I know our two mums will spoil her rotten. It’s going to be a really special Christmas this year. I’m so excited.”
Jodi’s adoring husband Braith Anasta is a former champion rugby league player but he knows sometimes it’s best to stay on the sidelines, happily admitting he stays out of the way when Jodi shops.
“I love the affection and spending time with Aleeia, but Jodi is the shopper. I leave it to her because it’s Jodi and she loves to shop. Mum will ?spoil her too. I know how much she loves shopping for ?a little girl.”
Jodi, Braith & baby Aleeia: We’ve never been so in love!
Above anything else, Jodi says Christmas is about family and she still counts her first one with Braith’s as one of her most special. “I really felt part of their family, even though we’d only been dating for eight weeks,” she says.
“I realise now we had already fallen in love, and of course that made it even more special.”
Braith, 32, says he wants to give Aleeia a “magical” Christmas just like he experienced growing up near the beach in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.

“My best memories are at Christmas,” he says. “It’s everything – the weather, swimming at the beach, the food and the presents… it’s always huge and I want Aleeia to feel the exact same way about her Christmas.”
