I have the week off work. Wednesday, we're off down to Devon to see my parents, and finally my Nan will meet Aliza. In the meantime, there are plenty of errands to be run. Including getting myself a haircut, which I've not managed to do since October. I suspect that's going to have to be done tomorrow now, though.
My sister Sara (aka
sister_sestina) and brother-in-law John came round yesterday for lunch, and to see their niece. In the end, we headed to TGI's, due to a lack of basic research on my part. That is, not really knowing local pubs suitable for a Sunday lunch, apart from The Orange Tree in Totteridge but we went there just before Christmas and the chances of just turning up on a Sunday and getting a table for 4+baby is unlikely.
Anyway, it transpires that this week it's half-term for their nieces (John's brother's kids), and they'll be staying in Devon with their Aunty and Uncle. So Aliza will have a 4- and 5-year-old to play with as well. They each made a card for her, which are all glittery and probably best kept in the bag lest the glitter get everywhere. The last time they "met" Aliza, she was still growing inside Alexis's tummy, and this has, apparently, been explained to them.
We still miss the cat, of course :-(
