SOME OF OUR FAVOURITE FRIENDS

We've been gallivanting again.

We left home first thing on Saturday morning. The new car seat (yes, I finally managed to find a pink one!) had its first outing and proved a success - Alice was asleep before we got to Bristol! We got to GFW and Aunty J's by noon, Alice got to meet Baby L again and considering Alice isn't quite 21 months old herself she did pretty well.

Yesterday we hit the road again - to visit the H's to celebrate W's 3rd birthday. Alice was OK to begin with but got clingier and clingier as visitors and the clown arrived, she wouldn't be separated from me at all for over 2 hours, until the food arrived!! She did relax eventually - the distraction of food and balloons helped alot, by the afternoon she was happy to follow the big boys around the garden and investigate alone - she was quite independent once she'd settled in! She was asleep within 5 minutes of leaving.

Today we said 'Goodbye and thank you!' to the C-Ds and crossed Surrey once again to visit my GM M. It was lovely to see her - she especially enjoyed playing football with Alice and feeding Alice raspberries fresh from the garden, yummy!! Alice once again fell asleep very quickly - love that car seat!!

Once again it's lovely to be home, Alice and the dogs agree and we've all shared lots of cuddles since we've been home. Alice went to sleep very quickly, the dogs are keeping my feet warm (it's chilly tonight) and I'm tired too. Great friends, good times, long journeys and delightful home-comings - special times!
