G2 ready for Macchu Picchu...

Just a warning note. If you, like us, occasionally use a wheat pillow in winter, do check it for threadbare patches. Otherwise you may waken up as we did, fearing a sudden infestation of large bedbugs which turned out to be toasted wheat kernels which had spread into a surprising number of little indents in the mattress...Muesli anyone?

Ali and family were here for the weekend. She made two pairs of baby slippers as presents for friends' babies. Katie and I have placed an order for a pair, but made of sheepskin. I thought since it was my sewing machine I was in with a chance...

 

Princess (G2) was also here of course, as was her Dad. We all got to hang out a bit together. Jimbo is her favourite, which is quite lovely to see. This grandparenting role is extra special- and more delightful than I had anticipated, though of course we get to sleep all night in our role...

Want some of my biscuit, anyone?

 

Stories are such fun. At least for me. Watch her reaction at the fly buzzing... And note my bilingual approach...

 

 

 

Poor little G1 is sick. He looks quite pitiful, and is hoarse from so much crying. Perhaps I should feel more sorry for his parents,who have not had much sleep for the last 4 nights. Think they may be seeing the positives of the Chinese one child policy...
