Another suitcase in another hall

It's Thursday so it must be time to pack up and move on to our next destination. Alice is currenly napping, preparing for another journey on another plane, which will take her halfway through her epic adventure to the bright lights of Sherfield on Loddon. Is she ready for Aunty Beth? Is anyone ever?!

She's very much enjoyed being oop north and has learnt lots of new things here (how to sit up/ that she likes to sing along to Abba at the top of her voice (thank goodness I didn't take her to see Mamma Mia) and that, in other households, baby clothes get ironed.

On Sunday, we will stop being a one-parent family when we meet Stu in Washington DC. We have three nights there and then set off to our final destination, San Diego, to meet Alice's new chums, Caroline and James.

We'll be back on 2nd September to report on those exploits, so until then, some photos of Alice learning to sit.

Propped up on her hands
