Its suspiciously quiet here this morning...

Normally this is not the case at quarter past eleven on a Saturday morning. Fredu is lightly snoring the dog is buried under the duvet and the bub is in her bed sleeping like an angel. I of course have been clever and used the time to sweep and mop the floor. How exotic, yes! Nah but its so much easier to do when everyone is sleeping!

The heat has definitely subsided and after walking the pooch last evening we stopped at a hidden little terrace behind our flat to have a drink before heading home. I was down right chilly. good thing I had an extra little baby blanket to cover my legs with! I guess the whispers of autumn are drifting in. Today is overcast and grey but its good sometimes as it helps get stuff done during the day.

I think we are surely in the queue for the worst parents ever awards as 6 months into her life and we've only just installed some decorations for her room. Bad enough that we still catch ourselves calling it the 'spare room' instead of 'Sienna's room'... terrible terrible, I mean we don't even have any paintings or photos on her walls for decoration! I shall hopefully remedy this today in some way. Poor little sausage!

Hon and Naoko arrive next week for their first visit to Barcelona. It will be such a treat to see them as its been a long long time since I've seen my 'little brother'and his lovely wife. She is apparently very excited to meet Lilli dog... I'm just hoping she manages to behave herself. Being a teenager is making things a bit hairy (literally) as she is quite the little madam and of course it goes without saying quite a little bitch (literally).

The city right now is pretty much empty of my friends right now. Mele and Nico are the only remainders but I do believe they are soon off to Paris for a wedding therefore soon there will be none! It really is true about the city clearing out of locals at this time of the year. Vero is still in France and Joanna has returned to London to be with her parents for a short spell. Eric of course is or was here but is busy with an insane work schedule and blossoming new romance...

Jo Jo and her lovely girlfriend, Becks are set to roll in for a visit early Sept. Jo jo is anxiously awaiting a thrice-daily visit to her favorite gelato shop while here. I just love them they are so cool. Again it will be a great treat to have them in town for a couple of days and for them to meet Sienna of course!

Best get moving and get some more life-admin done while its still quiet here... it surely will not last long!
