Aunty Tiss - the children's entertainer

So we arrived in Hull for Lucy's first Christmas and also her first trip to the enchanted and sacred land of East Yorkshire. It was also her 3rd tree in 3 days. Aunty Pinks was the biggest but Grandma and Grandad came in second.

Famously Aunty Tiss says she is not very good with babies and normally claims that she will have nothing to do with them until they are around fourteen. This is an exaggeration of course and she has played with Lucy before - but things have moved onto a new level! Tiss has purchased some furry slippers just so that Lucy can play with them (Lucy loves normal shoes but we don't let her play with them for obvious sanitary considerations).

She can also be seen quite clearly here interacting with hands as well as feet.

And frankly this picture shows that Aunty Tiss has gone the whole hog and become firm pals with her little niece.
