Ashley Tisdale holds onto niece Mikayla‘s tiny hand as they head out to lunch in Brentwood, Calif., on Wednesday afternoon (November 16).

The duo — joined by Ash‘s mom, Lisa — dined out at Cafe Vida for the afternoon before heading on back home.

“I love when my niece likes to jump on me and kiss my face but when she has cold? Not so cute….. I think u kno where I’m goin with this,” Ashley tweeted while out and about with her.

FYI: Ashley is wearing a One Grey Day sweater.
