Love your photo of Little B snoozing - reminds me of my 13 month old daughter - all that cuddly baby chubbiness and the dimples on the knuckles!

Great news about your mum and loving the 90 minutes. I was gutted when mine all dropped their lunchtime naps and grew up. So cute. I love when they wake up and they have extra red cheeks and are a little sleepy still - mine used to get smothered with kisses in this gorgeous state......

Oh, such a beautiful sleeping boy! And how lucky is he to be slumbering under such a gorgeous blanket? Bliss!

There's something about knowing your time is limited that makes it all the sweeter. I'm so glad to hear your mother is doing better and the attic's inhabitants are getting back to fun.

Cannot wait to see what you are going to do with that layered thingy that I see there behind the goodies...in the meantime, could you pass me a cupcake please? They sure look delightful!

Love those baby curls!!!!!!! I think it would be more fun to just snuggle up to him and take a nap too, but realize that may be the only time you have for a bit of quiet time to catch your breath and re-group for the rest of the day.

I have to admit I've also been curious about the hooks you use. I should have known they would be bright and colorful and polka-dotty!
I was wondering if I could persuade you to set up an Attic24 facebook page that we could become fans of. It would be so nice and convenient to see new posts pop up on my facebook feed. Just a thought...I love it when you post!

Hurry, Hurry, Lucy!!!! The suspence is killing me... I truly love all of your Hooky projects. I am currently makeing the Granny Stripe blanket for my sweet ten yr. old grand daughter. She checks my progress every time she visits and is decorating her bed room with all the wonderful bright cheery colors.. Thank You for such fine clear instructions. So very glad to hear your Mom is doing well again!!! Give her our good wishes from Indiana USA

PS. I wonder if you've made your spotty crochet hook 'handle' yourself?

Please, please come back soon and put us out of our misery!!!

I too love those little curls! When our Twins were tiny, we didn't cut their curls until they were around two years old. I just couldn't bear to. Well, once whilst grocery shopping, a sweet little lady came up and said , "Oh, how proud you must be of your adorable twin girls!" lol!
Well, needless to say, Dad decided it was now time for his 'dudes' to get their first haircut.
Sweet memory. :)

What a happy photograph. It's hard to believe that Little B is growing up so fast, as it just seems like yesterday, you announced you were pregnant. Can't wait for the Tah Dah moment!
