Beans on toast is a good call.
We just painted our office a similar green colour. Your tulips are beautiful.

Your lunch looked awesome. And Hop is just adorable, she also has excellent taste in books.

Hop has such beautiful eyes.
I am surprised by how fascinating a day not leaving the house can be

Hop just gets cuter in every photo.
I’m afraid I can’t get onboard with your lunch though. Beans should never go on toast, they should be kept separate on the plate.

Re: Leap and Hop’s Thursday
We’ve just been for a walk and attempted and abandoned nap 3. This one is a coin toss usually anyway, but I’ve been trying to hold onto it as I want to push her bed time to help with the clock change coming up.
I have just started the cross stitch so it could not be less impressive Here are 3 I did when I was pregnant though, which will go above the cot in her room. I’ve done a few wee ones in the last month or so, but I got this one to keep me going and I probably won’t do anything with it - like Little My said, I find it quite soothing and it’s a nice thing to do in the evening to stop me mindlessly scrolling and actually have something to show for any time in front of the TV or listening to podcasts. I can get lots done during the day with Hop at the moment as she’s so happy to sit and play (we are folding washing just now, or will be in a tick ) so I like to use the nap times for me.
I am being summoned so here are some pics in a random order and probably upside down. We did do a selfie so I will add it!

Hop's having a whale of a time!
You're a cross stitch fiend! Can I ask where the beach lounger pattern comes from? #singlewhitefemale

Aww I love to hear that! I have now handed over to C as although I never clock off ;) he takes charge once his workday is finished He’ll do Hop wrangling and bath. Oh and he brought the flowers home on Monday, but did confess they were giving them away free in Sainsbury’s after having a Mother’s Day surplus.
Thank you so much for being part of our day and all being so lovely about my little Hop.

Oh sorry the cross stitch is from a Cross Stitcher magazine I got last year and have only finally caught up to attempting, but you can still buy the back issue and the sewing kit thing - I’ll find the links!

Your day has been a delight from start to finish! Take a picture of yourself having a drink, I say.
Super, thanks Leap.

Project pack: https://www.willowfabrics.com/magazine/ ... plash.html I think the link for the back issue is there too. They don’t send the pattern with the kit although I’d happily scan it in for anyone who wants it.

Oh! I'm only just joining in because home school has been full on today but it's so lovely to see Hop's wee face (and yours obviously too Leap )
Your house is gorgeous, and I love the tulips.

I've really enjoyed your day, Leap. But just so you know, there is no end to our nosiness and we won't mind if you want to show us dinner or your evening :gracious:

Re: Leap and Hop’s Thursday
Oh I’ll happily continue in that case Not sure how lazz knew I’d already cracked into the booze but I’m having a glass of pandemic panic Peroni, i.e. a giant bottle I bought accidentally thinking it was normal sized during my last online shop. I’m just about to feed the baby and then it’s early bath for her as she sounds absolutely wild (she’s in the kitchen with C and I’m in the living room queuing up the Tiger Netflix thing).
Edit omg my giant face! I’ve replaced it with visual evidence of mad Hop after C brought her through. My serene, nap skipping child

This has been very good so far. Hop (and you) is excellent.
