Real life
What a change in the weather, back to grey skies and rain but it’s been a lovely week nevertheless. Last weekend started with a child-free day to myself, a rare treat and time for a haircut and spot of shopping. The weekend saw the arrival of mr sunshine and the building of a garden bench, then we had a lovely Tuesday seeing Hannah and Reuben from Mumsdays in the morning and a first haircut for Jossy too.
At the Hancock
I was delighted to be handed her first curl for our tots memory book, it completes her book and though I feel sad that we’re drawing a close on the ‘baby’ months this little girl is a joy to be around!
The hairdresser was brilliant with Joss, I recommend going somewhere you go yourself, I love our stylists at my local salon, friendly and bubbly they really put Joss at ease, they asked her about her day and talked to her like she was a grown up which she loves, then when she was relaxed she had a quick trim to get her used to the experience, there were no tears, no need for distractions and a lot of smiles!
Blog life
In blogland I had a really popular post on making a summer garland this week, if you’d like to make one yourself details are here!
Inspiration
I also lost a few hours this week on a bit of a bloggy jaunt which started with this beautiful book, following some of the blogs it mentions somehow led me to find the blog Junkaholique for which I am very grateful, what a treasure-trove of inspiration and loveliness!

I’m so glad Joss’ haircut went well! I take Reuben to our local but he’s really not keen on sitting still at all…can you believe it?!
Your garden bench and Harlan looks absolutely gorgeous. And the cushions?! I just want to lie there and read a book. Perhaps not today, given the rain!
Lovely list but I still want a piccie of joss’ hair! Or have I missed it? Will look back through this weeks posts, I’ve not caught up yet! Xxx
#mumslist
Gwenn’s fringe is getting quite long and some people have suggested getting some kind of clip – as if she would keep a clip in!!! So, an alternative would be to have it cut but at the moment I don’t feel ready for that. She’s only 13 months so I don’t think she would sit anyway. I have a pewter “first curl” pot when the time comes but I think it’s a whole off yet.
