On the 18th of every month I try to record a few details about Harry's day and complete a page in his mini-book. It's a bit like Shimelle's 'Scrap Your Day' class but focused on the new things Harry has done over the past month, the funny things he says and what he did on this day. I do the same for Charlie on the 23rd of each month.
I am not entirely up-to-date with the scrapbooking side of Harry's minibook, or Charlie's come to that. But if I take a few photos and write down a few things, I can do the scrapping when I have time.. at least there's the theory.
Harry's day:
Morning:- hot Shreddies and raisins for breakfast, plus 'milksnake' (Actimel + milk)
- drawing/scribbling on the dining table, occasionally on paper
- watching Postman Pat videos (for the umpteenth time)
- dragging chairs into the kitchen to help me wash the dishes (please, no)
- drinking 'pink milk' (strawberry Nesquik) and eating Humzingers
Lunch:
- 'bubbly cheese' on toast with Branston pickle and baked beans
- throwing cutlery on the floor, smearing bean-juice on face and hair
- NOT liking having face and hands wiped
- taking Charlie to Nursery, riding on the Buggy Board
- NOT liking being dragged away from Nursery
- having a nap (peace at last..)
- a quick Jaffa Cake before going to collect Charlie
- splashing in some DEEP puddles in the park
- home for a complete change of clothes
- back out to the charity shop (bought some lovely eyelash wool) and newsagent (the new Craft Stamper magazine.. couldn't leave it there)
Evening:
- dragging chairs into the kitchen to help mummy make dinner (nooooo....)
- pizza, oven chips, carrots and sugarsnap peas, followed by an ice-cream for dinner (we don't eat junk food every day, honest!!)
- bathtime = let's see who can splash the most water onto the floor
- stories - 'Shhhhh, Duck - Don't Wake the Baby!' by Jez Alborough is favourite this week.
- bed at 8pm.
- Going to the park
- Chasing Poppy the cat
- Splashing in puddles
- Postman Pat (Po-po Pat) - he can name all the characters
- Helicopters (Ta-ta-ta), ambulances (La-la-lance) and trains
- Scooting around on his trike
I'll be back soon to share my mini-books as they are so far.. now there's an incentive to get some scrapping done! ;o)
