{Thats Life Challenges

Well ive been slowly but surely working through these Thats Life Challenges from Nic Howards new book, they really are something different, everyone seems to be getting into the scrappin real life events instead of beautiful pics of their kids and i say go for it isnt this why we scrap to remember the little things life is all about the details, little things that get forgotten and lost in the husstle and bustle of daily living, i just hope i can keep up with it, so i stay motivated.

I cant wait to get the book and have a good read through, it seems like something you could do every year or once a month, i bet you could even make a little book on each topic if you had the time.
Lesson 1. Record a Daily Diary - but instead of recording the actual events, record the conversations, funny things that were said and the things that made you smile or laugh during the day.
Jack has just started to tell us that he loves us as big as the whole world, (from me telling him i love him more than anything in the whole world,) and Blakey too, i hope he always feels this way.






Lesson 2. Things I would Miss - meaning take a look at the routines that make up your life, the constants that you don't realise you will miss until somthing changes or it's no longer done.

I already miss this :O( nap time, i took this pic in February this year and its the last time Jack and Blake have had a nap together, (im sure its the last day nap Jack has had) im lucky to get just Blake down for a little rest now, they just wanna go go go...
A bit of a dodgy scan on this one oh well

Lesson 3. Daily Frustrations - you know the things that drives you nuts, things that annoy you and make life difficult at the moment, these things might only be temporary (teenager habits and lack of help/sticking to house rules etc.)
I am still yet to complete this final frustrations challenge as i have so many of them narrowing it down to just one is becoming somewhat of a problem, see this is where the little book idea comes from i could write a new book everyday LOL
Oh and if anybody has any great suggestions for a baby name im all ears, only three weeks to go and still no certain name for our little one, i cant decide on anything ive got some names i dont mind but nothing really that i just love, oh well im sure it will come.

37 down 3 to go
Til next time...
