For Today : October 15th

You might like to take a look at Stokke high chairs When Anna is a little older. We have them for our two little ones and at 4 and 6, they still use them. The chairs are fully adjustable in height for seating and feet. The plus for us was that they moved right up to the table making the kiddos feel a real part of what was going on. They are even strong enough for adults to sit on them.

Thanks for sharing Ali - I think I need to go thru this process also - love the point forms.
Also loving your class Ali - it is just so much fun. Still looking for some pictures that got tucked in a safe place - know what I'm looking for, but can't find them.
Have a great weekend.

I really like post like this one.
And what a clever idea with the keyboard.
Your whole family is cool!

Awesome! I can do journaling for a layout that way, since I usually struggle with that one...

Oh so sweet! Have a blessed weekend Ali.

I love it when you do this kind of journaling. You are so "real" and an inspiration to all of us....to make it simple! I wished I could have joined your class but I am in school (3 classes) and working 30plus hrs a week so I knew I wouldn't have time. Hoping you do another one so I can join. Have fun with friends and family!!

I loved reading this. I also loved how my 1st layout turned out for your online class, even though my large photo was less than ideal in quality. Taco salads sound yummy. Need to add that to my dinner list. Have a wonderful weekend!

How funny...I had exactly the same thought as I looked at Ali's photo!! My son is 4 years-old and uses his Stokke chair as much as he did when he was a baby! I highly recommend them.

Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend...Leora

Love this post Ali! I was trying to figure out how to journal a moment in time. This gives me great ideas. Have a great weekend!

Ali...you are always inspiring to all of us! Thank you for being who you are!! Have a great weekend with your family.

Two things. :) First honeycrisp apples are just the best things in the world! I just discovered them last week and I am surprised everytime I take a bite because they are just that good! I need to pick up some more asap because I ate them all!
And the other thing, I watched your class yesterday and when you said something about not needing to know all the details and just documenting what you do know, a story I have been wanting to tell for years just clicked with me! My grandmother was a scrapbooker, not in our sense of scrapbooking, but in the traditional sense and she recognized the value in passing on her stories to me so I could pass them further. And several times she told me the story of her life during the depression and how she finally was able to get a job, and other details about her life then, and I was so stuck on what she was paid per week, because I remember her telling me several times and I just can't remember the number. And I felt like she wanted me to remember it, but I just can't. So I have hesitated in telling that story for literally years. And finally yesterday I did not do my Y&T homework lol, but I did scrap that story, and told what I do remember, because in another 10 years I won't even remember that, and I just tweaked it to talk about not only what she told me but my experience of being told the stories in her house, where we sat, the timeframe, etc. It just spilled out of me. So thank you so much for that little tidbit of wisdom. :)

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Stokke chair. Got my fitgeting 2 YO to sit still at the table. Also, UMCKA, you can get at whole foods, take when on the verge of getting sick. 7 of my frinds just dodged colds this month. You have to take it IMMEDIATELY when you feel blah!

I totally have plans to get a Stokke of those when she is a bit bigger :). For now this one we have has been awesome (totally did not anticipate how much I would like it).

Love this little capture of what's going on right now. (And now I want to go buy some honeycrisp apples.) Can't wait to dig into Week 3 of your class. :)

wonderful Ali! may just have to do this myself....
I am in your class but a bit behind, still trying to make time with my busy schedule to fit it all in...
so inspiring so far.
thanks : )

I love the photos, and all you tell.
Thanks for the class. I´m very happy because I do my first Lo digital, and it was easy.
You are a crack in my life!!
Kisses

That picture totally cracks me up! Thanks for sharing!!

Great idea for a LO, Ali, thanks for sharing. Definitely worth doing one of these every six months or so, as a record of how your daily life changes. Fab recommendation. You are a font of inspiration :)

I love this post, Ali. Thanks for the glimpse into your life!
