Even though I knew we were going to paint the laundry, I still was not prepared for the actual moment when DH said "Quick! What are you going to do with this wall?"
I grabbed my camera, took a few snappy shots and started thinking about how I would do a layout about it. DH happily painted over the wall in undercoat and I sat with 4 relatively useless photos and regretted that I didn't take a better record of our height records. Oh well! What's done is done. On a different day I might have cried about it.
So I promptly measured the kids (those still left at home, that is) and did this layout - a record of the height height chart we once had and the height of the kids for one moment in time.
Products:Making Memories White Stripe; Reeves paint; my stamp that I made for an Aussie Dare: 7gypsies stamp; Felt; Love You More brads; Prima Got Flowers; Marbig note paper; Dymo; Zig Millennium Pen; Random Ric Rac; Date Stamp. I got the idea of using Dymo over the top of lined area from Peg.

Love the Dymo :)
How brave are you for painting your wall! What an amazing piece of history. You did it proud with your beautiful page.
LOVE the layout Diane. We have a simular door at my Mum and Dad's - and yes it is in the laundry, the back of the Laundry door. We have measured many including pets :)
gorgeous gorgeous LO!! We had a similar thing in our house too and when renovating - I have 5 kids and our measurements are on a door jamb - we kept the whole jamb and its used in a linen press now (which is obviously easier than a whole wall)! :)
