A wee shot of Niamh at 16 weeks old - she's 6 months old now and I can't believe how big she is!

Today's challenge from Problogger was to write a list post. He taught us:
8 Reasons Why List Posts are Powerful for Bloggers
1. Lists are Scannable
2. Lists keep posts succinct
3. Lists look ‘neat’
4. Lists can be comprehensive
5. Lists are persuasive
6. Lists can add to the ease of writing
7. Lists go Viral
8. Lists break down the complicated
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Then I realised that what I had just written could probably count as a list post!  Tempting as it was to leave it at that, I set my brain into first gear and had a wee muse to myself as to what my list post should be!
Problogger gave us some excellent examples of list posts, a couple of examples being: and
Also useful was a list of 301 list posts!
It did occur to me that this is a technique I have probably employed often, especially with my photo blogs. And many Xangans also use this as a means to blogging.
So I decided to keep my list short and to make it personal.
