Simon, I love the annual report to see what people highlight from their year. Seeing the stories of your Sarah and being a new parent is fun. I like how the squeal slide captures a specific moment, that I can imagine happening over and over again.

Gorgeous slides, very pleasing to the eye. For information, I like the "progress report" on her growth metrics especially. I love the "cheeky" humor of the nappy slide.

Thanks for the comments. Sarah, it's nice to hear what you got out of the squeal slide. I wasn't sure if it worked. Alice, the nappy slide was fun to make, and a bit staggering when you realise that's only 3 months worth!

Simon - Excellent work, I really like them. My favorite is the first (flickr) slide, because it took me a second to figure it out, and then it made perfect sense. I think my least favorite is the weight/length, but just because you placed the independent/dependent variables opposite where I'm used to seeing them, so at first glance it looked like height/weight were decreasing over time. But overall nicely done, they certainly tell a story.

Kate, you're right about the weight/length chart. Naughty me, I'm teaching graphs at the moment, so I should know better.
