Any way you want to record the hive is the right way for you. You may have two hives and the next day remember what you did to each of them, but what about in several weeks time when you are planning your next inspection. I just record date, hive number(I have 35), weather, if the bees were ok or hot to handle, general observations, did I see the queen and note if she was marked. any issues and what I did in the hive and finally anything needing doing on the next inspection. Anything extra like individual frames is a waste of time for me but with you as a beginner you might find it interesting to be able to refer back.
Your profile only says your in WA, maybe you can edit it to be “Perth foothills WA”.
Cheers
