North Dakota Babies

Help me brainstorm (please) :)

I'm going to go ahead & make our Baby's 1st Year book instead of buying one. What pages are included in yours, or what else can you think of? Here's what I have so far:

The day baby is born--details, who came to visit, etc.

I'm going to make a page for each "month day"

Birth announcements

1st smile

1st laugh

1st tooth

1st rollover

1st crawl

1st word

1st steps
