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
