AW: Alexa's 1st Year Book

I know a few of you have seen it on my blog but for those that haven't here it is! I had to re-order since the writing was nearly cut off on a couple pages but once again Shutterfly's customer rocks and they are sending me a new one for free so I was able to pay for and add a couple more pages to truly complete her first year (I had wanted to get it before her birthday party so I had to leave the last couple out previously).

    Hey Mary! I got the 12x12 padded cover book. I designed the cover (and the pages) in Publisher.

  • Love it. It looks amazing.  I just might have to use it for inspiration to make one for K.  I would love to have something like this from when I was a baby.

    Strong work!

  • Wow! It looks great!
  • Great job!  I have already started a baby book for B but now I'm kinda wishing I had planned something like that.

    Alexa has a traditional baby book as well. I thought about if I would skip that for the next kid(s) and just do these, but I think I would still do a book where I can write things in since Alexa's baby book covers a ton of things that I didn't add to this one - like specific dates she walked, talked, etc.

  • It is incredible...I am making a book for G as well on shutterfly, but my pages do not look half as good as yours is...I use to scrapbook the old fashion way lol, but I have gotten lazy in my old days, but I love how you made your pages...more so the words etc..how did you do this again...I want to try it out...
  • Kimberly, you did an AMAZING job putting Alexa's book together!  It is absolutely beautiful!  And it's so fun to see how much your little one has grown and changed over her first year.  Such a cutie!

  • This book is awesome!  You did such a great job documenting her first year.  Makes me feel like I need to do something like this for Caroline. 
  • That is so great!  Now I want to go back and do one for the last 4 years for Rowen.  I have so many pictures and they just sit in the computer!
