One baby book or two?

MrsVo

I was planning on getting one baby book and just keeping up with both girls' stats in it, but then it occured to me that if each girl wanted her baby book in the future there wouldn't be a way to split it.  What did you do??

I bought two Twice Upon A Time, which is a twin baby book.

Of course, it would have been helpful if I'd written stuff down in them...but I hope to do that in the next few weeks!!!

i have 2... but very little info in them

I think I'm going to do their baby book scrapbook style with my Creative Memories software.  I'll make one book, have info for both of them in it, then I can just have 2 albums printed.  I'm behind on DS's book and can't imagine actually having to update 2 books in addition to his!

We bought two. I don't recall the last time I wrote anything in them

2 babybooks, simple fill in the blank ones for the first year. Inside are their birth announcements, foot prints, birth pics- first b-day invite, baptism invite etc, Then I am keeping a journal for each of them and writing them a letter every 6 months on their development.

I've just been collecting stuff since pg with the girls and plan to give each a personalized box of memorabilia when they get older. I heard or read about this somewhere and liked the idea (basically b/c I'm very disorganized and the thought of 2 baby books was daunting). So, I've just made duplicate copies of pg pictures, divided up u/s shots, month to month pics, kept their baby bracelets, baptism certificates, first haircut curls, etc.

I'm doing two baby books - one for each boy!

I really like that idea!  Thanks for sharing!

I bought two babies books and started filling them out and HATED doing it. So, now I'm more religious about writing in our blog and at the end of the first year, I'm going to use blog2print.com to turn it into a book. I'm also keeping binders for each of them that I can easily stick in other stuff, like u/s photos, cards they receive, and other keepsakes.

This. Ooops. I have kept track of major milestone occurences in my iPhone though. I should get around to updating the actual books though and add some pictures.

My baby books are blank.  But I do have several milestones recorded in my iphone calendar.

Unfortunately, lots of milestones, such as first smile, that occurred in the period when I don't remember things, will have to be left blank.

Two. They're going to be lumped together so much in their lives anyway. They deserve to have their own separate books and logs of milestones.

Two baby books. Someone also gave us outfits that came in keepsake boxes...I am putting some things in there too....like their outifts we took them home in, the hats they wore in the hospital, etc.

I got two because I wanted each baby to have their own book with their own stats and information. I figured there will be plenty of things they have to share and I didn't want their baby book to be one of them.
