Re: Baby Books

  • I have one for each girl and I try (haha) to fill it out each month. Okay I filled it out each month for A until 1. I'm still working on C's.

  • DS's is all filled out (I was on the ball for being 19/20!)

    Ava's has a few things filled in and Faith's is completely blank. I really need to do them.

    I do have the First Year Calendar for each of them that I was pretty good about filling out.

  • I have two baby books (one is kind of funny, one is sweet) and we did have them filled out up until about two weeks after his birth. LOL. I need to sit down and keep them up to date.

     I want to do an actual scrapbook for him with pictures and various memorabilia from his life so far ("report" from first day of daycare, etc) but that is just gathering dust, sigh.

  • Ugh, i am so bad at this stuff. I have a book for each of them, and they are both sitting on shelves in their closets, complete with a pile of stuff on top of each book that I want to put in there. mommy fail....

  • Yes, I have a baby book for DS and it is mostly filled out. The pages for current events and "all about Mommy" etc are not really filled out. I am going back through and adding pictures and I just added his birth story and my blog posts since there were several "reflections from the heart pages" so I thought those would fit. The book goes up to age 3 so I'll continue filling it out.

    I also have 2 photo books (Shutterfly) for 0-6 and 7-12 months and one big one for all his week and month pictures. I am thinking I will make an annual family yearbook photo book from now on, rather than something DS-specific (though I'll probably make photo books for the grandparents from time to time).

  • I have a traditional one I bought from Hallmark, it is filled out.  Also after J was born I started doing annual family photobooks on Shutterfly.  Obviously they are mostly pictures of him and DH, because I am typically behind the camera, but I have pages for each season and also for events like birthdays and vacations.  When I was taking the monthly pictures during his first year, I have a page for each month with those pictures on them.  It's nice to be able to just go through all my photos from the year and put together a snap-shot.  I am determined to do the same for this LO

    It is the same way for us which makes me kind of sad. I wish DH would think to pick up the camera.

  • DD has a baby book and everything about her is filled out. I haven't bothered to put photos in it, but I probably should...

  • I had 2 for D1 plus one of those 1st year calendars and I never filled any of it out.  I ended up getting a Mom's One Line a Day book when she was just over a year and I've kept that up.  I have the same book for D2.

    I do regret not documenting much of D1's firsts.

  • We didn't do a baby book for DD and won't do one for DD#2 either - I feel like its too much to keep up on. But what I did for DD is keep a document saved on the computer and I'd type in when she did all her firsts, plus I have a little container where I save special things. Now its more cute art projects that go into it, but it was things like her hospital bracelet and the newspaper from the day she was born, etc.

    I'll do the same stuff for DD2 I hope.

  • Someone bought me a book for my shower...but I have yet to fill it out.  Let's be realistic here, I'm behind on so much!  Her nursery isn't even complete...as in the crib is there but I've been too lazy to even put sheets on it since she sleeps in her room.  Can you sense the irony as I'm online and watching the Today Show (DVR'd)?

    Anyway, I documented my pregnancy with photos on an almost weekly basis and I plan to create a scrapbook of that and then work on baby stuff.  It's all overwhelming and I'm not that creative.  I'm trying to take it one thing at a time.  I have been jotting down her "firsts".  I've also thought about re-starting my blog to document this for family members out of town, but that's another thing I'm procrastinating on.

  • ummmmm - no.

    actually, I don't even have any albums (except online).

     She's been asking alot about when she was a baby and we had to look at all the pics on my shutterfly accounts. ..  I really need to make her an album.  I'm just not good at it - so I procratinate, but now. .. I'm starting to feel weird about it and I'm forgetting things, so I really need to get on it soon.
