Hi Ladies!
It occurred to me at around 2am this morning that I'd like to have a baby book for this little guy and that I might want to have it before I head to the hospital. Do any of you have one that you recommend? I want something that I can write in and store keepsakes in (so a little scrap booking component). And I'd love to have one that last for years (I still have my own baby book and it cover things all the way through my grandchildren- yikes!).
Thanks in advance!
Re: PGAL Lurker looking for baby book recommendations
You mean the book I spent $25 on and has all her pics and keepsakes stuffed into it?
Yeah...I'm no help there.

I bought "The First 1000 Days" by Nikki McClure and really love it. It's unique and has little illustrations throughout. I've been gluing/taping things in even though it's not ideal for scrap booking just fine.

Mine is also from an Etsy Seller -- EdnaMae. It was low on the "cutesy" factor and is in 3-ring binder form, so you can pop pages back and forth or add blank pages if you tend toward scrapbooking.
Now if I could only find the time to catch up on my entries in DS' book!

I'd suggest you get a wall calendar to write milestones on. When you get free time you can then transfer info to the baby book...but the reality is that you're going to be too busy or too tired to do it at first. Having a place to store the info that I always know right where it is. Priceless.
