Opinion Needed on Christmas Gift

in September 2012 Moms
So, for Luci's first birthday I made a shutterfly photo book of her first year.  It is cute and I love it, but I am her mommy.  DH thinks that we should take the book and make a few changes and give it to all of the grandparents for Christmas.  Do you think that is weird?  

The reason I ask it that my parents and his parents have other grandkids so is it weird to make a book of just one of them?  I just don't want to be tacky or weird.  TIA for your opinions!

    I don't think it's weird at all!  I'm doing that for FIL because it's either that or my DH wants to give him a kick in the ass.

    I don't think it is weird.

    Another option if you felt uncomfortable with it is to make another one and ask everyone for pics of the other grandkids. I did this last year for my grandfather with my girls and my cousins little girl. We made a calendar and I actually gave it to my mom and aunt as well. Everyone loved it.

    Not weird at all. The PSA about Walgreens brag book got me thinking. So yesterday I made 3 of the same book to give to my parents, DH's mom and one for us. I know my parents and DH's mom will appreciate it! Plus it was super cheap! Go for it!

    My brother does that with his kid for my parents. I don't find it weird at all.

    I gave the moms a shutterfly book with L's first 8 months and a Happy Mother's Day pic in the back. They loved it.

    I also make a calendar for everyone every Christmas that is ALL of the grandkids - well the parent's too. My family looks forward to it every year; I have been making them for about 5 years now.
