  So, not exactly a journal, but I made DD a gmail address. I send her pictures and videos all the time. It is so easy since I'm constantly snapping pics on my phone. I highly recommend it. Also, it will give her a "grown-up" email in the future...not something dumb like bieberchik14.

  You could scrapbook your own together. There are tons on templets online, I'm sure pint rest alone has a billion ideas. Then it's more personal then just filing in pre printed blanks.

  
  

  (As I'm writing that, I'm saying to myself "no one has time for that!" and I'm jealous of whoever does scrapbook)

  My husband's aunt sent this to me and I thought it looked really cute. Not sure if I could keep up with it, but maybe at least for important things.

  I have a blog and I'm working on making Shutterfly "family yearbooks" so we'll have those to look back on!

  I have a scrapbook that someone made for me that I can just slide pictures or special items into (one of his little diapers, the business card of one of his doctors). But @lilnunz1 has a great idea! I am going to start that for Josh and do one for this LO, too.

  @flerlgirl and anyone else who does it. Just make sure you use your birthday when signing up for the email. Gmail requires you to be at least 13.

  I'm not much of a diarist myself, but a friend got me this, and it's been awesome: 

  https://www.amazon.com/Moms-One-Line-Day-Five-Year/dp/0811874907/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1392484068&sr=8-2&keywords=one+line+a+day+journal
  

  
  

  You get about 4 lines per day to write a sentence of two, and her kids love it when they do something that's journal-worthy. I didn't know what to write in there the few first months for my DD, but now that she's talking and doing things, there's almost always one thing every day that I want to remember. And it goes up to 5 years!

  @katekat8721 I've been making family yearbooks through Mypublisher too.  Yet another great idea I got from Younghouselove!

  These are amazing ideas. @lilnunz1,I will definitely be doing that for LO. What an awesome idea! @kibean, I'm going to try that postcard thing, too. I just pinned it. Thanks, ladies!
