  I would try etsy, or if you are creative get some ideas from Pinterest.

  Why not make your own? Buy a blank scrap book at Michael's or AC Moore (or any craft store) and then fill it in however you want. I personally prefer this method since baby books usually have stuff I don't want and don't have stuff I do. You can add photos, stickers, writing, etc. as you please.

  I always have the best intentions, but when left to my own devices my projects never get finished. Lol. I'll gladly pay for someone else's hard work.

  Pricey, but the front cover is adorable. How many pages and why is it so expensive? Lol

  @xsunshinelady15 I guess bc it's handmade and unique?! Lol I don't know but I really like it! It's 15 pages each page is two sided. Really thick high quality paper. There are little pockets to put things like the hospital bracelet,lock of hair, etc.
  
  I agree it's pricey! It was a gift. I love it.

  Barnes and Noble actually has some pretty nice ones. I'm going to look there again first.

  We got a geek baby book from B&N a few weeks back. Couldn't resist considering or nursery is Spider-Man and our son's name is gonna be Parker. You can get it on Amazon, too. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1440586195/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_MmfRvbAHM9385

  I've just done the one from babies r us (pink this time!) for all three kids. Bonus -- since it's the same setup, you can just copy the first four or five pages talking about your backgrounds and how you met. I am kinda sorta a planner and *may* have already filled those out
  https://t.toysrus.com/skava/static/product.html?type=TRU_product_us&url=/product/index.jsp?productId=2634606&domain=http://www.toysrus.com&productId=2634606
  
  I also do a calendar for each kid, and the type has varied each time. This is the one I got for her, and it is ADORABLE on the inside. https://t.toysrus.com/skava/static/product.html?type=TRU_product_us&url=/product/index.jsp?productId=13368332&cp=&frmSearch=true&frmSearch=true&parentPage=search&domain=http://www.toysrus.com&productId=13368332&cp=&frmSearch=true&frmSearch=true&parentPage=search

  I picked up this one at Hallmark. It stay it's for boys, but the inside pages are totally gender neutral. https://shop.hallmark.com/baby/baby-gifts/little-miracle-baby-boy-memory-book-1BBA7040.html

  For my first I took month by month pics and journalled a bit each month about her milestones and changes. Then, after her first birthday I made a MyPublisher photo book with the milestones written beside each months pic. Gave a book to each set of grandparents and one for myself-loved it!
