Build A Baby Book

- Which baby keepsake book would you recommend?
I'm looking for a book to record my baby's firsts, information about the birth, footprints & such. Does anyone have any recommendations for such books? Any ones that you've really liked, or really disliked, and why? Thanks!

A The perfect baby keepsake book will depend on the sort of topics you would like to see in your book. Here are are some topics/questions to help you decide what you'd like to see in a baby book. http://www.ideas-for-baby-photos.com/make-your-own-baby-book.html If you can't find a memory book that suits your family perfectly, consider getting a loose-leaf baby memory book. You will be able to remove pages that don't suit your family or add pages. Check out the Aimee J memory book - it is in the loose-leaf style and 12x12 scrapbook size. You can also include photos sleeves in the baby book so it can be like a photo album too. Some baby memory books come with matching keepsake boxes, a baby first year calendar with stickers and a photo album which is a nice idea. You might also like the idea of personalizing your baby's keepsake memory book with your baby's name embroidered on the cover. Another option is making your own baby book such as baby book scrapbook or photobook. You could also consider starting a blog and collating your blog into a baby photobook using Blurb.com at the end of your baby's first year. Hope this helps!

- Where can I buy a baby keepsake book (online/in store) for writing down memories and other things?
I'm looking to purchase a "keepsake" book for someone who is pregnant. Where can I buy something like this (either online or in a store)? I would like pages that ask you to fill in information as well as storage areas for things like cards, locks of hair, etc.

A Walmart carries a pink one, a blue one & a neutral yellow one from Child o'Mine, a subdivision of Carter's. It has all the obvious thing like baby's weight, etc... but it also has folder-like slots on the inside covers & a few slits inside for hair, umbilical cord & stuff like that, as well as tons of picture areas. But what I really like about them is that they ask other questions like where did mom & dad meet? Where was their 1st date? As well as all about the parents' childhoods. I thought they were the best & they were actually the cheapest. Only $12 or $13. Stay away from the Winnie the Pooh ones, they stink! Hope this helps!
