Baby Books
Has anyone ever made a baby book?
My sister just called and said the one item she'd wanted to splurge on was the baby book and she can't find a single one she likes in Manhattan. So, being a graphic designer, I smacked her upside the head and informed her I would be delighted to make one for her. This way it can really be personalized to their family (she's from the U.S. and her husband is Colombian).
I'm also considering doing a nice illustrated version on cool paper instead of doing the graphic design version.
So, since I don't have one to look at at the moment, what kinds of pages are most important to parents to have in a baby book?
(I do intend to go out to Barnes & Noble this week and do some research ... just thought I'd start here.)

Years ago I had a bookmark for a DIY babybook, but I'm not finding it. Seems like it was Precious Moments. Maybe the about links will give you some ideas.

You know I just bought a baby book for a baby shower yesterday but sadly I never opened it lol It was on the list so I bought it. They have some at target. The one I ended up buying they wanted was a pooh one.

I love the idea of an illustrated one on cool paper. If its for your niece or nephew that makes it even cooler. That way it could be more of a scrap book style that could expand with the little spudlet.
