Like bath, tooth, haircut, vacation, holidays, etc. </p> <p>Then, favorites from first year. </p> <p>After that? I slack. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666684 Thu, 29 May 2014 18:57:47 +0000 fancyfunction 1666684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started making a scrapbook when pregnant and it has continued into a baby book. Though she's 17 mo and I'm only up to 8 mo in the book! But I have some bump pics, ultrasound pics, pics from my shower, etc. Then I have different firsts of hers like first bath, sitting up, etc. and all of her monthly pictures. I also have my hospital bracelet, her footprints, newspaper cover from the day she was born, things like that. I need to get back to adding to it though :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666670 Thu, 29 May 2014 18:54:31 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1666670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a baby book that's mostly things to write about and not pictures. I am doing a seperate scrapbook for her pictures in the first year. Some of the things in the baby book are a little envelope for a lock of hair, ultrasound pic, foot and hand print, some stuff about her room like her books, toys, special touches, colors... a place for her favorite songs, bedtime routine... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666653 Thu, 29 May 2014 18:50:57 +0000 chopsuey 1666653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I suck.

Some of you bees have got to have nice baby books! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666296 Thu, 29 May 2014 16:25:53 +0000 hellobeeboston 1666296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>.... A lot of blank spaces?</p> <p>I have been SO bad at filling it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666268 Thu, 29 May 2014 16:16:17 +0000 artsyfartsy 1666268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I separated my pregnancy and first year book but I did bimonthly bump pics and journaled as I went. In his first year book I put a letter to him in the beginning like you and I put my favorite picture of him from each month (1 month, 2 months, etc) up with a journal entry of his milestones, how BFing is going, favorite moments, etc. then for the next 3 or so pages I put all the pictures we've taken of him for that month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666188 Thu, 29 May 2014 15:46:04 +0000 pui 1666188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: It's a baby book, but it's including pregnancy stuff. I don't see the purpose of making a whole book just to document the pregnancy since I don't think I have that much to say about it and I didn't do weekly bump pics or anything. This book is supposed to cover from pregnancy to when LO is one. So the first few pages are about the pregnancy and then the rest will document everything from LO's birth to her first birthday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666066 Thu, 29 May 2014 15:04:37 +0000 Mamaof2 1666066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pregnancy book or baby book? Title says baby but your wording sounds like you mean pregnancy :wink: </p> <p>They were different for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-baby-book#post-1666018 Thu, 29 May 2014 14:52:16 +0000 pui 1666018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm already working on a baby book design for my LO and I wanted to know what the bees put in their baby book! What did you write about? What stats did you include? How did you record milestones? What pictures did you include? Anything you didn't include and wish you had?</p> <p>So far I have a letter written to her at the beginning, a pregnancy timeline, ultrasound pictures and some information about each one and room for a birth story.</p> <p>Any other ideas? </p>
