Ok ladies so I need some help, but it isn't the kind of help you guys are used to being asked about. I am making a blank scrapbook for my cousin who is pregnant. Blank meaning all the cutsie stuff done...she adds her own pictures. I am trying to compile a list of pages to create for this Saturday. I am going to a 12 hour scrapbooking party. My main theme is to take her all the way from her pregnancy - his first birthday. I'm doing this for many reasons. 1 she had a miscarriage about a year ago and up until recently she was nervous about another one (everything is fine now and she is good to go) and 2, I will duplicate a lot of the more gender generic pages and use them in my own scrapbook when I get pregnant. So anywhoo....I need your help to come up with a list of all the different "subjects" I should cover in the book. Some of the ones I have so far are: first tooth, crawling, walking, smile...stuff like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

" ultrasound pictures, mommy's growing tummy, family tree, baby shower, birth announcement, hospital pictures, nursery pictures, first day home from the hospital, meeting the family pet, baptism (if you do that), first outing (like to the park or something), first vacation trip...

those were the first ones in my head... i'll keep thinking if you need more. but those are some pages i think i'd want. "

" That is an incredibly cute idea. You could have Mommy's Boy, or Daddy and Me pages, or with grandparents. You could do something with a sleeping "Nap Time" or "little angel".

Is there anything they like to do, like to to the park, zoo etc? You could set a page up for that type of thing. Oh, don't forget the holidays! Baby's first ____ (Christmas, Easter, Independence Day, Halloween, or whatever holidays they celebrate) You could also have "summer fun" and "first snow/winter" seasonal pages.

OK I am a little envious. I want to make one now! Good luck. I am sure it will turn out beautifully. "

" How about baby's first haircut, favorite toys, bath time...
What a great idea! I love scrapbooking, and every time I see cute baby-related pages/stickers/etc., it takes all the strength I have not to buy the stuff, for fear of jinxing myself!
Have fun - and if I think of any other topics, I'll message you! "
