While this isn't my first Alphabitty Moments book, it IS the first time I've used my "little things" concept for a baby book. I am so pleased with how cohesive it is and that I was able to get almost 300 photographs in an 80 page book. It was very important to me that I stayed true to the theme of Alphabitty Moments but at the same time cover as much of Elsa's first year as I could.
One way I incorporated extra photographs & text in was to add a summary of her first year near the beginning of the book.
A rainbow theme runs through the entire book as a nod to the theme for her 1st birthday party (which is also her golden birthday).
Do you make a baby book for your children? The traditional handwritten ones or do you do a digital version? I'd love to hear from you! I have (mostly empty) traditional baby books for my older two children. Sigh.... If only I'd thought of Alphabitty Moments years ago! It is so easy to have a list on your refrigerator of every letter in the alphabet so when a 'moment' comes to mind you can make a note of it then be sure to snap a photograph before the moment is gone.
Don't let milestones overshadow the fleeting moments that make up childhood,
for it's the ordinary moments of every day life
that define childhood & become our most treasured memories.

You have amazing talent. I love it! Did you create it with some other program then upload to blurb?
ReplyDeleteThis is the best book I've ever seen. I absolutely love it! Almost makes me want to have a baby!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful Carrie. I just love all the pictures and how you presented them.
Great job! She is so going to love this book when she's older.
I have somewhat empty baby books. I have a lot of photos and might just have to make up something like this. Much more interesting!
