What should I put in a scrapbook I made for my friend’s baby?
My friend is due at any time really, early this June. I bought a cute pink gingham scrapbook that I put her baby’s initials on. I already have pages in it like first steps, etc.
What kind of personal touches can I put in it so that it’s not your general everyday baby scrapbook?
Please, Thankyou and Godbless you for any help

when my sisterwas born someone gave her a cute little bonnet for her to wear- there was an explanation about how a couple of stitches could be undone to turn it into a hankerchief to be saved for her “something old” for her wedding day.
It could then be turned back into a bonnet for her first baby.
Here is a site that offers poems and a better explanation of the idea- you could put a hankercheif with her initials embroidered on it or make the bonnet:

A pull out Height chart… really cute and better than doing on the door of their home ;))))))))))
In my daughter’s scrapbook I have a page that is all about the day she was born. What movies were popular, what songs were popular, who was the president, how much gasoline costed, and other important things like that. I also have a calendar that has each month for one year and says height and weight. Each month I take her measurements and record them on the calendar.
I just did a baby scrapbook for a friend who is due later in the summer.
I did one that she can fill up with pictures with in the first few months. It is going to be quite some time before the baby walks.
Some of my layouts where
First photo
first pix with Mommy
first pix with Daddy
I’m going home
first car ride
First bath.
Pix with Grandpa/ma-both sets-so that was 4 pages
Nap time
My nursery
The front page was for the birth announcement
The back page was for them to write how baby got their name
I had room on some of the pages for her to journal.
