meaning of the name
proud friends and family
proud daddy(single new daddy)
growth per month
the many firsts( food, roll over, steps, word, tooth, sleep through the night, haircu, pet)
shower gifts
hand and foot prints
monthly photos
daddies thoughts and emotions on day of arrival
ending with the first birthday
does any one know of any other pages?
christmas is my fav time of year:D:D
grama is getting married too in sept so that should have a page
I think that pretty much covers it. I took ended up taking a picture of a positive pregnancy test! lol I know it sounds stupid. Hubby and I have been TTC for almost 4 yrs! I also had a posted note I wrote the time and date on it when I called to get the blood test result, what the level of hormone I had and the reference # lol (That was before the HPT). Good l
I have been invited to a baby shower. With the invitation, they gave me a blank scrapbook page to decorate. They gave page ideas such as: recipes, advice on being a new parent, scripture verses, helpful hints, ect.
The mother and people attending are very religous, and I don't want to offend them in whatever I put on this page. I thought a poem about a baby would be nice, but probably wouldn't take up much room. I have the front and back of the page to decorate.
Anyone have any ideas?
A poem is a great idea - you could also cut out pictures of babies and moms, share a story or two about good advice your parents gave you (if you can), song lyrics, whatever you think would be fun for her
Is there a good website? I am looking for ideas for a baby and for a kids baseball scrapbook.
hi! Scrapbook.com is one of my favorites. They have a huge forum and you will find great inspiration and a lot of people willing to help you there…if you make it over there..look me up at my place, i’m kristi’s kids :o)
I need to buy a scrapbook for my baby brother, he's going to be 2, but I don't know if this is right for a baby .

or do u know an album like this, with a picture and a name slot?
Yes, it is perfect. Much better than a baby blue one. He'll keep an interest in it for years.

A great complete kit to get any one started with their scrapbooking baby album comes from K & C Company, they come in both boys and girls kits. These kits can also make a lovely baby shower gift when the gender of the baby is known. They really do come with a lot of great supplies to get you up and going and they are very reasonably priced. 

are there any websites that has nice baby backgrounds & borders to print out for my scrapbook pages?
I use a software called Scrapbook Flair to create scrapbook of my daughters.
The software is FREE. It has powerful features, and is very easy and fun to use. Most stuff I usually have to buy, such as scrapbook templates, embellishments and backgrounds, are FREE at Scrapbook Flair.
The software web site is at http://www.scrapbookflair.com. Go to their download center. They also have designer collections. Scrapbook Flair is the most fun scrapbook sharing community site on the Internet in my opinion.
My wedding colors where royal blue and baby blue. I would like to find 12×12 paper that would match my colors I also had a bunch of blue roses. So I need something to match color or have roses on it. I don't mind ordering online. Any ideas where I could find this paper?
Thanks
Even though your colors were the 2 shades of blue, I would recommend adding in the base colors of black and white as well. I've seen some nice stuff for weddings at the dollar tree… look not only in the scrapbooking area, but also by the party stuff, they have a wedding section.
http://www.weddingscrapbookingsupplies.com/ this site has a lot of neat stuff.

We are throwing a baby shower for my sister coming up. One of her friends wants us to all make a scrapbook page for the Mother-to-Be. I think it is a great idea, but I don't know where to start. 1) I am much younger and don't have experience with being a mother 2) I don't know what types of things you put on a scrapbook page for a new Mom.
Any Advice or ideas?
Is there new baby advice that I could give to her? If so, what are some ideas?
I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!!!!
Thanks!!!
There is 20 of us. We each only get one page and we are going to collaborate it together to make one book.
So I have to make one page, but don't know what to put on it. Pictures, mom to be advice, etc.
Hope this makes sense.
How is she delegating what page you are doing?
I would assume you are making the equivalent of a baby book out of scrap booked pages.
For example: Baby's first day home, Baby's first doctor's visit, First tooth, Baby's room, First birthday.
But if that's what you are doing, you should be choosing ahead of time so as to not have multiple pages for one event.
Talk to her and ask her what a good page for you to do would be. I'm sure she would be happy to help.
