Here I am finally getting around to blog about Brylee's 1 year book. Someone suggested months back that I do this. So here I am! I really wish that they would have had this type stuff when I was growing up. This will be so special to Brylee (and Lord willin' our other kiddos!). This is something I plan to do each year. I got the idea from my sister-in-law who makes one for each of her girls, though she gives their book to them for Christmas. I love the idea of having all the pictures in this one little book. I started working on this a couple months before her birthday. I told myself I would never do that again. I would add and work each month because it is quite time consuming. Do you think I've actually done that? NO! Though I'm only 2 month behind now. I can catch up! Here is the front:

I added pages introducing Mommy and Daddy, grandparents, cousins, aunt and uncles, great grandparents, and other special people in her life:

I added the different ultrasound pics:

Lots of hospital pictures:

Welcome Brylee Shower!

Holiday pages:

Monthly pictures:

Lots of "first" pages:


Like and Dislikes pages:


Special moments page:

Message from Mommy and Daddy page:

I made a blank page for everyone to sign at her birthday party:

And here is the back of the book:

There were so many other random things put in there but that's the "jist" of it. Couldn't add all 80+ pages!
I love it! My sister made Drew's first year on my blog into a book and I LOVE it. I simply have too much to say to put it all in one photo book! I just wanted to pass this deal along to you if you wanted it as a Christmas gift. It may not be good longer than today, but I thought you might have a grandmother or greatgrandmother who might want a copy of your book...and here's a discount!
