Memories! Pressed Between the Pages of My Mind...and This Blog

A few months ago I was showing one of my blog posts to one of my friends at church.

This friend is a little crazy...fanatic...nuts, to say the least.

She read my post and then piped up with something along the lines of "WhatInTheWorldWillYouDoIfTheInternetCrashes?"

TT, if the Internet crashes, we have a whole lot more problems than my tiny little blog.

However, she had a point. I needed to get this printed somehow.

If for nothing else then for the years down the road when my Baby Girl and Baby Boy have flown the nest and I'm, you know, dead.

They might want to know the craziness that is their Mother.

Maybe.

Not sure anyone is brave enough for that.

So, I spent some time, and by that I mean an obscene amount of time, formatting and adding and moving photos in the software from blurb.com

A few clicks and a credit card later and this came in the mail.





I only did 2007 first which was my smallest blogging year, which meant the booklet was small (only 52 pages). But I was so excited!

I have 2, one for Baby Boy and one for Baby Girl.

I'm working on 2008 now (which has 140 posts).

Looks like my longwindedness began the year my son's vocabulary kicked in.

I have no idea where he gets it.

I've been working on this for us too! I just started thinking that I will NEVER catch up on scrapbooking so I may as well have someone do it for me! ;) Yours looks great!

What a great idea! And a wonderful way to preserve your thoughts and memeories for your children! I am so glad you have done this. I want Andrea to do this with her blog for Camryn.
