Making Memories

First Year Baby Album

Aside from cleaning the house and doing my daily chores, I have started to find myself with less energy and mobility. Blame it on being pregnant or by caring a baby in the left horn of my uterus I honestly view this new-found laziness as a positive. In the last couple of weeks I have not only planned out a nineteen page scrapbook album for Nicholas and all his first year moments, but I have also completed stage one of the overall book. I'm kind of a nerd in that I typically plan before I do, but I find that I work best this way.

For the scrapbook itself, I divided the book into four stages...

Stage 1 of 4 - Design and Create the Page Layouts

Stage 2 of 4 - Design and Create the Front and Back Cover of the Album

Stage 3 of 4 - Add Decorative Accessories

Stage 4 of 4 - Add Pictures

While this project will be "in-progress" for some time, it has honestly been a fun and exciting way for Alex and I to think about all the wonderful memories that are to come.
