Ryleigh's First 5 Months Baby Book

I've just finish your baby book from my pregnancy through your first 5 months. 

Here's the thing. this book is not your first baby book. I started your baby book just a few months after you were born. It was so fun but I really didn't know that much about scrap-booking, I looking back I made one very big mistake... I didn't document big mile stones in your life or add your age.  

Something else happened that led me to redo your baby book 15 years later... we lost most of your baby pictures. So, if a fire happened I would never be able to recover these photos. I knew I would have to scan all my scrapbook pages to protect our memories. So, it begins. And want should have become a day project lasted 5 months and a complete rewire on my scrap-booking brain. 

I scan every page, took the pages a part and scan each photo, uploaded to the photos to the cloud, Printed new photos, scrap-booked new pages, blogged each event. It was a massive under taking but it is worth every minute. And I learning so much about this fun hobby I love so much. Plus I'm reliving all these wonderful memories. 

I never had a first page, never really thought about an opening page. But this is what I came up with... Highlights on the book. 

It's a big book and over time I just took more and more pictures.

I love to draw. Bambi was your nursery room decor. I thought it would be fun to add a drawing to each one of my books, and add lyrics to a song we loved.

Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are,

Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.

Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are,

You’ll be sparkling through the night, I’ll be snuggled up so tight.

While you’re smiling at moonbeams, I will see you in my dreams.

Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are,

Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.

When the light of day is near, you just seem to disappear.

Why do you hide and where do you go? There’s so much that I don’t know.

Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are,

Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.

This Dreamscapes Soother from Leap Frog was connected to your crap and played every time your were in it. We loved it. 

This is your 1st baby album. It was 8 x 10.
