Summary: Beautiful Keepsake that will take you through year 5!
Review: I had my first child in October 2001, and bought this book early in the pregnancy. I was initially impressed by its appearance- it uses a lot of vintage child art throughout. But, more importantly, I have found this a easy to use and comprehensive book. It is hard cover and spiral bound, and closes with an elastic loop. This is handy so I can stick in photos, announcements, invitations, etc. without fear of losing them. There are many places in the book to attach photos of the appropriate event or time period. Also, this book is useful for not just the pregnancy memories but becomes a baby book, recording your child's events through age 5. There is a useful pocket in the back. There are checklists, quotes, and calendars galore. I am not a big "journaler"; this book helped by guiding me through my memories. I look back and already have recorded so much, but it doesn't seem like it has taken much time. This was a tremendous purchase for me, and I know my husband, son, and I will love to look back on it.

Summary: Classy and Complete
Review: I recently found out that I am expecting my third, and probably last, child and I decided to find a journal in which to record my pregnancy so that I could really savor and appreciate this special time. This book is more than I expected!! The charming illustrations have a vintage feel that will still look classic when your baby is grown. The book is divided into sections: pregnancy, health and development, first year, second year,etc on up to the fifth year. The book has a chunky feel that makes you want to curl up with it and reminisce. It is a resource for all of the names and phone numbers you'll need to record as a parent but it also guides you into capturing all of those special "firsts" and memories (ie. favorite foods & recipes, favorite songs, quotes from your child's teachers)that you'll enjoy looking back on when your child is grown. I am really looking forward to filling up this book.
