"Baby Book"
Hey fellow adoptive fams... have you found a good version of a baby book for your adoptive child/children? I've only found one and I wasn't crazy about it. Of course I will scrapbook stuff for our girl, but I have an actual 'baby book' where I recorded stuff for each of my boys and was wondering about getting one for her. Ideas? Suggestions?

This isn't the exact book I got when we were matched with Dumpling #1, but it is very similar. It's geared toward adoption and can be used for older children. I never actually filled ours out. http://www.amazon.com/My-Family-Journey-Adoptive-Families/dp/0811857379/ref=pd_sim_misc_3
I am not really a scrapbooker or life book kind of gal. I do have his story written down, posts from our trip. For Dumpling #2 and Dumpling #3, I used Babyjellybeans websites and you can get a DVD of your website when you are finished. Ours were free because we kept our websites for one year. I used Babyjellybeans because blogger is blocked in China and I wanted people to be able to follow us.
Hope you find something you like!

The one I got a few months back...I love love love it. It's not super babyish either, just creative and lots of room to journal how your family came to be. Room for pics, special dates, etc. very very cute!
don't have advice for you on this one--i am sooo lame. i am just planning on using "the blog" for the highlights...
