When I was pregnant for Landry, I had big plans to scrapbook her entire life. I even pre-made some of the pages so I could just insert pictures once she arrived. Well, those pages are still sitting "pictureless" in the closet, and do you think I've had time to make anymore? I don't think so. So I thought I'd make photo books instead. I could make one for each year of my kids' lives. But when I attempted to make my first one, uploading and sorting through literally thousands of pictures became incredibly overwhelming. Not to mention choosing backgrounds and layouts. I threw in the towel! Well, one day I was reading a friend of a friend's blog, and she mentioned ordering a blog book. This sparked my interest, because my blog is the one place where I've already uploaded and sorted through pictures, and there are even stories to go with them. So I checked out the website, blog2print, and I am so glad I did! I chose the dates of the posts I wanted in my book (all of 2009), and it took around five minutes for the site to grab the posts from my blog and lay them out in a complete, 100-page, book. It cost me about $50 to make the book and have it shipped. It is well worth it, in my opinion. All of our favorite pictures and stories for the year are in one location, and we plan on having one made each year. It's a family year book of sorts.
Landry LOVED browsing through the book. She looked at it over and over again. I finally had to hide it so it wouldn't get messed up. I know she will really enjoy reading all the stories when she gets older. :)
So I highly recommend ordering a book from blog2print. It's simple, but priceless! (No they are not paying me to advertise.)
