Our first week with baby Charlie flew by!
Everyone says it will go by fast so I want to cherish and remember every moment because I know I'll blink and soon he will bewalking running through the house.

So, I've been using this memory book, Mom's One Line A Day, to record each day's exciting happenings (Charlie slept for 5 hours straight last night, we had our first lunch out as a family, turns out dad is better at changing diapers than mom, etc).
The memory book, which can be purchased here, is unique in that it only has space for you to write a sentence or two down a day (which is perfect for me because a. I don't really like to write and b. it's a manageable amount to record versus writing paragraphs each day).
It is also a five year memory book so that you can look back at one particular date over the course of several years and see how things have changed.
Speaking of Charlie...
This kid sleeps a lot (not complaining) so I was happy to be able to snap a picture with his eyes open!
Oh, and if you're not a mom, but like the idea of the 5 year memory book, they sell this one as well.
A quick thank you to Jenn from Clean & Scentsible for choosing our DIY bookshelves as one of her 11 DIY home projects picks from May's Inspiration Exchange!
Have a great day :)

I have the non mom version but it's basically turned into the mom version because life naturally becomes all about the baby lol
ReplyDeleteThat such great idea. I started memory books with my kids, but always seemed to forget about them or write in them sporadically. Congratulations on the birth of your son.

What a cute idea -- you don't need to spend more than a minute a day doing anything but admiring him! Congrats, what a beauty!
