I have two more board books to make like this -

Only one says "AEROSMITH" and the other one says "REMINGTON".

Remington is a very close friend of mine's new grandson - he's 6 months old - and I want to do a baby's 1st Christmas album for him - I have tons of fancy little stickers for baby's Christmas -but I need help with coming up with pages. Like one can be "Photo with Santa". Then "Wrapping paper from first Christmas gifts". A list of who was there, to celebrate with Remi, and gifts he received. I'll have "Dee" (my friend) add the stuff after the holidays. WHAT ELSE? Please help me - my mind is mush right now. LOL

Aerosmith will be done the same way - photos, ticket stubs, etc. It's for my SIL - who rarely misses one of their concerts no matter which coast they are playing. Any ideas for individual pages for that? Thanks!!!!

How about:


Looking at the tree light



Playing in the tree/or out of the tree



Playing with the Siamese while playing with the tree ornaments



Wrapping gifts (himself)



Making cookies



Eating cookies/turkey or whatever



Christmas outfit



Opening gifts



Celebrating with family



Baby's first ornament



Christmas activities

Christmas outfit



Opening gifts (Maybe with a bow on his head - or playing with his new stuff?)

I noted things above - but the hardest part is that he's so young. But he's a cutie!!

Sinced he is so young, maybe you could do it from his point of view. Like, I am watching the cat play with the tree ornaments and I think....

OK. I'm not listening to Bibi anymore. She seems to think I've more talent than I do. LOL I'm only going to slap some paper and stickers on this - a few titles - and then give it to her to fill in. Not making a production out of this - not that I could do that if I wanted to!!!

PS: The mother of this baby is a jerk. If my friend gives it to her instead of keeping it for herself - I'm choking her. lol BTW, I gave the little boy that John Deere tractor I made.
