Do you have a baby book from when you were a baby? Did your mom make one for you? I am the youngest of 3 and my mom only made one for my sister, whose the oldest. I miss not having that part of my life documented. Does anybody else not have a baby book? Do you miss it? If you do have one, do you enjoy looking at it?

My mom never made a baby book for me or my brother. She has pictures of lots of stuff but didn't put anything together for baby books. I don't know why she didn't make us any. She's not the most nurtuirng person in the whole world. Especially when we were growing up. In all honesty, now that I think about it I hardly ever see pictures of us when we were kids. It doesn't really bother me but now I wonder what she did with all of the pictures.

I dont have one and it doesnt even bother me. I didnt really do one for my daughter either. I have some memorabilia for her though. I have her outfit and blanket she came home in. I also have her first halloween costume, christmas stocking and a few random things. Some of the stuff in a baby book is so tedious.

Yes. I have three brothers and a sister and all of us has a baby book book. My father is a photographer and he loves pictures. He patiently documented our lives through photos from the time we were babies until elementary school days. After that, we continued the albums ourselves. It's nice to see our many "firsts" in the album like our first bath, first toys, first crawl, first walk, first dress, first toothbrushing, first day in school...and the many other first. We always have fun looking at it especially when we have family reunions and everybody is around. We always have a good time laughing and teasing each other on how we look when we were young and how funny our faces and clothes look like.

My mom also only made one for my oldest sister. I have 4 siblings in all.I also miss not what went on in that part of my life, because no one is capable of remembering that far back. I now have 2 children and I have made sure to keep a book for both of them. I have also started a family book. One of the fun things I keep in it is all of the ticket stubs from movies, sporting events and other events that we attend as a family.
