Memory Boxes.


Is anyone making a memory box or book of babies birth day.

I am planning on buying a newspaper from the day she is born, the Number 1 CD of that week and a few other bits and bobs aswell as putting her going home outfit and any other hospital things in there aswell. Along with some photos of the day probably

I just love the idea that she will be able to look back on things when she is older and see what was actually going on the day she was born.

Actually I was thinking about buying one! And then I wanna buy "first curl" and "first loose tooth" to put in there. Pretty much anything from the day hes born to his first birthday.

I bought this one http://www.uncommongoods.com/product...birth-year-box and I plan on putting her hospital I.D bracelet, scan pics, an invite from the baby shower and her birth announcement along with some other stuff.

i always wonder what was happening in the news on the day i was born, and what was popular at the time so would be nice to be able to keep it, although a CD probably wont be able to be used in 15 or so years haha

That sounds like a lovely idea, Charlotte. Might just have to steal it
I'll probably stick a More magazine in there, as its my favourite and i'd probably have bought it anyway

My mum and dad did something similar like this except we had a book until our first birthday and also a coin set for the year of our birth as well as first curl, tooth, word etc but aswell as that mum and dad got all their pictures/memories/letters out and we all sat and did our own boxes complete with baby blankets, first teddy, first clothes, letters we had wrote, pictures we drew, stories that happened, anything that had any significance and it's all now in my box and I hope to show my baby it when he/she is old enough and get them too do their own :-)
