I had to laugh at the "i bet no one is interested in this but us", especially since my 3 year old daughter was ignoring The Incredibles so that she could watch Kendall's tummy time.

You can't slap that in a stupid book! Please, don't feel bad. All I have is a calendar on my baby's dresser that I randomly jot things in. Her baby book has three completed lines in it... maybe. Who invented these damn books? What could be a worse idea for a new mom than the pressure of writing a novel on the toughest/most awesome experience of her life while she is experiencing it all? IDIOTS, I tell you! I would have to say, the video feature would be the best. You can’t slap that in a stupid book!

I have a 2 1/2 yr old and a 1 1/2 yr old and am kicking myself weekly about not getting their baby books completed - but really? - when do I EVER have time to??? Thanks for the chance to win this product - it looks great! Yes, I will tweet as well! You are not alone!

I did the same thing with my first baby. It was so hard to remember to write down all that stuff. We just had our second and I'm betting I won't be any better. I really like the Letters for the Future feature. Such a neat thing to do. You aren’t a slacker at all! I did the same thing with my first baby.

I love that it comes in different styles. I think the bear is my fav. This would be so much easier and would last a lot longer than a traditional baby book!

I am just now getting back into the swing of posting, mostly for the sake of remembering things. Oh, us slackers. I love this little USB though! I have a baby book I got for Christmas from my best friend, and while I look forward to filling it out, I am pretty sure it will end up as my mouse pad or something. I still want the USB, though, hah. I am even worse – I started a baby blog when I first got my BFP and then forgot about it for months.

I was JUST sitting her yesterday, looking across the room at Jonas's baby book that never got (even remotely) finished, thinking about how sad I was that I slacked off in that department. And it's even worse with #2. He doesn't even have a damn scrap book! At least Jonas has a scrap book from his first year. Jules has jack shit in that department. Hardly a printed photo! It's not on purpose. I'm just too busy, man. I don't know what your solution is? Even with digital, it's a LOT of work. If you figure it out, let me know. I'll try to work it into the hundred thousand other things I have to do. ;) OMG, that is so crazy!

I have on my to do list every week to add something to my little girl's baby book and I never priortize it. And now it's been so long that it's adding several somethings, which just piles on the guilt and strains my already seive-like memory these days. My daughter just turned one last week and I can't believe how much I feel like I've forgotten already. I hope the therapy bills aren't too extensive! I'm much more electronic, just like you. But I'm not even good enough to blog about it. I love the idea of the family tree in pictures. I hear about distant relatives all the time but would love to have my mom's favorite pictures of those people to tie into the stories she tells me. I could have written this post.
