If you have access to the issue that I'm talking about give it to someone who is going to have a baby. I really did make this entire album before Cole was born and it really was the best thing I have ever done! I started with the month he was born and printed a blank calendar page. Opposite that is a spot for 4 (4x4) pictures. The next layout is an area for notes from the month and then 4 more pictures. It goes all the way through his first year and the back page is for his 1st birthday. I used a 9x9 album so that I could just cut 4x6 pictures down to 4x4 easily. I fill in the calendar with whatever random things happened that day or that week and at the end of the month I fill in the notes. If I never do another album for as long as I live I will ALWAYS be grateful that I have this. Here are some pictures...

That is such a great idea! To bad for me it's 2 years to late. You did great work and have a wonderful album to show for it.
What size scrapbook paper did you use? I have never found 9 x9 paper.
