  • Hi,
    I have a box which had gifts from a Mum from school gave Alfie. I've put all his welcome to the world type cards, the babygrow he was born in (that doesn't sound right but you know what I mean!), all his tags from hospital, newspaper from the day he arrived, first Christmas cards and tags from gifts, little balloon that someone bought us for coming home. I will have to get another one I think as it's getting really full!
    Also started a photo album step Mum gave us which I love adding to! Like the first dummy idea! x
  • oh you would not believe the hair on her! people are amazed, that pic does not do it justice!!!
    we took her for a haircut at 6 monhs.

    oh my box has scan pics and tags too.
