first page ... done!

I am finally getting to Henry's baby book, procrastinator and fearful-to-start-perfectionist that I am, and today Page One is done and documented. Phew!

I decided to go a different route with his baby book rather than a typical scrapbook, instead using the Sweet Baby Kit of the Month ... everything you need or want to tell the story of your baby's first year. (All of the posts for September 2008 in Becky Higgins blog go into great details ... check it out!)

Now in case you think you should give me kudos for this particular layout ... let me stop you now. The design concept was a complete copy from a page I really admired on another scrapbooker's blog and so you can compare them here. Still, it was fun to put together and I really like how it looks. (You can click on the photo to enlarge it for all the details.)

And you can't go wrong when it's your own beautiful baby you're showcasing, right?!

Great Job Cass! As always -you've inspired me to get going again!

By the way -you asked about Caleb's duds...alot of stuff belongs to my sister. She has been great lending me her boy's clothes. Our other favorite brands are Carter's and the grandparents love the Gap and Children's Place -he's a stylin little man! :0)

Your layout is priceless! I am still deciding if I "need" Becky's baby kit. It is such a cute kit, but I have so much stuff already... oh decisions! Please share more layouts when you get them done!
