Personalized Baby Calendar
Tweet ThisNOTE: SPECIAL OFFER FOR MONTH OF APRIL - Printed calendar same price as PDF version - Just $27!
I have two kids. Two boys. I'm hoping when they become men, they aren't going to say, "Mom this is all you wrote in our baby books!"
If they do I will have to say, "look guys, I was overwhelmed, tired, sleep deprived, and surf deprived. I did my best. Just because I didn't completely fill out your baby book, doesn't mean I don't love you both equally."
"If you love us both equally, then why does Vinny's baby book have more in it than mine?" asks Gio.
"I was completely overwhelmed with one child, and, well, two kids just sent me into I'm Completely Unorganized Purgatory Hell," I say. "I'm still trying to get out of that chaotic place, where hours on end are spent searching for things I cannot find."
If only, when my babies were born, there was the magical invention known as the Personalized Baby Calendar. Then, I wouldn't have spent a moment wondering, "where was the last place I put that baby book?"
I'd start searching for the baby book, forget what I was looking for in the first place, never find the baby book, and therefore, never write in the baby book.
Never is a strong word, but at least, the Personalized Baby Calendar would have been hanging in the same location day in, and day out. I probably would have run out of room updating it hourly.
"Vinny just cooed!"
"OMG! Baby drool is so slimy, it's no wonder it causes a rash."
"Breast feeding is hard work and my nipples are sore and not in a good way."
"I have 4 spit ups on my shirt, when will I find the time and energy to change it?"
"He's sleeping, should I do the dishes, take a nap, or take a shower?"
What a treasure that would have been for my children and grandchildren to read out loud in front of the fire.
Even if my own children won't benefit from a Personalized Baby Calendar my grandchildren will. Besides, it will make a great baby gift. Click here to view a complete sample calendar.
I haven't seen a baby calendar that combines horoscope, "on your birthdate", baby milestones and a place for notes the way the Personalized Baby Calendar does.
Actually now that I think about it, it probably isn't too late to order one for each of my kids! They will never know the difference.

Neat! I'm hoping to get to my kids' specially selected baby books when child #2 goes to preschool. It was hard enough getting the books. But I have been keeping a journal for each of them, and gmail accounts for them to read in the future.
Wow! Very cool. You're so creative.

Thank you for the awesome post! I am also working on retroactive calendars with photos without the milestone information.
