PLUG!

The first year of a baby's life is so full of, well, "firsts", including our first family Christmas card! I've spent a few hours sitting at the computer, picking the perfect card and the perfect family photo to go with it. Shutterfly has so many holiday card styles and it was difficult to choose. I created four different projects before I settled on the perfect one.

Shutterfly is so versatile, I can create more than just Christmas cards. I cannot wait to take all of the pictures from Waverly's first year and create a photo book of memories. I enjoy looking at family photos from when I was a baby; however, those photos are starting to fade and the albums are getting worn.  By using Shutterfly to make custom photo books, I can choose the photos, page layout, font, and captions; not to mention, the photos are part of the pages and are printed at a very high quality, helping me avoid the photo fade.

Not only do I enjoy taking photos of Waverly every step of the way, I write everything down from the first night she slept all the way through to her first tooth and the first time she laughed.  Following her first birthday in March, I will make a photo calendar in which to record all of these memories as a keepsake.

In the past, I've mainly used Shutterfly to order prints because they always have such GREAT deals, but now I'm excited to turn all of the photos into keepsakes and memories.
