About this title

Synopsis

For a parent, a baby book is near the top of the list of "must haves" for a new baby. It is one of those essential items packed for the trip to the hospital weeks before the baby arrives. All the special moments-the first smiles, the first words, the first steps-are lovingly recorded in its pages for posterity. In My First Five Years-Nursery Room Edition, those pages feature heartwarming photos of babies from Anne Geddes's new Nursery Room Collection of baby clothes. Adorable tots, decked out in pink, yellow, blue or white soft cotton, smile winningly, sleep soundly, and convey a love of children on every page.My First Five Years includes special details, like a tiny envelope to keep a lock of hair, height and weight charts to track growth through the years, and plenty of room to add your child's own photos and mementos. Completing a baby book is one of the great privileges of parenthood. A pleasure to look at even before it is filled, My First Five Years-Nursery Room Edition will become a treasured keepsake of a time that passes all too quickly.

Review

The children's photographer, Anne Geddes, may be best known as "the one who does those cute pictures of the babies in the flowers." This build-your-own scrapbook features flower pictures, babies dressed as bumble bees, babies on pumpkins, babies, babies, and more babies. Geddes's babies are adorable without being too "cute" and the scrapbook itself is great fun to look at, whether or not you manage to get the photos pasted in, the locks of hair snipped, and the details (weight at six months, first tooth lost) entered.
