In case you’re in need of some really great journals, I’d like to recommend a few here. I love to keep a pregnancy journal, and of course after that I like to keep a baby book. After the baby book? Well, I just found a really cool journal for after your done with the baby book! Or, if you just want a blank journal, I can tell you where to find a really cool one.
OK, this is my absolute fave for a pregnancy journal.
I’ve had this particular journal with each of my pregnancies and I really love it! It tells you how your little baby is growing each and every day, starting from conception!! It is just so amazing to see how at only a few days old so much is already going on! It truly is a little baby in there, no matter what they call it! Now, there isn’t a lot of room to write, so if you’re really wordy, I’m not sure what to do. But you don’t need to miss out on this super journal if your pregnant!
Now my favorite baby book is the Humble Bumbles’ Baby Journal. I have this journal for each of my two kids right now. It is very colorful with all the pages I can think of that are important, like family tree, parents, extended family, bringing you home, and it lasts until age three. The only thing I wish it had that it doesn’t is a sibling page, but I just changed one of the pages and made it into a sibling page the last time. It also comes with a growth chart in the front and some cute little paper frames to go around your pictures. There’s also an envelope for keepsakes and a small one for hospital bracelets and for the first hair cut.
Gabriel will be three in October, so I’m almost done with his baby journal. So I just saw this journal at Mom4Life and had to try it out! It is SO cool! I don’t think he’s quite ready for doing the drawing in it yet, but I’m sure he will be before I know it. It’s got favorite things, places for them to draw themselves, friends, family, pets, birthday, holidays, and a place for thought and drawings in the back. I think it will be great when he’s ready for it.
If you’re just looking for a blank journal, then I highly recommend these. They are beautiful and very high quality. The paper is acid-free, from a fully sustainable source, and archival quality. There’s a ribbon style bookmark and a memento pouch in the back. The journals also have closures to keep everything securely inside. My journal is from the French Collection and the Fanfare line. It has a fanfare style binding, which it describes in the back.
Any of these journals would make a great gift for others or yourself!
