Wonderfully Sweet

This is a lovely book for keepsakes and baby memories. It starts out before baby is born, takes you through the birth and first few days and into baby's milestones and first haircut etc.It has pockets for memorabilia and places for photos and lots of empty pages to write your thoughts and feelings. It even gives special places for dad to share!Plus the book itself is adorable with colorful pages and an overall adorable look to it. What fun!

Sweet, fun, and open-ended

Definitely the nicest choice I've seen! This book has a clean, simple, fun design that basically stays out of the way and lets your baby take center stage. Too many baby books are fussy affairs that impose their own restrictions on you. Another plus, for non-Christian parents: no pre-printed sections for baptism, "baby's first Christmas," etc. Most supposedly secular baby books assume the family is Christian...a baby book with a lot of blank pages about Christian celebrations can make a child feel like an outsider.

The perfect baby shower gift!

I purchased Oh Baby!: A Journal as a shower gift and what a success! All the moms loved it and wanted to know where they could find it. We all loved the illustrations and look and feel of the book. The headings for the sections were perfect and there is just enough space for everything but not too much so the task of filling it in isn't too daunting. Especially unique are the envelopes and folders to hold things; my favorite is the catch-all one at the end called "stuff". I agree with one of the other reviewers - fun and hip!

Beautiful, artistic & high quality

The "Oh Baby" book is absolutely beautiful and stands out from the rest of the baby books/journals in terms of its quality and uniqueness -- in fact it's so nice that I'm also giving it as a baby gift to friends. It is extremely attractive and sophisticated looking. It has almost a handmade/artsy look to it, complete with high quality, thick pages, colorful illustrations and fun wording, plus interesting pockets for keepsakes such as baby hair, photos, etc. I just wish that "Oh Baby" had matching photo albums!
