Keepsakes?

[twinkle84]

Hey, was just wondering what you ladies have in your babies keepsake boxes (if u have one) don't want to forget anything! Aiden has a record book, first nappy, first dummy, first thing he ever wore, his coming home outfit, first booties, hospital tag and I also keep a little diary of his firsts and my feelings! Have I missed anything and what else can I look forward to saving? I'm very sentimental haha xx

 

[Esoames]

I have all the cards we got along with her first babygro and hat. I've included the notebook that showed how often she fed too. I'm filling in her books too as and when I remember x

I've not done anything like this! Wish I had. Gutted. What a lovely thing to do.

 

[Elfs Mummy]

I've kept a detailed diary of her first two weeks then kept up with her firsts and anything special we did on certain days how much she weighed etc. I have her cards and balloons, her mask from when she was jaundiced and going under the lights, her first babygrow and will have her first vest in it soon as shes just grown out of it. Oh and a first size nappy im also when i get pictures printed going to put in her first photo and her first cuddle with Mummy picture

 

[Lacey's Mummy]

I've got his first sleepsuit, his belly button cord thingy (cleaned) his cards, scan pics... I can't think of anything else ATM.
I still do lacey's even though she's nearly 5. She's got all of the above plus, a photo of her 1st day at school , 1st time in the newspaper, 1st mummy/daddy's day card!!

Just thought will put his gave toy and his cuddle teddy along with first teddy! Bloody he'll I'm going to need a massive box!!! Gemma it's never too late to start! X

Ow also thought about putting hand and footprints in, well just footprints for now, getting decent hand ones is proving impossible ATM x

So far I've kept Joes coming home outfit, first nappy, welcome cards, hospital ID bracelets, belly button clamp and first nail clippings (sounds minging but I had to ). I've even kept my blue pregnancy bag (but that's more for me though xxx.​

Also for Christmas I got OH a mug made with Cahals hand and footprints on it. It says 'Merry Christmas 2010 Daddy, lots of love from Cahal xxx' on it too.
