BABY KEEP SAKE BOXES...

WHAT DID YOU PUT IN YOUR???

I have all the albums with the baby first hair, hospital bracelets and tags but i thought it would be neat to collect other keep sakes....so 4 years later! lol i bought 2 blue baby keep sake boxes and have a few things to put in them but feel like im missing something??

* I have both boys first dummies
* both boys suits they came home from hospital in
* both boys first pair of socks

.....um yeah thats about it so far...

ANY IDEAS????

TIA

emma will know, i think she needs a room for all of mayas stuff!!!

i have the usual stuff..haven't really sorted the album yet..but the other thing i have done is taken a picture of him with everyone who is important in our family and put them on a board for him..when we take the board down i will put all the pics in his special box too:)other than that mine the usual, (ohh haven't done hair yet though:) ) tags form hospital, scan pics, card etc..

Tristen has the pregnancy tests, scan pics, preg belly pics, hospital bracelets, baby shower cards, my epi dural thingy, his belly button clip, his newspaper birth announcement, my pregnancy book and his first easter egg he did (its plastic so will keep LOL) im also going to put aside their cot duvet sets and their first outfit for their own children. Will also put his first pair of shoes in.

Tristen also got a time capsule done for him at his baby shower which has in it all stuff from last year ie a newspaper, magazine, blues boxers, year of the pig stamps etc thats for his 21st...

We've got all of the above plus things like fathers/mothers days cards, letters from Grandparents etc, postcards from family and birthday invitations.

My brother has just been to the USA so I MADE him send a postcard. It's a Mickey Mouse one and is written to Cooper in "kid language" so cute!

Ummm, where to start? My girls have a 60l container each...

I have the pregnancy tests, all their ultrasound pics (there were a lot with the gremlins!), their cord clips, hospital tags, the cards off their hospital cots, the newspaper from the day they were born, clippings of their birth notices, all of the cards they were given at birth and for subsequent birthdays/christenings etc., the first outfit they ever wore, the outfit they wore home from the hospital, booties my great aunty knitted, their first shoes, first toothbrushes, the candle off their first birthday cake...

And for Maya I also have special pieces of artwork from daycare/preschool, her daycare and preschool graduation certificates, a clipping from her first haircut (gremlins don't have enough hair yet lol!)...

Yep, I am a bit of a sentimental fool!

I printed off the Ohbaby messages we received for birthdays and birth days.

I haven't kept any outfits but I do have the baby shower cards, cards from when Jack was born, birth notice from the paper, copy of the Herald from the day he was born.

I have just done the girls ones a few weeks ago - got relatively big pretty boxes from the Warehouse. We hav ea brown one and a blue one covered in lovely fabric with butterflies on it.

I bought 2 baby blue keep sake boxes (yup thats what it says on them! lol) and they have a neat little space at the front to put their names but my printer has retired! so il have to print some off somewhere. They are a bit on the small side though but luckily the boys have humango baby books! lol

Wow! what neat ideas! so so far from all you replies i am now adding some of Bays art work and certificates and the mothers day cards he has made me and his tickets dubs from shows etc, and iv got the cards that Bailey and Kellz made for me and Astin when he was born to go in Astins...Im a bit bummed that i didnt think to save his first bday candle and his toothbrush! i remembered his dummy! ....
