UPDATED: I got DH's book! (now with pictures of actual book!)
And I have to say it looks FABULOUS in person-I will have to take pics of it because I need to show off the awesomeness of the cover-I paid a little more for the custom cover-its likea regular laminated book rather than the linen or leather covers and it looks SO SO good.
So pleased! Now i just have to wrap it!
UPDATED: with pics...

Front and back cover:
This is what i mean when I tell brides full spread sheets in this format don't lay perfect flat but you can make it look close to a full spread.

Re: I got DH's book!
Hey Miss Jenn I have a related question for you - thanks to you and your inspiring art ( ) I just introduced a friend of mine to the wonderful world of Picaboo so she could make a book of pictures of her baby. She used to love to scrapbook but since the baby was born she lost patience for all the cutting and sticking. The question is, Picaboo gives a price for 20 pages - is this 20 pages front and back, or 10 pages front and back totaling up to 20?
I'm so glad the book looks as good in person as it did online - I had no doubts though, you're amazing!

Its 10 pages double sided. Believe it or not, you really don't need that many more pages for most books-Petes book is only 15 pages and double sided so its '30' pages.
Picaboo has some great baby themes online too. I am making one for my 'Cousin-in-law' and Im doing mostly non-picaboo but using some of their pages.

You can always do it another time Stace! just keep taking pics and saving things you want to include. I will say its ALOT of work... Much more than i expected because its more than just arranging photos like for a weeding album-sentimentality is TIME consuming!

Thanks! Yeah that did seem like a ton of pages which is why it would be almost too many if it was 20 front and back. I'll let her know.

LMAO Pete has a lot of 'girliness' which is funny because he's sooo macho man in terms of his tastes and the way he looks. But he is a Gemini so I think thats where some of it comes from Its liek dating two men so i never get bored!
