Maybe some of you can use this idea too!
I made a calendar using pictures of Lyndsey. For each month, I dressed her in something to represent the month/season. (I also used some older pictures of her that were good)
For example...I put her Christmas dress on and let her hold a stuffed snowman for the December picture. I used an 'old' picture of her in sunglasses and a tank top for the July picture.
I uploaded the pictures to shutterfly.com and put borders around the pics [that also went along with the month/season.] OH MY GOODNESS...they came out amazing!! I just got them in the mail (and I only ordered them on Saturday! ) They cost $20 and they are spiral bound and a very nice quality. Shipping was free. I highly recommend these calendars!!

That's a neat idea. I think I will try that next year.

I didn't know Shutterfly offered that! I was thinking of ordering some other pics from them, so maybe I'll look into doing this too! THanks! I am SURE Lyndsey's grandparents will LOVE them!

Photos please!!! Great idea. I actually love getting those photo mugs of my nephew as gifts- the ones that say Special Aunt or something and have his picture on the other side. I think these types of gifts are so great!

I am having Annalise give them to all her relatives too. I am not yet sure which site I am using since there are a lot to choose from.
