Review of the Precious Moments Memory Book and Keepsake Box by Jenny and Jeff

Does it make me a bad mom that I’ve had a baby book and memory box for over three months and haven’t opened it yet? What if I add how our little guy is going to be two next month… does that add to your thoughts on me?

Well… I am going to have to face your judgement because it’s true. I’ve had a baby book saved in my Amazon wish list for over a year, but never actually added it to my cart. …It wasn’t expensive, so that’s now why. …I think the thought that if I had it then I would have to start it kept me from buying it.

It’s overwhelming!

I’ve been keeping all those tidbits, hospital bracelets, first hair cut clipping, and his milestones in an organized place in his room and on my phone. But I haven’t had the pull to actually start writing and gluing… There’s just a lot.

I guess my Mom realized that I hadn’t started one so she bought me one for Christmas. It was the exact one I wanted, the one in my wish list. I was excited and imagined me having a fun afternoon of going through all his keepsakes and filling in his book…

But that was over three months ago. Here I am with it still in it’s plastic wrap. I can tell myself it’s because of my exam that was this past week or perhaps it was because of tax season… I don’t know. But I do know it’s getting ridiculous that I haven’t started it yet.

Here I am today forcing myself to open the box and just start. The first step is figuring it all out… what to include, what pictures will need to be printed and so on. In today’s video I’m sharing my first impressions and a quick look through of the Precious Moments Memory Book and Keepsake Box by Jenny and Jeff. What I was most excited about this kit is that it’s for our son’s first five years.

I knew that since we were quickly approaching his second birthday I needed something that was compact, concise and could hold more than one year. If I was going to do it then I needed to make it easy on myself.

Now that it’s open, it’s time to get going. I’ve made a list of the pictures I want to print out (luckily I have all my pictures backed up to my Google Drive so it made finding them by date a breeze!) and just need to get them ordered.

You can find the Memory Book on amazon for less than $22.00. Again, it comes with the book that has enough space for the first 5 years and it comes withe a memory box for some precious keepsakes.
