Blog Books!

When I recently posted on Facebook how excited I was about ordering the 2010 Blog Book for "Three Schneiders," I was surprised to hear how few people knew that such a thing was possible.

Don't get me wrong- I enjoy blogging. BUT...the main reason I blog is to create a record for our family. The blog is equal parts photo album, baby book and family journal. At the end of every year, we use this great service: www.blog2print.com to convert our blog into book form.  And, personally, they are even more fun in the book form than the blog.

Here are the 2007, 2008 & 2009 books. 2010 is on its way!
 Here's what the inside looks like. I turned to a random page - this is from a trip we took to NYC just before Josie's first birthday. (Wow Molly - haven't things changed a lot since then?!)

You can say that again, sweetie!!! On a related note: I'm soooo happy I was with Josie for her first visit to the New York Public library :) And - I passed this blog book info along to my sis-in-law...she's so grateful!

I have not used that site. I use blurb.com. I will need to try this site to see which is better:) I too blog for this reason! Easy way to journal with pictures.
