library - books for inspiration

add lock of hair of first hair cut when due

hand prints, foot prints

little buttons/ribbons you like, or little swatch of favourite babygro/clothes (unless you keeping it, then photo)

cut & glue in parts of arrival/christmas/birthday cards

first holiday

first tooth

developmental stages - first time she rolled over,sat up, crawled,
first step, first word

favourite songs, stories

food likes/dislikes (also what you craved or hated during pregnancy)

(if you remember - first time you found out you were pregnant, first time she kicked, heard heart beat, names you were choosing if a boy)

nicknames you have for her,

also take a photo (as you do) at every birthday till she is 18 , than keep those clothes - you can make a patchwork project out of them and give it to her when she's say 20.
