This post is sponsored by MyPublisher, giving the baby of our family a fighting chance in the baby book competition.
One birthday down and another around the bend with our Valentine baby’s second year celebration coming up. For Lainey, a two year celebration meant sixteen albums of printed photos, three scrapbooks and a fully-detailed tooth chart on the shelf. I was also a first time parent who boiled pacifiers when they fell on the floor and organized the baby clothes drawers every three weeks. Let’s just say, sadly for Dash, I’m a little behind.
I believe in photo memories though–and not just ones that sit in folders on our computer or fill a feed on social media. I love walking through homes that are dripping with photo stories–albums sitting on coffee tables, memories framed on walls, polaroids taped to the refrigerator. It says These Are the People We Love. It says That Vacation Was Unforgettable. It says I Love Being Your Mama. I believe in making efforts to preserve these memories maybe a little more passionately for Dash because I know his printed memories take the slack for a busier family/more kids/less time.
This year, thanks to MyPublisher, I was able to easily combine all of our favorite moments from Dash’s second year into this stunning photo book. I’ve looked through it maybe twenty times already since it arrived.
I miss this baby.
My favorite thing about MyPublisher is that it offers users so many ways to customize their book. Their program is incredibly user-friendly. You upload your images, choose page layouts and drag and drop your photos where you want them. While MyPublisher offers many options for adding text, I chose a simple “just photos” layout and love the simple yet powerful result. I used several 1-photo/full bleed layouts as well as some white framing, giving the entire book a professional cohesive look. And the best part? I finished and ordered the entire book in less than an hour (hint: compile all of your photos into one folder first).
Unlike many competitors, MyPublisher prints, manufactures and ships every product it sells–with no out-sourcing–and believes that controlling its printing and manufacturing enables it to deliver consistently superior quality and service.
Page thickness, paper quality, color vibrancy–it’s all so beautiful and has withstood lots of tiny investigating hands.
I also wanted a book bound with lay-flat pages and love that MyPublisher offers that option.
They also offer several options for covers and cases. We chose a foldover paper jacket.
MyPublisher stands behind the quality of their work and guarantees every product against any defects in manufacturing, one hundred percent.
Have a baby of the family who needs some memory love? MyPublisher is giving away a $250 photo book credit to one reader. Check out MyPublisher’s site, poke around for some inspiration and then leave a comment sharing what you’d like to turn into a book. Your daughter’s first year? That last amazing vacation you took? Childhood memories for a surprise anniversary gift for your parents? Or maybe just your favorite motherhood moments thus far on your journey–so that at the end of the hardest days, you can pour some hot tea and find a quiet place to sit down with a book of your most beautiful moments. The gift of perspective.
And for those who don’t win, readers will receive 50% off MyPublisher orders over $100.00 and 25% off orders over $50.00 when you create your books here.
Our new book has already been in the hands of all the kids. I’ve found Lainey and Nella pointing to favorite photos of their brother, cracking up over how little and funny and cute he is; and I love reminiscing over all of those stories with Dash in my lap. Look at you! You are so loved.
He might keep us on our toes, but at least those crazy moments are preserved in a beautiful way–this gorgeous book that now sits on our coffee table. Because nobody puts Baby in a corner.
Thank you, MyPublisher, for sponsoring this post and thank you readers for checking out some of the businesses we love that help make maintaining this blog a little easier.
I’d love to have a book document ing my current pregnancy.
I started doing yearly family books and need to get caught up–this would be a great motivator 🙂
I still love looking through the photo albums my mom put together for my brother and I when we were kids. Now I’m making my own photo books of vacations and family holidays to show my kids some day. I’d love to make a photo book with photos from my wedding coming up in July!
I love your idea of making a book of motherhood moments. My boys are 8 and 9 and the time has just flown by! I would love to create a book that I can look at to see how they’ve grown 🙂
Beautiful! I’ve never used MyPublisher…I’ve used other vendors for our scrapbooks. Thanks for sharing!
I would love to capture my son’s first year of life in a book. His first birthday is coming up in Feb. and I’ve yet to fill out his baby book (hello second child). I have been collecting photos from the year in a file, I just haven’t found time to do anything with them… 🙂
I love photo books!! I have been so lax on keeping up with this for my 6 year old!
LOVE MyPublisher! With three kiddos, it seems like it is harder and harder to keep up with my yearly books, but I’m determined to catch up!!
Love this! This is great! Thanks for sharing.
We love MyPublisher! Easy to use, great quality! It’s been a favorite gift for the family for the past few years. We would love to document this year of my daughter becoming a big sister!!!!
I make a photo book for each year of our marriage and would love to do that again!
I would LOVE to turn my summer 2013 of working for The GO Project, a youth mission experience into a beautiful album. So many amazing pictures of youth making a difference in the lives of those who are homeless and hungry. Thank you MyPublisher and Kelle for this amazing opportunity.
I need to do a book documenting our family’s last 6 months of life.
So beautiful! I loved using this company for our professional family photos!
What a great idea…alas my babies have all grown up! I would love to put together a book of the trip I took my mom on, a week in Venice with a week traveling to Arhens. Special memories of treating my Mama as a thank you for being my inspiration.
I would create an album of all of our Christmas memories year by year. It’s been on my to-do list for a while!
Absolute stunner. I can’t to create beautiful books for my babe’s.

Being a first time mom, I want to do everything possible to soak up these memories. I would create a photo book of all the maternity and weekly bumpdate photos !!!
I’ve made some in the past and love them also! Photo books ftwwww!
This $250 coupon would be used to create a few photo albums documenting the 1st and 2nd years of my baby Jasmine, who also have DS. Since she was born, I haven’t had much money to print photobooks, due to medical bills. I love taking pictures and she is the light of my day.
I use MyPublisher to make a family year book every year! I’ve yet to complete the 2014 year book so this would be perfect timing!
I would love to make a book of just random pictures since we became a family of 4.
I’d make a book for my niece
I would love to make a book for the surprise Disney trip we took our girls on for their 5th birthday.
I have a few folders full of my favorites of my (almost) four year old–would love to make a book!
We are years behind on our albums with four kids, and my hope this year is to slowly start working our way backward over the past decade!
I am glad you made MyPublisher known to me! I would love to make a book for my second daughter. My oldest daughter has beautiful photo albums filled with memories and notes. This would be a lovely gift for my younger daughter.
I totally need to get our Disney pics from last May into a book!!
This book is beautiful! I would love to create one for my daughters first birthday!
My baby girl just turned 2 months old. I would love to document her first year!
As a photographer, it’s embarrassing to admit that I don’t have any photos printed of my own kids.

I would love to make a photo book for my cousin’s 3 year old son. I take him on a lot of adventures and take tons of photos but have yet to put them anywhere!
My twins are two and don’t have a single photobook to their names. And my 5 year old? Well his photobooks stopped about 3 years ago after finding out we were preggo with twins. Clearly I have insane amounts of catching up to do. 🙂
My son’s 4th birthday is coming up…I haven’t been as diligent with memory keeping for him as I was for my first, so I’d like to make a special book for him.
I did a Project 365 with my older daughter (and am in the process with my 5 month old) but they haven’t made it into an album… yet!
I would love to do this for both of my kids!!
My parents recently moved into a new home, so I had to clean out all of the mementos I’d been saving. I really want to make a photo book of all of the art I made growing up.
My baby boy is 3 months old so I think I’d do something about my pregnancy and his first months.
I’d love to make a book of our wedding! We were married almost 4 months ago in an outdoor ceremony with a reception following in a barn with mason jars and twinkly lights everywhere!
I love photo books! I would have to make a book for my son and daughter-in-law who have gorgeous photos from their wedding that need to be published. Also, I would create a baby book for our new grandson. (Born Dec 30 weighing in at 12 lb. 1 oz!) That would be just the start. Thanks for the chance.
My youngest first year…I did one for my oldest…and now my almost 5 year old keeps asking where her’s is…the Guilt is killing me… 🙂
I would love to create a book of our upcoming wedding!
(I am such a huge fan of your blog, Kelle. I have been following for years and enjoy each post.)
I have three (!!!) graduating from high school next year. I would use the credit to create books for each of them.
I made my 2013 family photo book using my publisher last year and would love to use then for our 2014 book!
I *SO* dropped the ball on baby books! I would love to turn all of those tidbits of info gathered on scrap papers and digital photos into a book! Five years is a lot to catch up on – this would be an amazing motivator!!
I LOVE MyPublisher—I’d make another travel book, like I usually do with MyPublisher. The lay-flat pages and glossy finish are the best I’ve ever found.
I have 3 daughters and have been playing with the idea of making annual family photo books. This would be a huge jumpstart on starting an annual tradition!
My oldest is 3.5 and I’m embarrassed to say, I haven’t made his baby book yet. I’m so overwhelmed by the sheer number of photos from his first year and I’m not sure where to start. Printing photos is also so expensive and I’ve never made it a priority.
It’s on my To Do list this year, though!
I would love to document my daughter’s 3rd year!
I would have to choose my youngest daughters first year
I have 2 Kiddos, 4 years and 6 months and no albums, I need this!
Stunning! With a nearly 2 year old and another on the way, I better get to it!! 🙂
With our first baby due any day now, I’m certain there are many photobooks in my future. I’d love to make books to share with his grandparents, as well as to document my pregnancy and his first year.
I have been scanning old letters and photos from my grandparents during WWII with the plan to get books made for our whole family. This would be a great start!
I’ve been doing a teeny bit better about all the photos I take. It’s a work in progress. My current project that I have going is my daily picture of my youngest, and last (sigh), baby. Currently on day 347 so only a few more to make a complete year. I have been trying to determine who to take and create a most fabulous reminder with and so this is exciting. Thank you!
I’d love to make books of all of my kiddos!
Need to document my son’s journey through chronic illness. I want to open that book months or years from now and remember how it was and how far he came…
Dash is such a beautiful boy!
I’d love to make a book for my youngest baby as well.
I wan to do a book documenting my son and daughter’s relationship!
What a cute idea! I’d love to make a photo yearbook for all the photos I take
I would love to make a baby book for my youngest.
Such a good idea!
I’d love to see one of their books. I have quite a few photo books but I’m afraid they won’t stand up to years of kids looking through them. And I want them to be used!
We have aimed to do a family yearbook every year. So far I’ve only done 1 in the 5 years and soon to be 4 kids together!
Honestly, of all of the online book ordering options, mypublisher seems to look the most professional. Fantastic!
I love how you find these great products and share them with us! This would be so perfect to use for my upcoming honeymoon album!
I’d start with my first pregnancy…. Now that my second was just born I’m WAY behind and feeling guilty about everything. Getting those memories out of the computer would help ease the guilt.
Beautiful!
Looking for ways to document my son’s first year and this looks perfect!
I would love to make a book of my son’s first year. I have the picture folder ready to upload. And today is his first birthday!!!
I’d love to create books for my parents, in-laws, and grandmother with memories from my wedding. I’d also make a 2nd book for myself and my mama with photos from our recent 4 week trek around Europe! 🙂
It’s sad but true that children after #1 seem to get less in the way of pictures but equal in the amount of love. Even with 14 years between my two and lots of changes in technology, #2’s baby book is scant whereas #1s is complete including first teeth. I’ll catch up. Eventually. And this would be great!
I’ve always wanted to make one of these! Thanks for the opportunity 🙂
My daughter is almost 9 and I still have yet to print up any photo books or make any albums which is CRAZY because I love photography and make photo books for family as gifts. I have been out of work for a while now due to severe back injury and would absolutelt LOVE to have this photo credit so I can start putting together photo books for my daughter.
I’m so glad you posted about MyPublisher! I love to take pictures, but actually putting them together has been a struggle. I would love to put together a wedding album from our wedding in 2012. I have a goal to do one every year for our family of 5 (Me, husband, and 3 pups!).
I would love to do a book of our engagement photos to display at our wedding!
I would do a book of my family’s favorite moments so far. Life got super hectic not long after we started having kids and all my great baby book intentions got thrown out the window. This would be an awesome compilation of 8 years of parenthood and 9 years of marriage.
I would love to turn my wedding and honeymoon photos into a book! I have been meaning to do it forever, and this would be the perfect opportunity~
As much as I would love to be creating books for our children, that doesn’t appear to be in the cards for my husband & I. But we splurged for a great photographer when we eloped so I can’t wait to create a beautiful memory book of those photos!
My baby is going to be 5 in a few short months. He’s had a rough start in life, in and out of the hospital, and I haven’t had the time to make photo books for him. I want to make a book with the first 5 years for his birthday. 🙂
I do photo books for each of my kids every year. They love to look at them with me.
We just adopted our 4 year old son this month, and I’m itching to compile the photos from his “gotcha day!”
I’d love to compile our photos of our adopted son’s long-awaited “gotcha day” from earlier this month!
I’d LOVE to try myPublisher photo books. I haven’t been very happy with the Shutterfly ones lately, so this would be a great opportunity to try a different company. I’d create a yearly album for our family with it!
I have a few years to catch up on the kids and make books.
I’d love to be able to FINALLY organize our wedding photos!
well, you definitely feel at home at my house..I have pictures of my family EVERYWHERE..walls, tables, etc. can’t bring myself to religate any to losets so i just add to the collection on a regular basis..love this much more than “artwork” by unknowns Nancy
I would love to start printing books of my son’s life. I’m a bit behind since he is already 2 years old. 🙁 This book for Dash turned out perfectly!
I would make a photo book of our wedding…almost two years later and I have yet to print a single picture! This might just be what gets me to do it!
I also do a special year book and birthday book every year for my now grands! Nancy
I would love to make a memory book for my little miracle boy we tried for five years and finally with help we have our boy!!
Love, Love, Love MyPublisher! My latest creation should arrive in the mail today and I can’t wait. Its of our family trip to Alaska in 2011. It did take me some time to finish because of such a busy schedule. I set my goal to finish it this past Christmas. Putting it together was like being on an awesome vacation all over again.
MyPublisher has excellent quality and great service. The program is supper easy to use. Highly recommended!
I want to start making family yearbooks! It’s been on my to-do list for a while!
I recently had a friend photograph the birth of our fourth child and wowsers we were blown away at how gorgeous they are, and how special it is to have them. I’d love to make a book for my daughter, Poppy, with her birth photos to treasure 🙂
I have never heard of My Publisher, but would really like to make a photo book compiling all our old family photos before they are lost forever! This sounds like a great solution.
My Mom and I just spend over $700 on a series of photo books for my wedding! And I’ve got so many more books planned. LOVE My Publisher!
So many pictures, so many not printed. Oh how I would love this!!!
That book is gorgeous – what a wonderful keepsake for everyone to look back at through the years. I would love to win this credit for my wedding photos! They are currently living on discs and in my AppleTV – I definitely need a book 🙂
OH I want this so bad! For years, I’ve been wanting to start doing this once per year to document each year since my husband and I got married – but now I’m 4 years behind and we have a baby on the way! I need this to get inspired to get going!!
So I haven’t even printed a first book for my first born (to me), much less my second. I need to get on it. This would so help. They are 4 & almost 3.
The last photo book I did was in 2009–one year before my daughter was born. She’s in desperate need of a photo book of her own!!
Our little baby just turned one. I’d love to document his first wonderful year! Thank you!!
I would love to make a family memory book of our year. And catch back up on my kid’s books. Thanks for the opportunity!
My eldest is graduating from high school in May. I’d like to make a retrospective book of her school years and accomplishments.
I’ve been looking everywhere for photo books that are worthy of wedding pictures. We got married in October, and I only have a handful of prints. I want to be able to look at them on something other than my phone. This would be so wonderful to get, we aren’t a family with babies, just he and I, but this is where our family gets to start. 🙂
I’m already anticipating making a beautiful photo book for our “trip of a lifetime” to Hawaii this year!
I would love to create a photobook of the candid photos taken during all of our wedding events (showers, bachelorette party, rehearsal, ceremony, reception, etc.). We absolutely love the photos our guests and we took at our wedding events. ~Ashley H.
I have made books with MyPublisher before and I agree they are awesome! I am behind on my photobooks right now, so I would LOVE a book credit! I would love to make some books of our recent vacations to Vegas, Myrtle Beach, and NYC!
I love these! I have missed seeing the girls books on Shutterfly!!
I’d do a book using pics and info from my blog (all about my four kiddos!)
Beautiful book! I love creating photo books of my kiddos. It’s so rewarding to look through it later with them!
This is so perfect for my project. I’ve been taking pictures of windows and doors as I’ve traveled for the past several years. I had no idea that what I was doing was actually therapeutic until I looked back and saw the theme I had consciously shot! Now, I’d like to put them in a book so I can have a reminder of how much healing I’ve done, how many doors I’ve walked through and that I’m not living life watching through a window….I’m truly living!
What a great idea! I would love to do this for my daughters 2nd year too. She will be two in March (how does time even fly that quickly?!!) So this is perfect timing!
I would love to document a trip to Russia.
We have too many family vacations that I would love to have concrete evidence of.
We took a family trip to Disneyland over the summer. I’d love to put it all in a book so my 5 and 2 year old can look at it and remember the fun we had!
I would like to document my mother’s childhood with her siblings.
I just finished using MyPublisher for a photo yearbook! (…of 2011…)… I have a little catching up to do! I plan to use them for the rest of my books (how many do I need to make now? 3?), so a credit would be much appreciated! 😉
I’d love to keep all my pregnancy weekly updates in a photo book for later!
I would love this book!!!!
You are an amazing inspiration.
Blessings!!!
I would make a book of our trip to Australia this summer or maybe one for my soon to be May baby.
Would love a beautiful memory book for our family! Thank you!
I used MyPublisher for my wedding album and loved. I’m a year behind on my older sons album, so I should probably start with that.
How beautiful! I would love to make a book of my daughter’s first year.
That is a gorgeous book! I normally just use Shutterfly but that puts that book to shame. I make my kids a photo year book each year so I would definitely put it to use since I have 3 kids!
We moved from Utah to Washington last year and it was a crazy whirlwind; right after that, I gave birth to our youngest (now 8 months). The poor guy was born during an intense time and it’s sad to say that his photo album, baby book, etc. has been neglected in the craziness of the move. I would love a photo book with photos of our move, his birth and the amazing bond that is blossoming between my boys. <3
Dashel is growing up into such a handsome little man. He’s lucky to have you as a mama!

I am in the process of trying to compile pics to make a 2014 Family photo album as well as my son’s 1st year (he is almost 15 months- I am late!). I do family albums every year through My Publisher and think they are heavenly! Would love to win!
I’ve got Baby #3 on the way this Spring, anticipating lots of photos coming up. I’m a loyal My Publisher user (and referrer!)… Just sent in my order for our 6th family 100-pager yesterday and have aslo given them to my father-in-law of his travels. I like the super gloss pages and next time would like to try the lay flat option.
I think a book about our whole family would be nice to have.
My little man’s first 6 months!
I would love to catch up on baby books for my poor third child! I have some great memories on film of him as a little guy but with three kids life has been busy! Now that he is in Kindergarten I MIGHT just be able to make time to work on putting together a book for him! His 2 older brothers have 2 each. This would be a great win for me!
My mom was so good about keeping up with photo albums, but I am so far behind for my kids. The majority of their photos are on CDs and external hard drives. Here’s to 2015 being the year their photos make it into an album!
I would love to have a book of my twin boys’ first year. Maybe this would help me get it done before they turn two!
I am so far behind with the baby books – my daughter turns 6 this year, and my son turns 3 and I still haven’t finished and printed a book for either. Partly because of the time, and partly because of the money – both in short supply as a single mom!
My baby boy’s year of being 2!
I’d love to finally create a book detailing our journeys to Peru. I manage a coffee shop that believes in direct relationally traded coffee. A group of us journey to Peru one or twice a year to spend a week living on the coffee farm with our Peruvian family. They are many family now too and I’d love to document all the trips in our first 4 years together. Both for myself and as a gift for them. The joy of pictures being a universal language. 🙂
I would love this! It would definitely motivate me to get back into making photo books for our kids. My second child is almost three and I haven’t many any albums since she was born. Yikes! I have a lot of catching up to do!!
2 years later I still need to create my daughter’s bat mitzvah album
I am behind on our annual family yearbooks (which I transitioned to after my second son was born)… Now with a 3rd baby, I realllly need to get these favorite beloved photos printed & published into their own story!
My baby girl’s first year!
I would love to gift this to my friend who had a baby recently
I would love to turn my semester abroad in Belgium into a photo book. There are so many unique pictures and memories and I just don’t have enough space to hang them all on my wall! I think a beautiful coffee table book like this would me an incredible way to share my memories with family and friends
I would love to make a book of all my daughters’ past birthday parties so they can remember all of them!
I NEED this to make a book for our Disney vacation that we took six months ago. It was our first big family vacation and I keep meaning to make a scrapbook, but the thought of all the work required makes me go hide my head underneath a pillow!
I am in the process of culling my hard drive and have not printed a picture or made a photo book for myself of my children in over 4 years. Sad, isn’t it?! I am getting ready to do so and this would be AWESOME to get!!!!!
I would love to win this! I am so overdue for a book for my daughter!
I am so bad. All our family photos sit on several external hard drives. So this mama has some serious work ahead of her to account for years of memories. I think I would first love to put a book together for my baby girl {who will be 12 in June}. She has zero baby books. Her older sister and brother were born in the era of film. She on the other hand, was the first born of digital photography. So I need to make her a book STAT! 🙂 Thank you for the beautiful reminder.
My sister is getting married in September and I would love to make a book with MyPublisher.com for her! I would love to add pictures, recipes, words of advice, etc. from her family and friends. I know she would absolutely love it and I think MyPublisher would be the best way to create this book for her!
I love my publisher. I need to do my sons baby book (he is almost 2) and I want to do yearly family albums, I am behind and need to do 2008-2014.
gorgeous!!
My fist son has a beautiful First Year shutterfly book. 6 years and 2 siblings later….that’s all we’ve got! I’m so very far behind, but desperately want physical albums instead of digital only! I love a good late-night photo nostalgia.
my wedding!
My first baby is 8 months old, and I would love to document his first year as a part of our family!
I’d document some photos of my brother who passed away this year- for my mother.
I did a “my first year book” for my oldest son and have yet to do the one for my second son. I included pictures, a story about his birth, and some of my journal entries from his firs year. He loves reading it and for a while it was the most requested book at night. I am hoping finish my second son’s book by his 2nd birthday.
I’m due to finally put our wedding album together…ten years later. 🙂
My sister and I have been planning on making a photo book of a 5 week long road trip that we went on with a friend. Such a great way to relive all the good memories!
I’d make one for my sweet (second born) little boy.
I would love to catch up on my son’s books. I also started putting together a photo book every year, but unfortunately I’ve gotten behind in year 4 and now he is 7!! Would love to try My Publisher. Thanks for offering a great giveaway!
I have been making MyPublisher books for everything since our wedding, including a two-volume “365 Days” set for each of my two boys. Next up: baby girl. $250 sounds FABULOUS!
I can’t wait to put a book together for my first year of marriage! Celebrating a year of love and getting our lives ready for some future chitlens to torment our puppy kids.
Love making books from our year of photos…admittedly a little behind recently. I’d love a spark to finish 2014!!
I would love to have a book for my boys who are 5 and 7. We take lots of pictures of them, but the pictures are all on the computer and we never seem to get around to printing them out and I find that sad 🙁
I need to make an album of my second son’s photos! My first son has 3 of them.
going to do one of my mom and dad for the grandkids and great grands
I want to create a baby book for my son
I have so many pictures of my family! Sadly, most of them reside on my computer. I’m getting pretty good at keeping them organized, so the next step is to get them in a book, printed off, and fawned over!
I would love to make a book for my daughters first year – she just turned one last week!
I am still trying to keep up with my second child’s baby book and haven’t even gotten close to doing his first year book (he’s 14 months) I need to get on the ball!
I LOVE my publisher and would love to turn our wedding photos into a beautiful book!!
These books of beautiful. I am sure my daughter would cherish it once she becomes an adult. In a world of toys, toys. toys…this would be such a warm gift for my daughter’s first bday.
I hate that all my photos just stay on my computer and never get “out.” This is a great idea to show off all the amazing faces of my boys!
I am a HUGE fan of MyPublisher! The quality can’t be beat. I would love to create a book of this last year since we moved to a new state. Big changes deserve a beautiful memory book. Thanks!
Would love to do one for our upcoming trip to Hong Kong!
My 12 year old daughter had the amazing opportunity to swim with the Dolphins at Sea World! It was so neat. It was even better because she was the only person to sign up in that time slot so it became a 45 min private dolphin interaction. It was so awesome and I want to make a book for her to remember.
Every year, I put together a photo book of our families comings and goings, our events, our trips, and our messes.
My kids love looking at past year albums, they could literally spend hours just going through them over and over!
I need to do one for my daughter!!
I’d love to make a book for a present to close friends at our college graduation this May!
I make an annual photo book usually with Shutterfly but would love to try MyPublisher!
I am about two years behind creating Family Yearbooks and would love to catch up!
Oh, that poor third baby. No photo book for my 3.5 year old baby. Been using this snow day to catch up on his memory book, but a photo book from my publisher! Oh how nice that would be.
I have several from them already. Love the quality and ease of making the book.
I would love to do this for my own Valentine’s baby! We’re closing in on one year, and we’ve had a lot of ups and downs (DS diagnosis after birth, infantile spasms), and I would love to document it all for her — the smiles and the tears 🙂
My son is 6 months old and although I have millions of pictures, I have nothing organized! Would love a book like this.
We move a lot so we make a photo book for every city we’ve lived in! We have one for Boston, Durham, and now St. Louis. We also make one for each vacation. They’re the best!
We love My Publisher at our house and have already used it for our wedding album and first house album. Would love to win so we can start working on our daughter’s first year album:)
I would love to do a summary of my youngest son’s past 7 years of his young life. So many pics on my computer and phone that need to get into a beautiful book to preserve the memories. I’ve been meaning to do this for sooo long.
I would capture my sons first year to give to his future wife on their wedding day.
I made a book documenting the first year of my boyfriend and I’s relationship, and I’ve been meaning to make a second year book since before October!
I started my daughters 1 year book over a year ago…I NEED to finish before she turns 3 😉
So behind of my boys’ photo albums. I’d lvoe to get caught up!
I’d love to make a second book of my boyfriend and I’s second year together. I made one for our first year!
It has been on my list to do a “family yearbook” forever…this would be a great way to start!
I would like to do the highlights of age1-3 for my daughter, thank you!!!!!!!
I would LOVE this. I’m always searching for companies to help make scrapbooking and memory keeping easier!
My wedding, coming up soon on April 24th.
Thanks for the chance to win!
Would love to make a book for my sister-in-law who isn’t too great at recording family events. I’ve started a folder with her family photos.
I would love to have a book to capture my son’s first birthday.
I would love to make a similar book for my daughter, but with the first 10 years of her life, especially the last 5 that I’ve got to be her mom!
Number five baby here – some thoughts. My older siblings got the good photos and the baby home movies shot by not so frazzled parents. My brother and I got some snapshots, but we had fun older siblings to play with. I think we got the best!!
Such a beautiful year 2 photo album of Sir Dashel!!
I would LOVE to receive the $250 photo book credit to put towards the dozens of books I am soooo behind on!! Creating these kinds of memories for our children is so valuable!! Thank you for sharing your treasures with all of us!!

We recently found out out second daughter will be born with Down syndrome (This led me to your blog and wonderful book, Bloom). Admittedly, I am scared as hell, but we are so excited to meet her, especially her soon-to-be big sister. A photo book would be a great way to document this change in our lives. I hope to be looking through it, one year from now, with a greater perspective and appreciation for this journey.
That book looks so adorable!! I love the set up, and Dash is such a cute little boy. 🙂
Absolutely love this! I’m behind on my baby books for my son so I’d love to do one of his second year, or one of our trip to Paris and Iceland this past spring.. probably both 😉 Love the classic hardcover book!
I have a 2 1/2 year old and an 8 month old. I would love to make a first year book for both of them and a 2nd year book for my first son. I’m really behind. 🙂
Love My Publisher! I used them to make a annual photo book, plus books for vacations and other special events. Such great quality!
I’m just over 14 weeks pregnant with my first and I would love to document the pregnancy and his first year with one of these!!
My youngest two (twins) are leaving the nest- to hike the Appalachian Trail. What an awesome way to chronicle their journey! (I’m sure going to miss them…)
I would make one photo book for my triplet girls’ first year and get three copies, one for each of them!
I would love to document my twins first two years before the third little baby comes along!
Oh man, do I need to jump on this bandwagon! I have carefully edited and organized photos of my two girls but haven’t printed any albums for 4 years! Yikes!
Beautiful book! Fingers crossed. 🙂
I am a new mom and would love to document this amazing journey!
I love photo books!
Love My Publisher! I used it first for my wedding album & have made one yearly of our vacations… This year I’m planning on making a 2014 Yearbook 🙂
Today is my daughter’s 2nd birthday! I’d love to make one for her. And then maybe one of my family’s 2014 selects – it’s been on my mental list since January 1. Down the road I might consider making one that highlights our summer trips to Germany. Endless ideas! Thank you for the opportunity to win. You are an endless resource, Kelle Hampton.
My little boy is two and I still need to put together a first year photo album. How perfect would this be?!
I would love to make my first “yearbook” for 2014!
I would like to create a book of my daughter’s first year!
We have a 4 month old so would love this!
My baby #2 has one photo ok so far, her big sis has five. So I would make a baby’s first year book – so may sweet pictures to preserve, she just keeps getting bigger!!
I’d love to get my youngest two their own first year books! These look AMAZING! I’ll definitely be making one!! Thanks so much for the info!!
XOXO
We use Blurb for our books, but I definitely wouldn’t mind trying out a new one to see how I liked it! I do a book every year, and I’m a bit behind. So I would use this to create our 2013 photo book. 😉
Always wanted to make photo books for my girls. I’ve taken so many pictures of them and sadly most of them are still on my hard drive.
I would like to make a special book for my father’s upcoming retirement. 35 years of hard work does not go unnoticed!
My wedding!! Should be getting my photo CD from my photographer any day now. So much easier to create a photo book than print a bunch a photos.
A book to document my daughter’s first year who just turned one on the 23rd!!
I have always been impressed by your books – and wish I would get my act together and make a couple for my babes.
I would love to put all of my mum and my memories and travels into a book. We hardly get to travel like we use to so reliving those memories through a book would be amazing. We started our travels when I was only 6 months old, visiting Germany, and now I am in my twenties and have piles of pictures on my computer that don’t get visited as often as they should.
I am currently working on photobooks for both of my kiddos…but in particular one for my little gal who just turned one! 🙂
Our last year- especially the snaggle toothed smiles.
Our third child (third daughter) is due at the end of May, and I’d love to give her a book documenting some of my pregnancy and her birth and some of her first days. I am also worried that this third child will lose out on tangible memory books.
I am so far behind in organizing my photos. I would love to get them off the computer and in a beautiful book so we can all enjoy the memories.
I’d love to make a book compiling photos from the past year for our family!
Just a book of the last year – I need to get some photos printed and made into books and such! Maybe a book of adventures around town!
I would like to document my engagement/Naples beach trip from July!!!
I’m expecting my first baby in May so I’m sure I could make a book with her pics! 🙂
I started doing yearly family photo books after being inspired by the ones you created for your kids and they are now among my most precious possessions. We all enjoy reading them and my daughters cousins love finding themselves in the pages. I would love to try last years memories of my daughters fifth year using my publisher.
I would love to do my son’s first year…he’s only two months though and I’m ready to make it now!
Wow, that book looks gorgeous! We’ve spent the last year in Kyoto, Japan, with our 18 month old and I’ve taken so many photos. I’d love to turn them into a book so she can look back at this time when she’s older and can’t remember it any more 🙂
I’d love to document my daughter’s first year. I’m not so good with the baby book even though she’s my first. This seems like a better documentation of her first year.
I would love to make a book of all my motherhood moments so far with my 2 year old!
I would love to create a book about my recent travels. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to make a photo book of 2014 because I need to get my photos off of the computer. I recently lost up to 10 years of photos when my hard drive crashed. Yes, I now have the pics backed up in 2 locations, but I still need to make our memories more accessible.
I’d do a book for my daughter’s first year of life!
I’d love to make a book of the first year of my partner and my’s relationship – ideally to continue making them as we go on, and add kids etc..!
This book is beautiful! I am a photographer, and I want to preserve a book of all of my memories of getting where I am. Pullbacks of shooting in the woods, snuggling babies, loving on couples, weeds, water, nights up editing late, coffee shop editing days. I want it all in one place! I love the way all of this looks so much!
I have been doing yearly books so I would love to start the year off right!
thanks
I have been scanning in my childhood pictures and would LOVE to be able to turn them into a book that will last forever (as pictures yellow and fade!). This would be amazing to win!
Would love to get caught up and make something for the three kiddies, I just have pictures on thrown in a box, these books are way better!
This looks amazing. I am also guilty of not developing as many photos of my 2nd daughter. Ive been eyeing photo books and this company looks great! Thanks for the chance!
What a beautiful thing! I’ve got a fresh babe (#2!) that sure could use one of these!
A huge, 9 months pregnant me could not rest until I found the perfect one, searched high and low, for a baby book! And now that sweet baby is nearly 5 months old and I haven’t written a single thing in that perfect book! Thankfully Ive got gobs of photos!
I’m not exactly sure what I’d make – so many possibilities! Maybe an album for my parents anniversary highlighting all us kids for the past 32 years? Or my own life as an adult? Something else? One thing for sure though, these albums are beautiful.
Oh it’s family yearbook time again and My Publisher books look lovely!
so many photos of our first kiddo. seriously, I need to get them all in a book!
You are inspiring me to make a photo book documenting my son’s second year as well! I am never without my beloved camera- I am constantly taking photos. It’s the next step of organizing them into an album that I struggle with.
Create a memory book of my daughter’s dance recitals and performances… twirls, hip shakes, bhangra and beauty- she is my Bollywood star in the making!
I love love my publisher- I make all of my photo books through them- I actually have three photo books made but have not purchased them yet because of our budget cuts- But I make them as they are my memory albums documenting my everyday life with my hubby and two children- and I cherish our everyday- I love taking pictures and being my family’s memory keeper. We love to look at all the books I made- I started with just baby books but now just make our family albums for each season – i try to capture it all! I would love to purchase mine-and continue to document my everyday- loved your post- thanks for sharing!
Would love to make a book of my dd’s upcoming wedding….
I would love to get a book started for each of my kids (11) and (7). I’ve never done one for them and would love to start!!!
I am obsessed with My Publisher books. I made my first one for my wedding. Other books include vacations and my son’ first, second and third year books. But by far my favorite is his NICU book. There are holes in my memory of those long three months, but my documentating at the time is now preserved in the most precious book. I hope someday my son will read it and understand his amazing strength as a fighter.
I would love to make a book of our trip to Disney (3 years ago – oops!) because I just haven’t gotten around to finishing that scrapbook. And as a bonus I could order two of them so each child would have their own!
I’d love to make a book for my 2 daughters that documents our recent road trip and cross-country move from Idaho to Washington, DC.
I am hoping to create picture books for each of my three kids to give them when they leave home. I’m thinking three a piece. Lots of work ahead!
I want to have a photo book for each year of my girls lives – my oldest turns 10 in two days, and we have so few pictures printed out. I was so good before I got married; I have tons of photo albums all organized, but I never got in the habit once it all went digital. It’s probably number one on things that I really want to get done this year!
Their photo book options look amazing! Hope to win & if not I’ll definitely use the coupon code – thank you!
When I was pregnant with my son I bought an adorable scrapbook & all sorts of cute stickers & ribbons to really personalize the memories. During my maternity leave I think I filled about 3 pages with photos of his first few months. My goal was to put in 2-5 pages per year and have at least until age 5 captured in photos – if not more. (The scrapbook had room for extra pages and I bought a lot!)
He is now almost 3 and I have not filled any more pages – and only have a few printed photos. I work full time and there seems to be less time every year. And now I am pregnant with baby #2!! Seems I really should complete at least one photo book for my son before life becomes even more hectic!
I’d love to do a photo book for each kid for each year.
I would love to win this to use on a book for my “grand” daughter. Thanks for the chance. Love your book about Dash! He is precious.

I actually have a MyPublisher book all ready to go that I was waiting to ship with our family yearbook that I finish it. It’s from our Disney trip and I’ll be giving it to my two year old so that he can look at pictures of his cousins that live far away. I’m so thankful that we were able to go on the trip with them!
I just had engagement pictures done and still haven’t printed any!! This would be perfect!
I have over 2000 photos from our California adventure last May that are screaming to be made into a book. We are big picture people too and love looking through books, watching slideshows of our life and having smiling faces on our walls. Beautiful giveaway.
Oh my word, all of these books are SO beautiful. I don’t know how I would decide. 🙂 I would definitely make a book of my 3 year old son. I’d probably start with his first year (yes, I am WAY behind…lol).
I will soon be working on a new profile book for our next adoption – this would be great!
I would simply LOVE to create a book of our childrens first birthday parties.
My twins will be five in March. I would love to create a beautiful book for both of them capturing what a magical 5 years we have had as a family.
Perfect timing! I’ve been thinking so much lately about how I need to compile our pictures into photo books. We just got back from a vacation to Disney World, so that has inspired me to get started. I want one for each vacation we take, one for each of my kid’s first years, and one “family album” of each year!!
My second baby is due for her first year photo book in a month, but I think I’d use MyPublisher to make a photo book for my mom. My dad passed away just over a year ago and I want to make her an album of photos of them together.
I would love to make a pregnancy and newborn book for our son, Eli. He was a surprise conception after 8 years of infertility. Thank you for the chance to win!
i love mypublisher. photobooks are my most precious treasured belongings
This would be perfect for my Son and his Wife who just had their 1st baby girl! This would help capture all of those 1st memories in book form! Thanks!
I was very ill last year and wasn’t sure I would live to meet my first grandchild who has downs syndrome. My health has improved and adorable Cal is the light of my life. Would love to create a book celebrating life…his and mine.
I would love to make one for my little photog business.
A family album of the last year,
Our last family trip to visit our family in Alaska. Would love to have a book to display those incredible memories of a once-in-a-lifetime trip!
Totally guilty of hoarding pictures on my computer and doing nothing with them. Would love to make a book of my little girl’s first year!
I’d love to make a book documenting all the memorable moments of the past five years. My family has been through a lot since my now five year old twins were born – their very premature births, a long and complicated hospitalization, diagnoses of Cerebral Palsy for both of them, and cancer for me. Over that time my family, but especially my daughter and her brothers, have matured and strengthened beyond my wildest dreams. Now the boys are in school and I am back to work and a new chapter begins – but I’d love the commemorate the previous chapter!
My husband and I have been married for a year now. I would love to make us a photo book!
A book of my four girls and their men…because I love each one of them!
I want to do yearbooks for our family.
Family yearbooks!
Oh I would love to make a photo album for my newest brother who was adopted from Honduras last year! He would love that….
Anything from the last five years would be great for a photobook….all those pictures are trapped in my computer waiting for someone to print out one day…maybe I could squeeze it all in to one giant book!
Have been looking to do this on a budget. Great resource.
I want to make a book for my inlaws. This book would be of their years of being wonderful grandparents. Pictures of them with the four grown grandchildren, and now 6 great grandsons. They are in their 80’s now and it would be wonderful for them to look at and share with their friends.
These would be great for travel memories as well. Get those pictures out of the camera and phone and laptop.
I would like to start making albums twice a year, ideally every six months so that I can use many of the photos I take and store on my computer. I love MyPublisher!
I’d love to make a book each year for my son and daughter.
Would love to make a book of my last pregnancy, pix of us before baby brother joined our family.
I also have three kids and I have been doing a yearly book for each of them. I am behind. The poor thir child is 17 months old and still no first year book. My daughter is three and missing that third book and my 5 yr (goodness almost 6) is missing two books. I would love an incentive to get caught up!
I would make one for my baby is as…she’s 2.5 now 🙂
I volunteer for Reece’s Rainbow (the organization that raises funds for international adoption of kids with special needs like Down Syndrome, for anyone reading this who’s unfamiliar with it) and would love to compile a book with the kids who came home in 2014!
I would love to create a book of our 6 animals – 4 dogs (Penny, Lola, Kramer, Dolce) and 2 cats (Newman and Delores). Our two girls would get the biggest kick out of it!
I love MyPublisher. We try to create a book every year and we have 3 currently, but we’re also really behind. They’re great! Yours turned out beautifully.
We have a bazillion slides (SLIDES) from the year we lived in Nepal. At the end of our time, we adopted our daughter, who is now in college (COLLEGE!!). Last summer, we went back with her to show her the village where she was born and we met her biological brother, who is amazing. I would like to take the aforementioned ancient relics (slides) and turn them into a book for her.
I too believe in photo memories!! It’s hard but definitely worth the effort putting photobooks together! I’ve been struggling to limit pictures on a fantastic 3week trip to Japan I took with 6 of my dearest girlfriends into one book but with $250 credit I can maybe break this up into a bit of a series of adventures! MyPublisher is my fave & go-to company for books too so winning would be wonderful!
Love MyPublisher!! Their quality is amazing. Thanks for the opportunity to get some pictures off my computer and on the coffee table!!
I would love to get my son’s 2nd year book made too. I keep capturing the moment, but have fallen off the book making wagon!
I really need to redo my 9 year old sons baby book! It’s bad and he’s jealous of the other 2 kids!
My second baby is the poor neglected one when it comes to photo books. I’d love to try this out for him!
Would love to win! Photo books are awesome
I have so many photos of my children stored on the computer. It would be so great to be able to finally put these into print.
My daughter is 3 months old tomorrow! She is likely going to be our one and only and I am committed to making the most out of these early years. I would like to make a book for each month of her first year. I am writing her letters that I would love to include typed out in the books. I know it’s lofty of me, but since it’s my first and likely only, I am hoping I can stick to my plan 🙂 I am certainly going to check out MyPublisher to make my books! I made a small book of a newborn photo session with Shutterfly and it took me about a week! Their design layout was a bit of a hassle.
I’d make some books chronicling each year of my family since my husband and I got married. We have a passel of wonderful children (7!), so it’s too expensive to create a book for each child per year, but I have untold pictures languishing away in electronic form. Last year, I made a cumulative “Book of 2014” for us to keep and to give away. One year of marriage and children down, and only 12 left to go! Saying this photo book credit would come in handy is a huge understatement. 🙂
I am about 3 years behind so this would be AWESOME!
How lovely! I’ve used My Publisher for travel photo books and think they’re beautiful!
My fiancée never had a baby book or even photo albums full of baby photos…photos of his first years were, and still are, stuck in a box in the basement of his family home. I would love to compile a photo book of his first years as a gift at our upcoming June wedding. Love the pictures of Dash, such an adorable little man!
I would love some keep sake books of the babies but honestly we got married before these types of books were affordable. Our wedding album is barely holding on and currently sits in a box. I would love to have a full printed book with the flat pages to view and enjoy and share with our littles.
My daughters first year!
My son is almost 9 months old, and I’d like to make a book of his first year.
I’d love to win this to document my little man’s first year. Only 3.5 weeks left till I meet him ❤️
I would make a book of my grandmother’s childhood photos from the early 1900s. I recently discovered tons of old family photos that I’ve never seen before. It was Some dating back to 1908. My grandmother was one of ten children growing up in Hoisington, KS in the early 1900s. Her parents, my great-grandparents, took so many wonderful photographs. I would love to scan them all and make a book of these treasures.
I have wanted to try MyPublisher! I have tried a few of the other companies, however I like hearing about the quality that you share that MyPublisher uses. What would I make is the big question? There are years 1 & 2 of the last baby in our family, our bi-annual family vacations from the last 6 years that are still waiting to be put into a book. So many wonderful memories – they only need a suitable home & book to go into 🙂
I’d LOVE to actually get some of our vacations printed. I keep starting scrapbooks, and getting a few pages done, and then they sit on the shelf until the next vacation, where it starts all over again.
Looks beautiful! We have ordered mini photo books from there and I believe Christmas cards a long time ago but never a big photo book. I will have to give it a try! Thanks
I’m excited to check it out! I just started a book from my year of teaching abroad and this looks like the perfect format to use for it! Your book looks lovely!
Well, I may want to use it for photos from a big beach vacation we will go on this summer, or I really need to get back into my yearly photo books. I think I’m 3 years behind now.
I would like to make a book about my son’s adoption story- detailing his few years without us, our wait for him, and finally our family being united.
My daughters first year. She is my youngest of three and only girl, and while Ive got loads of pictures, few have been printed and documented well like her brothers. Her brothers have full baby books and hers is nearly empty! 🙁
This is a great motivator. Have been wanting to do this for awhile. Some how I find excuses.
I would love to make a first year book for my second child. I’m already falling behind and I only have two!
Daughter #3 needs her first year photobook! I want to be better about making books and printing photos!
I love scrapbooking! With 3 kiddos and a job as a pediatric nurse, I rarely have the time! I have used several companies and would love to try this one! After 2 girls and all things pink and frilly, it will be fun to put together a book for my 7 month old BOY!
I LOVE photo books and I just started a big project making family yearbooks! This would be perfect!
I only have one little girl but seem to be doing what you did with your first. I’m baby number 4 and have maybe five pictures of me as a child.
I used shutterfly for the albums I made my little girl… I wonder how MyPublisher compares to it?
My adopted son’s baby book. Foster care adoptions are difficult when you want a traditional baby book!
I need to catch up and do our 2013 family photo book! 🙂
what a beautiful book! you’ve inspired me! I would love this giveaway to print up my blog!
I would create s book of the last two years… Because somehow, my hard drive and my backup hard drive both crashed at the same time, and I only have the photos of my babies that I printed out – which are very few. I was so depressed, I quit taking photos for awhile. Until I realized that at least I still have those few precious photos and I don’t want to miss out on anymore of their short childhood. So I’ve been wanting to get a photo book! 🙂
I would love to make a book of pictures centered around moving and adjusting to our new area!
You have beautiful blog and I also follow you on IG. Lovely family!
I’d love to document our IVF journey.
With my daughters second birthday fast approaching (February 4!) I too would love a book documenting her first and second year
I so need a photo book for all the photos I have taken in the past few years..
I would love to make a book for my baby’s first year — but that won’t be for another year and a half or so. If I couldn’t wait that long, I would make a photo book of the beautiful wedding of me and mine from last summer!
I would make a book capturing my childrens relationship with each other. The hugs, the fights, the hidden tender moments. all of them.
good, bad and ugly
This would be perfect for my youngest son’s first year.
Oh man! So many possibilities! I was just thinking today how I wanted to have my 365 photo a day made into an album OR I am taking a picture a week of the girls I nanny for and it would be perfect to give their parents:) Thank you!
I am so behind on my photobook making for my kids.
I have been thinking of doing a photo book of my Dad’s Stock car racing career when I was a child. He has since passed of Brain Cancer but I would love to preserve all the memories in one place forever.
I would use it to make a book for my adopted daughters birth mom. What a treasure!
I haven’t started my 18 month old’s baby book yet *for shame* and I would love to do a classy photo book like this one!
I make photo books every year but have never used mypublisher! Dash’s book looks adorable- I love the layouts you shared.
-Renae
For the past two and a half years I’ve been participating in Fat Mum Slim’s photo a day challenge. I’d love to compile the 365 images I’ve taken the have encapsulated the last two whole years. These books look incredible.
I need to make so many books! Especially of my third baby boy!
I have baby books for all of my kids but some day they will leave (sniff, sniff) and take the books with them. I would make a book for me and my husband to keep to document our almost 13 years of marriage and our favorite kid and family pictures.
Also, can you comment on the difference in quality between Shutterfly books and MyPublisher books? We have some Shutterfly books and I don’t feel the print quality is as high as it could be.
I would love to put together a new photo book for my 14 year old (step)son. He’s still such a sentimental kid, and we haven’t done a new one in a few years (not as many photos as we’d like – not as much family time as we’d hoped for). His dad & I want him to see a collection of books, so he knows without a doubt that he is always on our minds & in our hearts – whether we see each other or not.
I’m behind on my yearly books. I’d love to be able to catch up on those!
I would love to create a book for our family! I admire that you have done this each year for your kids.
I love your blog! Inspirational is an understatement! I am dazzled by your zest for life (and all things colorful!), and your passion as a mother! We need more people like you in this world! Ok, just wanted to get that off my chest! 😉 I would use my book to document memorable, “if I could have this moment for life” moments with my two little boys! The messy, hilarious, and perfectly imperfect adventures with them. I have this irrational and deep sadness when I think of them growing older than “my babies” and this will help preserve these memories!

OUR FAMILY YEARBOOK!
I want to make a book to document my nephew’s first year. This would be a stunning way to do so!
All my roadtrips!
I always love having albums of my twin girls-kinders now!
I am in need of making a book for my daughters first year in sports! She has grown so much more confident in how strong and graceful her body has become!!
I made memory books for my daughter and have never gotten around to making them for my son. Now with Baby #3 on the way, I better get moving on his books!
My son has special needs and he has come so far in his 4 years. I would love to make a photo book to document his journey from this 3 month hospital stay after he was born to now 🙂
How adorable! You did a great job!
I would love to just do a “Brothers” photo book of my boys. I have books of my oldest from before my youngest was born (5 years after his big brother) and then a book for my youngest’s first year (he’s now almost 4) and I hate the pressure of doing “annual” books because I never seem to get photos from each month/holiday/milestone that are “good”. SO…I’ve been thinking lately about just doing a “Brothers” book that captures them together as they are now (with some older photos of them thrown in for good measure). I’ve done books through Shutterfly in the past and I see they are affiliated with MyPublisher, but wow…swoooooon, their site is amazing. I am loving the lay flat pages and the dust jacket? I’m such a sucker for paper…it’s the reason I still send lots of snail mail…now if only I could figure out how to make a living on sending random pretty mail to people….
I have been wanting to make a book about my pregnancy as well as my son’s 1st year! Time has escaped me also – lol 🙂
I am obsessed with photo books!!!! I will make very good use of the credit!!
I would love to make a book of my pregnancy and my daughters first year. She is such a joy and I want her to have a special keepsake when she is old enough to appreciate it.
I’ve used MyPublisher before, they are great! i’m trying to make yearly photo albums, but haven’t made one for 2014 yet, so that’s what I would make 🙂
I’m way behind. I need to get a book together already!
My first son was born before the digital age of photos. The other two boys have beautiful photo baby books. I’d love to scan all of the photos and make one for him! They are such beautiful keepsakes.
I’d love a book for a family trip we took a couple years ago for my Grandma’s birthday!
love to commemorate ilfe with my little boy before #2 arrives this summer.
Your book turned out beautiful! Maybe this will be the kick in the pants I need to create our wedding photo book. We have been married more than four years!
These are beyond gorgeous! Would love to make a book for each of my 3 boys, starting from their births.
We went on a trip to Alaska a few years ago — I’d love to have a book documenting our trip!
I’d love to get caught up on my son’s baby books! So easy to put them off, but so much fun to get them done!
I’d love to make a book of our trip to Colorado in 2013. We went exploring and then attended the National Ds Conference. I still haven’t made a scrapbook of the trip but I do have pics in frames. And photo mugs. 😉 Karen H.
love how you embrace the busier life and still find a way to create a lovely memory book 😉
I would love to make a book of my daughter’s first two years! I have so many great pictures, but no where to put them!
My baby boy will be one year old in May, and I’d love to make book for his first year!
I’ve been trying to take at least one picture a day of my daughter since she was born almost 11 months ago. I’d love to make a book with a picture per day so we can see how much she’s grown.
We are expecting our first baby is a couple months so I would love to win!!
I’d love to do family yearbooks- would be amazing to enjoy all the photos on my computer!
What an awesome idea and so perfect! Love it
I’ve been feeling the urge to create family yearbooks. I’m a few years behind but I need to start somewhere!
what a priceless momento! thanks so much for sharing.
I want to document my pregnancy with my very first baby and his arrival/first year starting this May!
I’ve been meaning to start family yearbooks for a while now starting with when my daughter was born but just haven’t been able to get to it. This would be awesome!
Baby number three has a baby book that is quite sparse – she could use some memory love in the form of a MyPublisher book. Her 2nd birthday is in June.
My mom and my husband took some amazing pictures during my delivery that I would love to turn into a book. They aren’t exactly frameworthy (since they are graphic), but they are a beautiful remembrance of a special day
I would love to document my daughter’s birthdays!
I have so many favorite photos of my 7 and 6 year olds and would love to make a book for each of them.
I agree with Jessica. I am a middle baby who got lots of scrapbooks. I would make my number four baby brother a book from pictures mom has snapped over the years. He is graduating high school this spring and I am so proud!
I participated in a My 365 photo challenge last year on Instagram would love to print those photos as a book!
It would be so fantastic to be the lucky recipient of the $250 photobook credit by MyPublisher! I’d use it to create a book for my youngest child Oscar, born at 31 weeks and with an undiagnosed cleft lip/palate. It would mean so much for me to have a lasting memory in a beautiful bound album – following his progress from when he was born, the stay in NICU, coming home, his corrective surgeries, and now to the wonderful, cheeky little man he is today!
There are several books we’d love to create – our past few vacations to Canada, St. John, & Iceland – such beautiful places to be commemorated in special, personal books for our family.
I have 2 empty photo albums that I’ve had in their original boxes stored in my upstairs closet. I had intentions to fill the pages with all of my girls’ baby photos, but the task has proven too daunting. Winning this album would be a dream come true and the end of my girls’ childhood preservation procrastination.

Our daughter Addy was born missing her right hand and forearm. Her birth was traumatic, coupled with the fact that I went through the experience alone with my husband serving in Afghanistan. I would love to be able to document her birth date and all the emotions and stories associated with it, for her to have later in life, so she knows how loved she was from the moment she entered the world!
Love <3
Our adoption journeys!!
I just created a book with photos from my daughter’s 14th birthday. It is so fun to flip through especially since I included a couple of QR codes that link to birthday videos on Vimeo once they are scanned. Now I’d like to create a book with all of our Christmas photos from years past!
I’d love to make a book for grammy and grampa who live far away, this kid sure grows fast…
I would love to create a book from our BIG disney trip last April! Its been almost a year and all of the pics are sitting on my hard drive…tucked away where noone can see them 🙁
I would love to have this book to document our recent trip to Europe, to share with our future grandchildren.
I’m doing a 365 project this year that I’d love to put in an album.
Love their books and with 4 grandsons, I’m falling way behind!
I’d love to make a book for the birth of my first baby.
Our wedding, been putting it off because it’s soooooo expensive. This would be perfect!!
I would love to create some books for my daughters first 2 years!
LOVE making these books every year…although I have yet to begin 2014’s yet. I should do that.
I would love to make myself a book of my senior year of college – it was the year I got into photography and I have tons of pictures I’m proud of, but no where to go with them
The books are beautiful! I would love to make one
I have a book for each one of my dear littles, but I would LOVE to do a book for my hubby for Valentine’s day!
I’m only 12 days into Mommyhood, and can’t wait to do a photo book for my Little!
I’d love to be able to have one of these books to document my wedding. We have so many pictures and they’re all just sitting on a CD waiting to be looked at.
I’d love to do a book of my daughter’s first year.
Would love to make a book for my hubby of our dating years.. Got all the pics waiting on me.. They’re too precious to stay hidden..
I love MyPublisher. I used them for a few books for family, but never really had a need to make a book for myself. Until now. My first pregnancy is almost over and I’d love to document it. As well as baby’s first year after if happens.
Oh I am working on a MyPublisher book right now for my just-turned-one-year-old! This would be wonderful!
I want to make a family tree book.
OK, how cute is Dash? Seriously. What a sweet baby. The book looks awesome. I love that the girls are looking at it and treasuring it as often as they can.
I have so many events that need books. I think the first thing I need to do is make Bria a book. She is feeling unloved lately. Yesterday she asked me why there aren’t pictures of her all over the house like Kaish. Even though my account is hovering under $100, I went to Staples today and make 4 huge prints of her beautiful face to put up. I don’t ever want her to feel unloved.
Thank you for being my counselor!
I would love to make a book of the first year of my son and daughter together.
I’d love to create a favorite moments album!
I would make a book with photos from our grandchildren’s visit to us last fall and sen them a copy as a surprise.
