Kids' Photo Books

I have been way busy organizing photos, my blog book, and the kids' school scrapbooks.  I saw this idea last year on Sherelle Christensen's blog and LOVED it!  Here is her link to the idea -  http://sherellechristensen.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/02/soive-told-you-that-i-have-finally-come-up-with-a-way-to-satisfy-myself-i-love-scrapbooking-both-digital-and-paper-but.html#comments

You can slurp an entire folder of pictures in a matter of minutes into Blurb and then print them out into a book.  When I download photos I have a folder for each month which then goes into that year's folder.  I then have a folder for each of my kids' for the year.  So all I had to do was slurp the folders for each of my kids.
After the slurping you can then go through and decide the sizes of the photos and where you want them in the book.  I tried to just keep it chronological.


Some have more than just the 8 pictures, and some are full page spreads.

I KNOW that my kids NEVER see some of the pictures I take.  This way they have all the pictures of 2009 and can actually look at them.  I then save the folder to disc and know that all the pictures contained in this book can be found on their 2009 disc. 
And yes I still have scrapbooks for each of the kids.  I will have to share what those are in another post.  There is organization over here at the Thompson's, it's just getting it all caught up.  I was jealous when my sister Alesha announced last week that she is completely caught up on her scrapbooks of 2009. 
At least I have all of my kids pictures books done.  But then again, that wasn't too difficult!
Here is the back of Ash's book -


Now to just get each of the kids' scrapbooks all caught up!
