I've never done any scrapbooking, which is probably good for my rage (Don't ever ask about the time I learned to crochet. Can you say homicidal?). I just get...so...irritated when everything isn't perfect the first time. I do better with something more physical like sports. Fortunately, my sister-in-law loves scrapbooking and, to my knowledge, hasn't turned homicidal in the process.
Julie offered to take our photos and numerous ultrasound pictures of Isaac and make us a scrapbook. At first, I wasn't sure I would like a scrapbook. They seem like such happy things. It's not that we weren't happy about Isaac, but there was so much stress involved in the pregnancy. When I look at those ultrasound images, I can remember each appointment and the bad news that followed. I didn't know if putting those memories in a scrapbook would really be what I wanted. But what do I know? The scrapbook is amazing! Julie did a great job! I'm glad she could see the potential when I couldn't.
These pictures just don't do the book justice, but I wanted to share some of the pages anyway.

What a wonderful book!
What a sweet tribute to your little Isaac. I love it!
Still thinking of you guys and praying often. I just love seeing your little Isaac's pictures... he is so precious.

The book is so sweet.
She did such a wonderful job on this scrapbook! I think its a wonderful thing to have a scrapbook- Not just for you & CJ to look at and remember, but for your future children to look at. Now they'll not only hear about Isaac, but they will be able to see pictures and share your memories. I was zooming in on his pictures and was struck by what a beautiful baby he was!
How beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
what a sweet gift, and I agree that it will be a wonderful way for your future children to get to know the story of your precious, firstborn son
What a special tribute to your Isaac! It will be a great way to keep his memory alive.
