A Baby Gift For Alyssa

Hi there!
We have started to make a Scrapbook for Alyssa’s baby, just as a fun memento and a way for us to actually be able to do something in order to satisfy our feelings of ‘my sister’s having a baby’ (or is that just me?!)! So it is a normal sized scrapbook (here in Australia anyway) 12” x 12” or 30.5cm x 30.5cm. We are asking everyone to do just one page and then post it on within a week. Basically the page can be anything; advice, poetry, pics, songs, whatever lol!  Unfortunately there isn’t enough time to have everyone who would want to take part actually able to do so, so we are just playing it by ear and asking people one at a time.  If you are keen let me know asap and include your postal address.  Then again when you receive it email me and I’ll send you the forwarding address.

So glad you are all taking part in this. We have started quite early so hopefully it will reach many of you before September! Part of the reason (other than numbers) I wanted to start so early was I thought it would be cool to show that the baby is loved before even arriving and to go through stages with Alyssa. By that I just mean initially we don’t know the sex of the baby so the pages and content will be unisex and towards the end it will be more specific. Also if you know any cool facts about bubs development at the time you are doing it or something specific Alyssa has mentioned at the time it would be cool to add that. Basically put whatever you like!
v  Send me an email AS SOON AS you receive this so I can send you the forwarding address and keep track of where it is at!
v  Post it on within a week max (please!). Postage could take a while, especially the ones going international so we need to be as quick with it as we can.
v  The final stop will be with Lippy so he will kindly take pics/vid of the final product which we will send out in an email…I know I’ll be keen to see what it looks like!
v  Remember to add your name to your page and your country would be cool too.
