Alphabitty Moments--Week 1

During the Not Me! Monday extravaganza, I met MamaBear, who is launching her own blog-to-book business. She has created this somewhat more productive blog carnival called, Alphabitty Moments. Once a week, I will be completing pages in a family alphabet book to help Nicholas learn his letters (later, obviously) and preserve some cherished family memories. Here is my first attempt:
I chose alligator for A, because Nicholas's nursery is decorated in a safari motif, and an alligator is a central character in his bedding. Coincidentally, a co-worker gave us this adorable robe and slipper set (he has long since outgrown the slippers). It has looked so cute hanging on the back of his bedroom door, and I realized with a pang of nostalgia that he is outgrowing it. Sigh. So, now it is forever preserved in his alphabet book! Thanks for the great idea MamaBear! Stop by her site for directions to play along.

  2. I do agree, what a cute robe.

    There are just a few things sweeter than a freshly bathed baby in a cozy towel or robe.

    Thanks for the picture.
