When They Were Little

I love it when I go looking for one thing and I come across something special. This happened to me the other day when I went looking for a picture from years ago, and I stumbled upon these gems of my kids when they were little bitty. I look at them now and can't believe how big they've gotten or how much they've changed.

There was a time that I would scrapbook and make sure that my pictures were printed and dated and put into a book for preservation. Now, I'm lucky if can remember to print photos and when and wear the photo was taken. In 2016, I'm going to work harder to make sure that I print more photos and put them in scrapbooks. They don't have to be elaborate works of art. Just photos and words is all I need to remember my kids when they were little. 

How do you preserve family memories? Do you scrapbook? Do you create photo books through sites like, Shutterfly? I'd love to hear your ideas!
