Check out this awesome project documenting little Gavin's first year, as described by his mom, Traci on her
blog:
These photos represent each day of Gavin's first year of life - 367 to be exact since 2008 was a leap year and his first birthday is included as well. Not long before Gavin was born, I got the crazy idea of taking Gavin's photo every day of his first year. Wouldn't it be neat, I thought, to be able to someday show Gavin a photo from each day during his most formative year. Never again in our lives do we develop and grow so much in just one year so this seemed to be the perfect way to capture the changes.
Now isn't that genius? I know we all document the heck out of our children's lives, but I just love the extra twist of formality -- the conscious creation of a visual calendar of development. Plus, the final result looks so cool! Click

Aw, man. I suck as a mom.
ReplyDeleteI must figure out some cool project for my Pea...
Brilliant!!
ReplyDeleteI need to bookmark this for when we start having kids. In 2017.
Aw, I so wish I had thought of that. Very cool!
ReplyDeleteHilarious and kind of amazing. I know I take that many pictures already. Quantity is my strong suit. Organization on the other hand, not so much. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! After doing the 365 project, I'm determined if I ever have a child to do something like this. I think it's so special. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, I wonder if it is too late to start? This is so cool!!
ReplyDeleteThat is cool but I don't think it would be for me. Unless I had a huge house for three of those monstrous things ;)

Oh my gosh, I'm totally going to steal this idea for the next baby. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYeah, wish I had thought of that too. So neat! :~)
ReplyDeleteHey, Leigh! That is *really* cool. Kudos to that mom for having the dedication and the energy to pull out her camera every single day...and then to organize the photos so beautifully and brilliantly.
ReplyDeleteI am completely envious of the forethought and dedication it took to follow-through on this project. But oh my goodness, was it worth it! I echo your sentiment, wish I had thought of it. But it's never too late to start, right?!
