Doorway Growth Chart

When your baby is born, take a ruler and mark her height in inches on the doorway of her room, and do this every year on her birthday. You won’t believe how much she grows in 12 months! For more ways to track your child’s growth, click here.

Handprint Ornaments

These sweet keepsakes will be treasured for years to come! Make one each December!

  • Buy clay from your local craft department.
  • Roll it out to about ½ inch thick.
  • Press your baby’s hand into the clay to make a good print, and then cut a circle around the handprint.
  • Poke a hole in the top with a straw for hanging with a ribbon, and bake to harden.
  • Alternatively, you can use salt dough instead of clay.
