Stork Bite


Nothing can slow us down. Our strollers fold at the push of a button, our sippy cups don't spill, we can even disinfect our hands without stopping for soap or water. At this pace, it's no wonder we sometimes forget to jot down every milestone in our little one's life. That's where baby "brag" books come in handy -- don't tune out yet, we know there are a million of them out there -- but none quite like this.

Originally published in 1904 and just re-released, Mother Stork's Baby Book 100th Anniversary Edition, is a turn-of-the-century style scrapbook to celebrate every step in your child's development. This painstakingly detailed, oversized book accentuates the record of baby's “firsts” from birth specifics to photographs, playmates and even early writing samples. Interspersed throughout are classic poems by Lewis Carroll, Robert Lewis Stevenson, and Eugene Field, and drawings by Albertine Randall Wheelan, one of the country's first female illustrators.

This new edition features updated content for today's parents, is made with archival-quality materials, printed on custom-made, acid-free paper, and bound in the most lasting technique now available. To ensure the preservation of the irreplaceable contents, acid-free photo corners and a black gel pen with ink are also included. It all comes in its own custom storage box to make a beautiful gift that will endure for curious grandkids of the future.

No washer-dryers, no Pampers -- we're not convinced the early years of the 20th century really were simpler times. But, when it comes to celebrating a baby's development, there's something to be said for taking the time and doing things the old-fashioned way.
