Emily's Scrapbook

(Scrapbook requires the Quicktime plugin)

A few days after my surprise birthday party, Mommy and Daddy told me our family would have another surprise, a new baby. With my parent's help, I made a colorful scrapbook describing what happened while we waited for the baby to arrive. Click the picture to see my scrapbook.
