About this product
For the tiniest cowboy or cowgirl on the range, the My First Rodeo Baby Memory Book is as full of heart as it is charm. A lasso looped into a heart, peeking cacti, and western-inspired rope borders give the cover a distinctly handcrafted feel that stands apart from anything else in the baby book category.
The dusty desert tones hold up on a shelf. The hardcover carries a soft-touch laminate finish, the 48 pages are archival-quality, and the wire-o binding lays flat while you write. Every illustration is original and hand-drawn by Lucy Darling founder Haily Meyers, printed with eco-friendly soy-based inks. Most baby books get bought, opened once, and tucked away. We designed this one to actually get filled in.
What's Inside
Your baby's first year, carrying on through the fifth birthday, with spaces for 49 photos and a prompt on every page. The book closes with a personal note from Haily Meyers printed inside.
- Before You Were Born: ultrasound, due date, cravings, who you told first, and a letter to your baby before you met
- Birth story pages: date, time, weight, length, hair, eyes, delivered by, and hospital, plus the birth announcement and hospital bracelet
- Hand and footprint page, where you lived, and a when-you-were-born snapshot: the cost of a loaf of bread, the popular song, the nation's leader
- Monthly milestone spreads for months 1 through 12, each with four short prompts
- First-year milestones: first bath, first car ride, first big trip, first word, first steps, and first holidays, with a family tree illustrated to match the theme
- Birthday pages for years 1 through 5 and a First Day of School page
Western, Without the Wink
For families who lean into the cowboy aesthetic without irony. The rope borders and cacti are drawn the way a good saddle is made: with care, and meant to last. The dusty palette coordinates with leather, wood, and the warm neutrals of a western nursery, and the family tree inside is illustrated to match the cover. You don't have to catch up. You have to start.
