It's part one of my 2011 book I want to order. It goes from January - April. There are 10 pages that I either haven't got done yet, or I just am not 100% happy with the pages of those events that I have. I'm a little unsure about the amount of attention on each child though. When it's done Bella will be in 14 pages, Zach in 9, and Ryan in 6. I feel like maybe I should do more of Ryan, but there will be more in the next. Ryan just hasn't had as many events in those months. Do you think it's OK that he's in so few less than the other 2? Would you make all kids equally in there?
 
I am a chronological scrapper and so I am always just following everyday events and sometimes I feel bad that one child has more pages than the other but for the most part I really don't pay much attention to who has what. For me, right now anyway, my youngest daughter is really the only one who will let me take her picture so she is the focus of most of the layouts I do. My oldest daughter just gets so mad at me if I try taking her picture. Every now and then she will be a happy participant, and I take full advantage of those wonderful times, but I have had the camera shoved in her face since she came into the world and she has just had enough right now. My son doesn't get as mad as her but he is just to busy in his adventures for pictures. I try capturing them in their activities but for now it is what it is, the little one likes the camera and I like snapping so that how it unfolds. When they get older and ask if I loved her more then I will just remind them of all the pictures I have of them hiding their face or giving me those crazy faces or all the whining to, "please stop taking my picture" that they did.

I actually do 1 book for each of my boys and then I do a "family" book that has more general stuff. That way I don't have to worry about which kid is in more pages... their pages go in their books and are all about them. :)
