Update: This giveaway has ended. Congratulations to Elisa T, who entered via Twitter!
If you are anything like me, you would probably agree that most baby books out on the market are crap. They are usually pretty cheesy and most do not have anything extra special about them.
This is the primary reason I was thinking about forgoing the baby book route when I was pregnant with Claire. (That, and the fact that I’m a complete idiot when it comes to scrapbooking.) And then I read about L’album des trésors de bébé on my friend Kelly’s blog…
The book is incredibly cute, with gorgeous (gender-neutral) colors and patterns used throughout its pages without being tacky. The graphics are adorable and unobtrusive, and even the quality of the thick paper is superb.
One of the best parts about this book is that it comes packaged in a box that has slide-out drawers along its side — perfect for storing the scrapbooking supplies used for the book!
The only “con” that I could see with this book is that it is entirely in French. But in these days of Google Translate, that should not pose much of a problem for any determined user. Heck, I actually consider the book being in French one of its charms!
Now, because it is a dreary Monday in January…
And to celebrate my move to a new web host…
I will be giving away a copy of L’album des trésors de bébé
to one lucky reader!

I think it being in French adds to the charm.
This would be perfect for our little baby girl who is supposed to come any day now! =D Awesome giveaway, Jenny.
beautiful! you have the best giveaways — thank you always!
How perfect! My baby was born 11/11/11 and we gave her a French name.
Such a beautiful book! It is a perfect solution for the scrapbooking impaired like me! Wonderful giveaway!
What an absolutely gorgeous book! I would love to win it 🙂
This is super adorable! I have been learning French for the last few years and I would just love to win this.
This book is totally adorable! I have one baby book for DS1, but like you said, it’s just too cliched and there’s nothing really special about it. However, this would be the perfect solution. Thanks for the cool giveaway!
So cute! I have a petit 5 month old lil guy and I spent a year living in Frnace. My French is a bit rusty, but this book could help me refresh and teach Alex a few words too. Merci!
awesome giveaway! Thanks. The book is really cute. I too like the fact that it’s in French. I mean, it’s not like you’re going to have to read a novel or something.
Aww, what a great giveaway! I’m having a baby girl in a month and a half and would love to get this for her!
Love this sweet little book! I am having a baby girl in March and would love to capture all her “firsts” with a book like this. Keeping my fingers crossed 🙂
that is gorgeous! I’m currently expecting & would love a chance to win. thank you for the opportunity
Wonderful keepsake I’d love to win it for my daughter.
my baby is almost 3mos old and we already have a book for him…but i definitely want another one! (another baby and a book!)
I’m going to have a baby sister due 3/13/12… though I tell my mom that if she’s born 3/14, it’d be Pi Day and infinitely cooler. I don’t really know what to get her, but this is an absolutely lovely idea ^^
i would selfishly keep this for a future baby of my own! too cute.
I would love this! I’d totally keep it even though I’m not pregnant.
This is adorable. My husband is French & our baby is being raised to be bilingual!
Ahh! Is it terrible that I would hoard this for myself? And possibly expedite child creation out of excitement for it?!?! ; )
Tres adorable!!!
I love this! Thanks for sharing, Maya!
Ahh, how cute! I’m almost tempted to buy one to stash away for the future, it’s that adorable.
These are adorable. So much better than traditional baby books!
Well my father-in-law, who is desperate for grandkids just asked my husband if he paid off our house if we would give him grandbabies (and I’m honestly not sure if he’s joking or serious), but I’m guessing that one of my friends will get to enjoy this before I make babies.
oh so cute! I studied french in high school. No kids for me yet, but how fun would it be to teach those french words to a little one?
I would love to win! Thanks for the great giveaway!
Looks so adorable
I’m expecting my first baby in June. This would be perfect.
This would make a perfect baby shower gift for my sister!
so cute!
