Baby Monthly Milestone Board

Watch Your Baby Grow Each Month 
with Baby Milestone Trackers

Tessa is 2-Months Old Today

We wanted to see how much our baby would grow from month to month, so we bought these adorable, "Baby is _Months Old Today," signs from an artist off of Etsy.com when my daughter was born.  You can also get Baby Monthly Stickers from Amazon.com if you don't like the board idea.  These monthly age baby boards  are preciously priceless, especially when you reflect back at the quick changes your little one made over that first year.

Great Baby Gift


These signs also make an excellent baby shower gift (especially if the parents know the gender and have already decided on the baby's name)!  There are a few different artists who make these signs on Etsy.com.  Honestly, if you spent an afternoon at Hobby Lobby, you could easily make your own.  


We didn't get the sign as a gift - we bought it ourselves off of Etsy (for about $25) after my sister suggested a similar concept to us - one where the baby wears a onesie that states their age in months, but you have to iron on the monthly image (or else gamble that the onesie that an artist provides will fit your baby).   I didn't want to deal with that, and I certainly didn't feel like (or have the mental energy) for ironing on anything on a monthly basis (I would prefer to use that time for a bubble bath and a glass of wine).  We were very happy when we stumbled upon these signs on Etsy because they are simple and easy to use - as the the monthly number is a just a velcro piece that is easily removed.

Sentimental Value:  


I highly recommend doing something like this for your newborn.  I had no idea how much my little girl had changed over the past year until I compared her monthly photos. Pulls my heartstrings.  It's a great addition to the baby book.

Tip: My friend does this exact same thing for her son, except she makes sure that he sits in the same chair (their glider in his bedroom) for each photo.  I think that's a cute idea because you can see how his size changes relative to a fixed object each month!  I attempted to do this and made my designated place her crib while she lay in her newborn lounger, but she got a lot more wiggly as the months went on, and this became less and less practical.
