s/o Baby Books
Where did all you moms get your books? I saw someone mention Etsy and Borders....but what ones did you like?
Bonus points for links. 
Re: s/o Baby Books
We got ours from this Etsy seller..... I love it!!!! (Even though I am terrible at remembering to write in it)

BRU. It's nice, but kind of basic. I'm a scrapbooker though, so I didn't need anything too detailed because in addition to the baby book I am making a scrapbook for Gabe.

I got ours off Amazon (which I am totally addicted to now). I really love it and it goes with our owl theme.
I ordered mine from Etsy seller 2giggles: http://www.etsy.com/shop/2giggles
I don't see the one I bought posted anymore, but I did recently buy a smaller 3 ring one for my friend as a shower hostess thank you.
I really love the prompts on the pages and the ability to take out/add pages since it is a 3 ring. She also creates a custom name plate for the cover once you know the name which I thought was a nice touch.

I was looking at this seller too! I loved her style!!
We bought this before Brendan was born because we didn't know if we were having a boy or girl.

I HIGHLY recommend this calendar though, It was so nice to keep track of things on this instead of pieces of paper or even the baby book.

I am very much in love with the book I bought for Ellie. It has a ton of questions to fill in, places to post specific pictures, thoughts & hopes for your baby. Also pages to track height, weight & a ton of "firsts".

I got this one from BRU but couldnt find it on the website, so I googled it.

We have one of the CRGibson ones from BRU too. It goes up to the first five years. I'm happy to say I've kept up with it, hope I can do the same for baby2.
Mommy's little helper
we got this one
we were team green so it is gender neutral. and i didn't think to buy one until about 3 days before i had M so i just grabbed the first one i could find.
one tip i got somewhere and i'm glad i did it - i brought the book to the hospital with me and they did an extra set of her footprints in the book for us. we also had everyone that came to see her in the hospital sign the book yearbook style.

We have this one. I love it. The link says internet only but we actually got ours at the Pottery Barn Outlet in Birch Run. It has a envelope style pocket in the back that I used to put her hospital bracelet in and the front page of the paper from the day she was born.
