Been racking my brains trying to figure out what to give my DD's in-laws for Christmas (they're the "have-everything-don't-need-anything-if-I-want-it-I'll-buy-it type) and I think I FINALLY came up with something..

Ever since my (our) granddaughter has been able to pick anything up with her hands she has had this fascination with putting things on her head: hats; shoes; buckets; socks; dishes; bags; you name it..

Well - I was sorting through all of the photos I have of her earlier today and there are probably close to 100 photos of her with "something" on her head.. They're really hysterical to look at so I thought maybe I would make a scrapbook of those photo's for the in-laws because I know they have never seen the majority of them and I'm sure they'd get a good laugh while going through the book..

So - what do I title the book? What kind of captions could I include? How about some silly "made-up" stories to go with each photo?

Any suggestions? You're all so clever - I'm sure you can come up with SOMETHING.. :)
 
Some suggestions for titles:
How to get ahead in the world.
The importance of using your head.
Another Graduate of a Headstart program.
Something on her mind?
 
Cool! Keep the ideas coming..

I think this is going to be a LOT of fun..

Back when my DD's in-laws decided to retire I cut a bunch of pictures out of a magazine - glued them on card stock paper - wrote funny captions for each that somehow pertained directly to them - and then placed them in a three-ring folder.. It was the hit of the party and they still talk about it to this day so I'm hoping this scrapbook will go over well too.. ;)

I wish I could see the pictures to help with captions.....I'll keep thinking. :)
 

You know, just off the top of my head...;)

Safety First (if there is a pic of her with any sort of helmet/hard hat)

Where there's smoke, there's fire (if there are any of her with a firehat)

I'll keep thinking. This is such a cool idea.
 
Debster stole one of mine - that's just like her! :mad:

Okay, how about...

And, can you give us a list of some of the things on her head - maybe we can help with some of those stories or "one-liners".

GREAT IDEA C.ANN!!!!!
 
APJ--Great One!!

Now Heidi, be nice!!! Shouldn't you be packing or something???

I thought of another one:

"Does this go with my outfit?" (for something really bizzare that she has on her head)
 
Great ideas!!!

Here's a list of some of the photos:

I'm going to start with the one taken within minutes of her being born (you know - that cap they put on them).. This will begin her "fascination" with things on her head.. The photo is of my son-in-law holding her in his arms.. (Precious)

Next is all bundled up in a yellow, hooded snowsuit..

Halloween at 2 months old..she's a pumpkin!

Next is her first Thanksgiving.. She had one of those big bibs on - with the ribbed neck - and when I went to take it off it got stuck up around her head and she looks like the Flying Nun..

Adorable outfit - with patches on the knees - matching baseball-type cap is on her sideways.. Looks like a miniture kid from Spanky and Our Gang..

Santa hat.. 3 months old

Red pakage bow - Christmas Eve (her first)..

Red hooded jacket WITH a baseball cap underneath..

Blue hat folded back in front with a HUGE daisy on it!

Crawling on the beach - hot pink baseball cap..

Big, floppy sun hat..

Velvet "Scottish" looking hat??

Huge mulitcolored bow with streamers hanging from it..

Beauty and the Beast plastic bucket..

Green St. Patrick's Derby

HUGE witches hat

Teletubbie gift bag

Snowman cookie bowl

Purple basket

Grandpa's hat with former company name on it..

Big black sock..

Huge elephant face hat..

Princess tiara..

Pink bunnie ears..

Kitty cat hood.. (face made up like a cat too)..

Burgundy hood - with a black eye!!

Baseball cap with stars - way down over her eyes..

M&M red devil bucket - on TOP of a baseball cap - on TOP of her head..
------------------------

I'm sure there's some on the film I haven't gotten developed yet too..

Keep those ideas coming!!!!!
 
Make sure you leave room for future updates!!!! It'll be the gift that keeps on giving when you add to it each year.
