Deb, sounds like you have huge plans for your album, good luck in keeping up I am soooooo behind in mine. I can't ever see me catching up as such. Theres no reason why those pics on the front of the album can't be Gab, Just take some and replace, or do what I did for my gf (her bub has passed so no new pics) anyway she wanted to do a layout of her hands and feet so I went through the pics that she did have scanned them in and zoomed and cropped out her little bits like hands, feet, ears, eyes and mouth.

I have a very similar album for myself, it has 1 window on the front with a picture of a flower. Tehya's ablum cost me a fortune ($70)but it is gorgeous.
