Great tips for sharing baby's big milestones

(ARA) - Taking care of a new baby is an exhausting and overwhelming responsibility and leaves little time to stay in touch with friends and family.

Don't worry; Shutterfly.com has some great photo ideas to help you out.

Free photo share site
Friends and relatives can't get enough of your new baby so give them what they want - a Web site featuring your baby's pictures.

Let friends and family share the joy of your baby's first year. More than a place to show pictures, Shutterfly Share sites have a number of great features. You can create a journal to remember milestones, add links to a registry for baby gifts, and include videos and much more. Invite those closest to you to be Site members - they'll automatically get notified about new pictures and changes to your family site. Sharing baby photos has never been easier.

Gorgeous baby cards and stationery
Choosing and creating a birth announcement is easy when you have time and a clear head - two things that sometimes elude a new mother. But, if you're not going to find out if you're having a boy or girl or if you want to meet your baby before committing to a particular design, then you should at least narrow down the choices.

Shutterfly.com has a Baby Card Finder tool that can help. Just enter your baby's name and Shutterfly.com will show you designs that suit your name choices. Whatever baby occasion you're celebrating Shutterfly.com has the perfect card for you including personalized birth announcements, baptism and christening invitations, birthday invitations and thank you cards.

Baby photo books
Capture baby memories in a treasured keepsake that's perfect for sharing with loved ones. Yours will be an original creation - just like baby. In these times of hyper-documentation, parents often end up with thousands of digital images, most of which remain on their computer. Turn your everyday baby photos into a collection you can showcase in a baby photo book.

Here's an idea: Babies are like a blank canvas - so full of possibility and potential. And parents daydream about the wonderful things their little ones will accomplish when they grow up. Look through your baby photo collection and examine the funny poses and postures you've captured. Is your baby holding a cell phone? Maybe she'll be a trader on the stock market. Is baby banging pots and pans? Maybe he'll be a chef. Or a rock star. The sky is the limit. Pull those photos together to create a "When I Grow Up" photo book.

Photo books from Shutterly.com start at just $12.99 and are just what the grandparents have been asking for - more photos.
