UPDATE: I haven't participated in WFMW in quite some time because I ran out of ideas! I still enjoy reading everyone else's though. I wrote this post yesterday, and then realized this would be a great idea to pass along. After all who would be more interested in making a book of their blog than fellow moms. This idea sure works for me!
A fellow adoptive mom has started a new online business. It's called Book My Blog. She can take part or all of your blog and turn it into a book, including all your pictures. If there's a post or two in there that you don't want included, it can be left out.
It's a new business so I'm sure they'll be quite willing to work with their clients and make a great product. I know I can't wait to see it.
My plan all along was to make a book of my blog for Sera. I've used it as her baby book. I plan to print mine after April. It will cover our wait, our referral, our trip to China, and our first year home.
I had given thought to copying and pasting everything to a Word document and then taking it to a printer. It would have been incredibly tedious. I did find a website that would do it, but you have to download their software and do all the layout yourself. They just print it for you.
This site will extract from your blog. You won't have to do anything but enjoy the finished product. And the best part is that the business is owned by Ruby's mom.

Great idea! I just heard about something like this, and what a nice idea--there are so many great writers out there on the Internet! Those ideas should be shared, at least with family.
I love this idea. Thanks for sharing.
I'm going to look into doing this.
I've been looking for exactly this kind of thing! Thanks for passing it on.
I just posted about making a book of my blog entries earlier this week, though I used Blurb.com. I would really encourage anyone even thinking about it to have a book made with their blog entries -- it is just great to see it in book format!
What a great idea! I have been thinking about using Blurb.com but I'm glad to see there is another alternative out there!
