We are coming up on my daughters first Christmas and first New Years, and then her 1st Birthday :)
For every occasion so far, I tried to spell out the occasion in blocks and also in her floor tiles for a few pictures. For example
- Baptism
- 4th of July
- 10 Months
- etc
With the blocks, I have 2 of each vowel, but only 1 of each consonants. However with the tiles I only have 1 of every letter. Any suggestions for how I could write out Christmas or New Years sayings where each letter is repeated only once?
For Christmas so far I have "Xmas". Well that works, but it's kind of boring! For her first birthday all I can think of is "1 Year" or "1st Year". I have no ideas for New Years. Any ideas?

For New Years, could you use "Its a new year"? You said you have 2 of every vowel so that would be 2xA and 2xE but the rest of the letters just once. I was thinking even "1st day of 2012" or "Jan 1" or "Day one 2012" - but I wasn't sure what you have in numbers. For Christmas, there would also be "Dec 25th" in addition to "Xmas"... or you could expand it and use "Xmas Joy" or "I Love Xmas" which might be cute in pictures. Very cute idea, by the way!

Thanks, for the blocks I do have 2 of each vowel, but for the Floor Tile I only have 1 of each. I was thinking of maybe saying "NYE" and keeping it simple :) Thanks for the ideas! Xmas was quite boring but Xmas Joy or I Love Xmas sounds cute!

You're very welcome! Do you keep photo albums or scrapbook or something of that nature? It sounds like you put effort into the photos and that's so cool!
