Adoption Baby/Memory Book?

Hey Bloggers,
Do you know where I can find a cute baby book that has spaces for adoption related events? I've looked, but I'm not finding anything I really like. I want the kind that records adoption story, "forever family tree", doctor visits, weight/height, etc. If you have advise, I'd love to hear it!
