I purposely don't put exact dates on most pages, only month and year. The reality is, no one later is going to care whether we went to the pumpkin patch on Oct. 25th or 15th. Having only month and year allows me a lot more flexibility when I'm organizing the pages into photobooks. If I had exact dates, it would bother me not to have them in exact chronological order, LOL! This lets me move single pages after 2-pagers even if the single page happened first, pair 2 single page layouts that look good together even if there are supposed to be a few pages in between them, etc. For things where the exact day does matter, like a birthday, I include it. I also include it on Project Life pages. When I'm pulling my photobook together, I add a number before each layout so that they sort in the order I want them to appear in the book.
