On Amazon or Tapestry books (a site for all adoption books) there is a book called "A Birthparent's Book of Memories". We bought one for our son's birthmother and she loves it. It is like a scrapbook, with room for pictures and all the things you mentioned, as well as additional info that the birthmother might want to add. It's set up as something for her to work on and give to the child later (it has a lot of pages and info ideas). It somewhat prompts the birthmother with questions like "What it felt like when I was pregnant", "About my Mother", "About my Father", etc. It is nice for the birthmother to be able to share all the information (and she can just omit a page if she doesn't want to answer something) and a great gift for the child.
