The Cutest Baby In the World!

on

As you know our baby turned one.  To celebrate her newfound maturity we decided to enter her in a contest.  Before you go thinking that I've become a stage mom from "Toddlers & Tiaras", I'm just talking about a simple Facebook contest.  No makeup or baby heels involved!


The contest ends on the 19th and we really need your help to win.  All you have to do is vote for her. Voting is terribly easy too.  Go to the PINXAV page on Facebook, look for the photo of my baby in her pink and pearls (see the photo below) and click "like".  I have included the link to the page below for your convenience (you should be able to click on it and go directly to the photo). 


If you vote, let me know by commenting on this blog post.  There's a prize for the 100th and 150th person who likes her photo. TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

I never thought I'd use this blog for shameless plugs.  Look what motherhood has done to me!
