sophie's big day

This weekend was the annual baby contest for the Provo freedom festival and since I have the cutest kid ever i had to enter her! I thought they were just going to take pictures, but it was like a personality contest. The babies got a few minutes to show off their stuff in front of the judges that scored them in 5 areas like "special skills", "reaction to judges" and "facial structure". Well my little super star diva decided to go into a coma right when we got there! Brad and i spent 30 minutes trying to wake her up doing everything from changing her diaper to rubbing her with a cold wet wipe, but it was to no avail. So not wanting to teach her to be a quitter we went before the judges and she showed her skills of sleeping! She awoke for the briefest of moments to show off her screaming skills, but other than that nada! Oh well, I guess we won't be riding on the float in the 4th of July parade, we'll just have to sit on the sidelines with all the ugly babies! I think this was her way of telling me she doesn't want to be a beauty queen, a fact I fully support!

Ash you look so great. I think Sophie should have won just by pure cuteness. She is sure a beautiful baby and even if she just slept I would still have voted for her

She is so cute. I hope that you had fun at the contest. Sorry that I could not chat more. It was a really busy day trying to get everything organized. In my opinion she should have won no matter what.
