Battle of the Babies

The first week of Battle of the Babies has ended. The way it works is that there will be three weeks of the contest. Each week will have a winner and those three winners will compete in the finals.

Week 1 is finished and Christina did not win. Here is the winner:

I don't want to be mean, but can I just say WHAT!!??? Do you think that baby is even cute???

Since there were something like 6,000 babies entered into Week 1, it became more of a popularity contest rather than a search for the most beautiful baby. You really have to rally your friends and family together to vote, otherwise you don't have a chance. This baby must have a lot of friends and family!

The good news is that if you can manage to win one of the Weeks, then winning the overall contest should be a piece of cake if you have a beautiful baby. At that point, it is just down to three babies and logically, the most beautiful baby would get the most votes. At least, that is what I would think.

So, Christina is now entered into Week 2. This time, I submitted this photo:


Voting will start Friday, May 8th at 8am and end Monday, May 18th at 12am. Please help me get Christina into the finals! She can take the Week 1 winner easily!

Right now the Week 2 contestants can be viewed here. For now, Christina is listed under "C", on the second line, fourth picture in. But, I'm not sure if that will change once voting starts. I will try to post on Friday to remind everyone to vote. Thanks again!!

Mister Telephone Man = Nik

Have you heard the song that Britney Spears wrote for Nik? Here are some of the lyrics for Phonography:

And I make no apologies
I'm into phonography
And I like my bluetooth, buttons comin' loose
I need my hands free
Then I let my mind roam
Playin' with my ringtone
He's got service, I've got service
Baby, we can talk all night

Let's talk about biology
Make believe you're next to me
Phonography, phonography
Talk that sexy talk to me
Better make sure that the line is free
Keep it confidential, you and me
Phonography, phonography
Dirty talk and call it phonography

I can follow
All your commands
But there will be no talk of
Adding you to my plan
I'll keep you connected
Long as you understand
That's how we should keep it
Mr. Telephone Man

What a week

This week, Christina:

Fell asleep on her own for the night twice

Watched Aladdin with Daddy and in his words, looked at him with so much joy in her eyes as if to say "Why have I been watching Baby Einstein all this time, when I could be watching Aladdin!"

Waved hello to Mommy

Finished the last of her stage 1 foods, and will start stage 2 tomorrow

Stole another baby's food at daycare. She grabbed the snack and put it right in her mouth (first time she fed herself!)

Took a nap at daycare every day

Was completely healthy, not a sneeze, runny nose, cough or wheeze in sight (let's hope it stays that way!)

Stepped up her mobility another notch. Even though she still can't crawl forward, she really knows how to get around!

Stole another baby's sippy cup to play with (let's hope this stealing thing is just a phase, lol)

Turned 8 months old

Reminded Mommy and Daddy that she is the cutest, sweetest baby in all the world (as if we forgot, ha!)
