Another baby contest, another medal...

We didn't have our hopes high going to the award ceremony after Lincoln's less than stellar performance due to his being scared of the judge. I can't blame him, she was a little scary. Lincoln wouldn't even smile! Which is so unlike him. After we walked away from the judging table a photographer came up and started snapping pictures of Lincoln. She told us how cute he was, asked for his name tag and walked away. We didn't think much of it.
Lincoln was not a big fan of the judges, but he did love the play room. Who would have thought that foam peanuts could be so entertaining. We sat back and watched Lincoln make a mess, knowing we didn't have to clean it up.

So on to the reward ceremony, they listed off the winners and it wasn't a shocker that Lincoln wasn't on the list. Then the lady who we thought was a photographer stood up. She was actually the chairman and awarded Lincoln with an honorable mention medal.  It's not first place but we are still proud parents! (and still think he's the cutest baby in the world.)

Go Lincoln!
