Cutest Kid Contest

There is a Cutest Kid Contest happening in the US and Canada through March 31st. I'm not usually one for putting my kids in stuff like this, but the entry was only $10 and all money raised from votes goes to a great cause- The Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation.

I entered Norah and we tried to think of something creative. The only thing I could come up with was a beach theme, but my photographer friend (huge shoot out to the wonderful Sarah Moore) offered to make Norah a model for the Tutus and Tiaras event.

The day of her photo shoot, I asked Norah "How are you going to smile?" and she said "Like this" and gave the cutest cheesiest smile ever. She did it on cue every time. Once we got to the studio and told her to smile, she bit her lip and stared at us. Wouldn't smile for anything. I didn't see a single smile on her face, but almost every picture Sarah posted had a slight smile in them. Amazing how the photographer and camera picks those up.

Anyway, right when we got in the car I said "Norah, how were you supposed to smile?" and she said "Like this" with that same huge cute smile she did all morning. I guess she does take after me a little after all in her shyness.

PS. To vote for Norah in one of her "I'm not smiling for you poses" please go to http://www.charitymodelsearch.org/ci.php/photos/showphoto/516.
