This is one of the cutest contests I have seen in a long time! Each month, Hope Cottage Pregnancy and Adoption Center hosts a baby photo contest on their Facebook page and the winner of the contest gets a prize. Based on the picture submission I just saw for July, there is some stiff competition out there! Moms, you already take lots and lots of pictures of your babies in their adorable patriotic clothing, why not post the cutest picture on Facebook for a prize? Boy would I have loved to win the “I am an adorable baby” prize back in the day. Here is the link to the Hope Cottage Facebook Page

The rules are too easy: all you have to do is post a photo of your baby/child (subject in the picture must be age 3 or under), on the Hope Cottage Pregnancy and Adoption Center Facebook page. This month’s theme is Patriotism but the theme changes every month. Post your baby’s picture following that month’s theme by 5 pm on the 10^th of the month.  Here are the themes for the upcoming months: (just so you can plan ahead when you’re shopping!)

July (post by 7/10)         Most Patriotic Baby

August                          Most Summer Lovin’ Baby (baby having the most fun at a summer activity)

September                    Baby I’m Gonna Be….   Baby dressed as what they are going to be when they grow up

October                        Lil Punkin                      babies dressed up as pumpkins

November                     Lil Turkeys                    babies epitomizing the Thanksgiving season

December                     Santa Baby –                 babies dressed with a Santa Theme

You don’t have to be adopted from Hope Cottage to participate and, remember, the event is FREE!  Just post the photos on our Facebook page.  Your baby can be all grown up – they just have to be age 3 or under in the picture submitted.  If anyone has any questions, please contact Leslie Clay.
