I love to WIN! It aint to hard being this CUTE!!

Having nerds for parents especially my mother it has been an interesting life so far. During my short time in this world my parents have entered me into two costume contests. Both of which I won with pretty stiff competition. Na, I have to say that! I won in a land slide. The first contest was at a Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows book release party. I was only six months old and with a great desire to do something creative my mother dressed me as a Mandrake. Ya I am going to love this picture when I am 16. The grand prize was a gift card that my parents turned around and used on the book. Ya I felt used. It wasn't even something that I could enjoy.


Lucky for them I have a good sense of humor and took it all in stride. They were dressed up too but compared to me no one even noticed. The second contest was much more recent, a costume contest at a college soccer match. You were supposed to dress up as a lumberjack or something like that. This time I was the only one out of the three of us that got dressed up, which I didn't think was very fair. And to top it all off there was this big puppet man there with a giant axe, that kept wanting to get close to me. Ya right! I am not as young as I look. Hello, STRANGER!!! So he didn't make me feel very comfortable. I did my best but in the end I was pretty upset. I started to feel better when the whole crowd of onlookers voted me the best lumberjack of them all but do they really need to be that loud. I mean, I know I am cute but really. What can you expect from a bunch of college students. GOT TO LOVE THEM ANYWAY!

Oh, ya I won two tickets to the Grand Canyon Railway. Probably wont' be able to use them either, what ever they are. So enjoy parents! And stay tooned for the next silly thing they or shall I say my Mother dresses me up as.

Oh, on a side note a week after this event my parents took me down town. I happened to have my last binky with me and some where along the way it fell out of the stroller. So from that point on I have been binkyless. life is so tough. Good thing I still have my milk!
