The pageant...

Back in September, we entered Luke into a pageant on Long Island. Although Luke didn't win, he did place and won a trophy. Here is a pic from Septembers competition:


So because he placed, his entry fees were paid in full for the national competition in CT. So Nana, Luke and I headed up one saturday at the beginning of April to the Internation Prince and Princess pageant. It was a stressful and long day and I may have snapped one or two times at Nana but in the end, it was fun and Luke hammed it up on the stage/runway. He won 1st place for his Tiny Baby Boy division (3 mos - 17 mos) and also won Best Dressed and placed runner up for Best Model. We just got the pictures back from the photographer that was there so once I scan them in, I'll post them on here. Here are a few that we snapped from the day.

Luke passed out on the lobby couch after fighting a nap the whole day! he even bit me once!


With his 1st place trophy




And just so everyone knows, he did not win any money. :-( These competitions are more for parents who want to break their kids into modeling/acting. It was a fun time but I don't think that we will do it again...well, maybe...
