Excerpt from blog post: "Cutest Baby Contest 2011"

It was a cold and blustery February morning in New Orleans when we met with Baby Hope and her family for the official Cutest Baby 2011 photo shoot, but it definitely was not destined to stay that way. Though the weather may have been chilly, the reception was warm and Hope was in for as much excitement as we could find for her.

Stay tuned for the Cutest Baby Contest 2012 which we will launch at the end of the summer...
