Baby Charlotte Contest: The Winner

I just love hav­ing con­tests over here on the PS Blog! It’s great hear­ing from each of you and get­ting your feed­back. It was so fun read­ing all of the dif­fer­ent opin­ions and rea­sons why you chose your favorite image. I have to say a few of you had a great argu­ment for Option Two that I never thought of. Linda was the first to sug­gest it, “You can see the dress a lot more to see that it’s the same one mommy wore.” Great point!

Even though it was a great idea and a good argu­ment, the win­ning image by num­ber of votes was Option One: Best Replica. It seems the major­ity loved how sim­i­lar the two were. It is pretty neat to see the sim­i­lar­i­ties between the gen­er­a­tions. One of my favorite com­ments from the con­test was from Joanna who said, “I vote for #1 because they look so shock­ingly sim­i­lar! Go genes go!” Vitaliy and I are still crack­ing up at the thought of her cheer­ing on genes.

And since I love sav­ing the best for last. No really, I love sav­ing the best for last. You can ask Vitaliy, I have a whole rou­tine about how amaz­ing the last bite on my plate has to be. He thinks it’s absolutely ridicu­lous. I find it to be absolutely cru­cial! Back to my point — it’s time to announce the win­ner of the Star­bucks gift card.

In a ran­dom draw­ing, the win­ner is AMANDA MUELLER!!! She said, “The first pic­ture, being so close to the orig­i­nal and the sweet face. It’s great.” Thanks so much, Amanda, for com­ing to hang out with us and shar­ing your opin­ion. We loved hear­ing from you.

Thank you all again for par­tic­i­pat­ing and for shar­ing so much love with baby Char­lotte and her fam­ily. I bet they have absolutely adored read­ing all of your kind words. I look for­ward to the next con­test. Have a great weekend!
