At the urging of Aunt Parmy and some other friends I entered Sarah in the 2007 Baby Gap Casting Call. I got an email today saying that out of 350,000 children, SARAH IS A SEMI-FINALIST! After I take care of some legal mumbo jumbo her photo along with 9 other girls and 10 other boys will be posted on the contest website. The public will be invited to vote for the entire month of December and then the grand prize winner (boy and girl) will be named. Here is the link but, trust me, I'll be posting it many, many more times. In fact, by the end of December you'll be avoiding my blog so you won't have to read "did you vote today?" for the umpteenth time!
Thank you for celebrating with us!
Here are versions of the pics that were entered...
eta: Parmy, you are one amazing mathematician! Thanks for boosting my confidence by computing the odds! Also, I got a call this morning and found out which picture they chose...it's #2 just in case you were wondering. Thanks for being excited everyone!
