Winner Winner Chicken Dinner :)

This past Friday night Cadence competed in the DeKalb County Fair Toddler Pageant. There were 11 little girls total, and Cadence was the smallest of them BY FAR. She went out on stage and waved and blew kisses like a pro - she waved and said "Hi" to the judges and then walked over to our spot and blew kisses at her fans. These fans included: Nana, Grandma, Pa, Mumsie, Pop-Pop, Granny, Aunt Sommer, Uncle Eric, Uncle Bob, Aunt Carolyn, Uncle Dave, Aunt Monica, Dr. Duke, and Sarah Clark (and Momma and Daddy of course). I had made up my mind that I wouldn't be disappointed if she didn't place this time because there were so many little ones in her category and the judges can only pick top 2, but I must say, while they were tabulating scores I kept thinking "my baby girl did SO good, surely she'll place" and....... she did! She won 1st place!!!! I was so excited I thought I was going to start crying right there on stage! Here are just a couple of pics - I'll have more when I pick up my CD from the photographer and get Aunt Sommer's memory card :). Some of them are blurry, and in one of them Cadence and I are squinting pretty hard, but you can still tell that we were both excited about the win. (on a side note: I did have more spotting on Saturday night, but I'm waiting for my appt on Wednesday to go in to the doc - I'll post on that subject after the appt) And by the way, the name of this post is Winner Winner Chicken Dinner because Cadence's Aunt Sommer kept telling her that after she won - I don't really know what it means, but it's cute!
