When Ryebread was born, he had cute baby cheeks, but they weren't super chubby (he compensated his lack of chubby cheeks with a substantial, yet adorable, Buddha belly).
But with Lindsey - there was no denying, from the moment she came out, she had, indeed, inherited this wonderful quality (among many others) from her dad.
We love them. I mean, who wouldn't? They're so much fun to snuggle up against, they're great for kissing and loving on and, practically speaking, Lindsey has built-in pillows in a pinch! So, it was a no brainer when Parenting.com's facebook page was calling for picture submission of kids with chubby cheeks.
Lindsey's had to be shared with the masses.
At the very least, it was fun to see Lindsey's picture on their "others" posting page. And shortly after we posted it, someone commented on how cute she was (unsolicited comments of how cute my kids are = always welcomed!). So if that was the most that came from the effort, I'd be thrilled.
Alas, we got notification that she was selected as a finalist! They wanted confirmation that we were OK with her picture being used on their page and correct spelling of her first name, last initial. The winner, they said, would appear on their facebook page starting Monday morning. How exciting!
Just the thought of Lindsey being potentially "famous" was exciting. So imagine my sheer giddiness when I logged on to Facebook this morning, went to the Parenting.com page and saw our very own Lindsey B. as their fan of the week! In commemoration of her first brush with fame, I give you the winning entry, along with a "cheeks montage" if you will.

| At three months, she was already working the camera. |

| Her first boat ride. She was probably thinking: with cheeks like these, who needs a floatation device?! |
 |
| A side view - notice how perfectly round they are!! |
