Speaking of a CuteKid, I’m sure our MySpace friends would like to know who the Sleepy Kids winner is!

He Must have been Really Sleepy!

So like a good Social Mama, I was watching the Grammy’s last night. Little did I know, one of our very own CuteKids (Beth) was at the Grammy’s because she was in a music video for an up and comming artist! Out of 300 pitches, the video she was in was one of 5 winners that aired at the Grammy’s. Way to go Beth!

Before appearing on the Grammy’s, Beth and her twin sister Brooke were our April 2008 Multiples Winners! CuteKids have been going all sorts of great places lately! See our other recent CuteKids who have made waves, Kellen, Kiannah and Jared.

The music video was for the Filmaka Lincoln Mercury competition called Project Rising Stars done especially for the Grammy’s. Beth was featured in the music video for Olivia Broadfield’s song ‘Indescribable.’ In addition to being aired on the Grammy’s, a 30 second condensed version of each video is used for a Lincoln Mercury national SAG TV commercial. How cool!

You can also vote for Beth’s video that appeared on the Grammy’s. The concept of the video is very cute, and I’m not even saying that because one of our kids was in it! It might make you a little nostalgic!

They also have a page up for each of the winning videos that were featured during the Grammy’s.

This weekend as part of Kaley’s prize package, she and her parents made their way to NY for a fun-filled weekend and her photo shoot with Carter’s(r) Footwear! Let me tell you, what a doll!

Even with skipping her nap, she was a total natural in front of the camera, sporting the latest in Carter’s(r) Footwear. They were even nice enough to let her keep the shoes! She’s going to be one stylin’ little girl come spring time.

We had a little impromptu interview with Kaley and her ‘rents and found out they did all sorts of cool stuff like go to the Central Park Zoo, rode in a horse drawn carriage and Kaley even saw her first snow! And in case you were wondering, yes, this girly girl’s favorite color is pink!

We got some great “foot”age of the shoot to share on her site a little later so be sure to check out her CuteKid of the Year site for more info!

Just got some very exciting news for our 2008 CuteKid of the Year winner, Kaley. We just finalized our plans to have her visit New York next week for her photo shoot with Carter’s Footwear, makers of some really great baby and kid shoes!

As “The Face of Carter’s Footwear” for 2009, she will be appearing in all sorts of ads sporting the latest in kids shoes. With such a cutie modeling for Carter’s Footwear, it’ll be hard to keep the shoes on the shelves!

It’s been a little hectic around here (and for her as well!) since the announcement. But we are so excited to meet her and her family and get some great shots of her for Carter’s.

She’s become quite the little celebrity in her town since her big win, appearing in local newspapers and other media. The local exterminator even called her mom to say congratulations!

Be sure to keep up with her adventures at her website, www.cutekidoftheyear.com as we’re sure this cutie will have more great experiences for years to come!
