THANK YOU TO everyone who entered and voted in our Cutest Baby on the Peninsula contest.

The babies and toddlers from across the North Olympic Peninsula — entered by proud parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends of the family — were all adorable, making the decision tough for our online voters who cast votes for little ones in two age categories.

There were 147 cute cuddle bugs entered, and we wish we had prizes for every one!
