My little Sincess

I know, I know, you've already seen these pictures, BUT Shabby Apple is having a Picture Princess Contest, and who better to win than my little Sincess!?!



Kennedy would make the perfect Shabby Apple Sincess... (uh... I mean PRincess). She has style, she has attitude, and I'm pretty sure she already thinks she's royalty! On top of that, how great would it be to let the world see that girls with Down syndrome can be princesses, too!



I think Kennedy would look adorable in this China Doll Dress, don't you? This Sonny & Cher Dress is adorable as well!



If Kennedy wins she gets to be the next Shabby Apple Model! She will receive the entire Shabby Baby Spring Wardrobe and will be used in the Summer 2009 Photo Shoot. She will also be featured on the Shabby Baby Website and all promotional materials!

If you decide to enter YOUR little Princess, be sure to let me know so I can check out the pictures! :)

She is the MOST gorgeous girl!

Sincess needs to win.

Lana said...

Wow! The second picture is AMAZING!! She looks like...well, royalty!

Melissa said...

Oh Renee!! I so hope she wins! You are right, it would be awesome for the world to see that a beautiful girl who just happens to have DS can be a princess. Just imagining what that would say to the world gives me chills.

I'm praying for the Sincess to win, cause I went to the site and didn't see anyway to vote. :)

Chrystal said...

Those dresses are so cute! I would love to see Playette in them. BUT, I would be so happy if YOUR Sincess won and wouldn't want to have to compete (cause you know they'd be the final 2). Oh, decisions, decisions. ;-)

God's Rock Angel said...

She's already our princess sorry! Our sincess but how do we vote for her to prove to everyone else?

Lisa Turner said...

Sincess Kennedy.....We hope you win! You are a Sincess to all of us! You picked some beautiful pictures.....I don't know how you couldn't win?

By the way, did your red lips go away? Which remedy did you try?

Jennifer said...

Rachel said...

I don't think I've seen any other little girl in the world (besides my own, of course) that is any prettier!!!!

She'll Win For Sure!

Amber said...

So we entered...Good Luck to Kennedy. I think i'm going to order her favorite dress regardless.

I recieved this poem and thought of your family...so I thought I'd share it.

Christmas Poem

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS,
HE LIVED ALL ALONE,
IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE MADE OF
PLASTER AND STONE .

I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY
WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE,
AND TO SEE JUST WHO
IN THIS HOME DID LIVE .

I LOOKED ALL ABOUT,
A STRANGE SIGHT I DID SEE,
NO TINSEL, NO PRESENTS,
NOT EVEN A TREE .

NO STOCKING BY MANTLE,
JUST BOOTS FILLED WITH SAND,
ON THE WALL HUNG PICTURES
OF FAR DISTANT LANDS .

WITH MEDALS AND BADGES,
AWARDS OF ALL KINDS,
A SOBER THOUGHT
CAME THROUGH MY MIND .
FOR THIS HOUSE WAS DIFFERENT,
IT WAS DARK AND DREARY,
I FOUND THE HOME OF A SOLDIER,
ONCE I COULD SEE CLEARLY .

THE SOLDIER LAY SLEEPING,
SILENT, ALONE,
CURLED UP ON THE FLOOR
IN THIS ONE BEDROOM HOME .

THE FACE WAS SO GENTLE,
THE ROOM IN SUCH DISORDER,
NOT HOW I PICTURED
A UNITED STATES SOLDIER .

WAS THIS THE HERO
OF WHOM I'D JUST READ?
CURLED UP ON A PONCHO,
THE FLOOR FOR A BED?

I REALIZED THE FAMILIES
THAT I SAW THIS NIGHT,
OWED THEIR LIVES TO THESE SOLDIERS
WHO WERE WILLING TO FIGHT .

SOON ROUND THE WORLD,
THE CHILDREN WOULD PLAY,
AND GROWNUPS WOULD CELEBRATE
A BRIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY .

THEY ALL ENJOYED FREEDOM
EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR,
BECAUSE OF THE SOLDIERS,
LIKE THE ONE LYING HERE .

I COULDN'T HELP WONDER
HOW MANY LAY ALONE,
ON A COLD CHRISTMAS EVE
IN A LAND FAR FROM HOME .

THE VERY THOUGHT
BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE,
I DROPPED TO MY KNEES
AND STARTED TO CRY .

THE SOLDIER AWAKENED
AND I HEARD A ROUGH VOICE,
'SANTA DON'T CRY,
THIS LIFE IS MY CHOICE;

I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM,
I DON'T ASK FOR MORE,
MY LIFE IS MY GOD,
MY! COUNTRY, MY CORPS .

THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER
AND DRIFTED TO SLEEP,
I COULDN'T CONTROL IT,
I CONTINUED TO WEEP.

I KEPT WATCH FOR HOURS,
SO SILENT AND STILL
AND WE BOTH SHIVERED
FROM THE COLD NIGHT'S CHILL.

I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE
ON THAT COLD, DARK, NIGHT,
THIS GUARDIAN OF HONOR
SO WILLING TO FIGHT.

THEN THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER,
WITH A VOICE SOFT AND PURE,
WHISPERED, 'CARRY ON SANTA,
IT'S CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL IS SECURE.

ONE LOOK AT MY WATCH,
AND I KNEW HE WAS RIGHT .
'MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND,
AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT .

This poem was written by a Marine.

Bless your husband and family this holiday season. We are grateful to those fighting for our freedom.

Oh my gosh, your little princess is absolutely beautiful!! It's a good thing her and my Carsten aren't the same age, I'd be a little worried:)!

Merry Christmas,
Kari

Amy said...

If they don't pick her, they're just crazy!!!

It would be great to see kids with DS in the commercial media. People's minds are shaped around what they see, and seeing a child with DS modeling "cool", "in" clothes would help get the image that kids with DS are any less "normal" or "cool" out of their heads. Plus she's just so darn adorable!!!
