Meet our first beautiful baby entry

Meet the first entry into The Freeport News's Beautiful Baby competition.

No sooner was yesterday's edition hot off the press when this lovely photo of 10-months-old Kylea 'London' Greene landed in our contest mailbox.

Proud parents Kisstonya and Oscar Greene reckon Kylea's in with a chance of winning ... so do we.

The Freeport News has teamed up with Kelly's to launch the biggest Beautiful Baby Photo Contest The Bahamas has ever seen.

There will be prizes galore for the winners.

The Grand Prize winner will receive:

. A $100 Kelly's gift certificate.

. Be featured in Kelly's Christmas advertising campaign.

. Enjoy a one-night stay for the family at the plush Pelican Bay Hotel.

. Win a thrilling dolphin encounter through Unexso.

Ten additional winners will each receive a $25 Kelly's gift card.

For our category winners - Pretty Princess, Water Baby and Hungry Baby - special prizes have been lined up. Details of further categories will be announced later.

The competition is open for children aged between birth and five years old.
