Baby of the Year 2008Just weeks ago proud parents, grandparents and guardians came along to photography sessions based in towns across the county to have their babies' pictures taken for our Baby of the Year 2008 contest.

More than 300 tots have been entered into the competition and there are three entry categories, 0-9 months, 10-18 months and 19-36 months. The overall winner will receive a life-size canvas portrait and a trophy and our runners-up will receive a picture and a trophy.

Voting closes at midnight on Thursday, October 2 so make sure you buy the Gazette and Herald and nominate the baby you want to win.
