PHOTOS: Babies Compete Over Their Patriotic Pride

If you're a sucker for cute babies dressed up in red, white and blue - the Patriotic Baby contest on the morning of Saturday, July 28 might have caused you to faint.

Seventy-nine babies from 12 days old to 3 years old battled against each other to win the grand prize of a $50 savings bond by being the most Patriotic baby of the group.

"People are so creative with their kids, so it's fun to see what they come up with," said the mother of 8-month-old participant Taylor Vittori, who 'loves chewing her older brother's Batman toys.'

Other funny tidbits about the youngsters were said as they were introduced to the crowd of more than a hundred people. It was announced that 10-month-old Jackson Kedziora "enjoys checking chicks out at the park."

"I wanted to get Jackson out in the community, and make him some new friends," Jackson's mother said.

After winners for the six sub-categories were given out, the grand prize for most Patriotic Baby went to 9-month-old Gianna Drechsel-Anderson.
