What are some of your Cutest Toddler’s

favorite things? Abby is a social butterfly and loves striking up conversations with everyone she meets. Her other favorite things are playing doctor, her stuffed cat (Catty), and being with her family.

What is your Cutest Toddler’s most precious

moment? When Abigail met her baby sister Annabelle for the first time and got to hold her. She has been taking care of her ever since, changing her diapers, making her smile and occasionally sharing her favorite toys. Abby says her sister is her best friend.

What is your favorite story to tell about your

Cutest Toddler? Abigail had been wanting a Peppa Pig house for awhile so we made her a potty chart. If she filled all the squares with stickers from going to the potty, she would get the house as a reward. The day she put the last sticker on we all cheered and Abby elated “I pooped for Peppa!”

What is your Cutest Toddler’s favorite treat?

Whipped cream, yogurt, moon pies from her “Big Daddy,” and rainbow sprinkles on everything.

What has been the best part of this contest

experience for you and your toddler? Abigail says her favorite part of winning was taking pictures at the photo shoot with all the pumpkins. I must agree watching her light up and having so much fun while getting her pictures was a memory we will always cherish.

Age: 3 years old Parent Names: Matt and Rachel DiSalvatore

What are some of your Cutest Toddler’s

favorite things? Quinn loves bubbles, swimming, the beach, theme parks, and giving cuddles and kisses.

What is your Cutest Toddler’s most precious

moment? Quinn came into our room to sleep with us and so I asked him if anything was wrong, he said, “No, I just like you.”

What is your favorite story to tell about your

Cutest Toddler? Quinn is a brave boy! He’s already had six stitches and he is not afraid of climbing trees, jumping on the trampoline and doing flips! (Pray for his protection. Haha.)

What is your Cutest Toddler’s favorite treat?

Lollipops and chocolate milk!

What has been the best part of this contest

experience for you and your toddler? The best part was the outpouring of love and support we received from our family and friends. Quinn had a bunch of people rooting for him and we are definitely feeling the love. One of our friends even bought him a “you’re #1!” balloon and a Chick-Fil-A gift card. Contests can be frivolous, but the relationships that we have with our friends and family are everything. We are forever thankful to everyone who voted for Quinn! You are in our hearts.

Shout out to our honorable mentions, and a big thank you to the Museum of Illusions Orlando for providing an incredible photo location for this year’s cutest toddlers. Museum of Illusions Orlando, located at ICON Park, has more exhibits and illusions than any other edutainment destination in Central Florida!
