To celebrate life, the Register wants to print your baby pictures — with captions that are funny, sentimental or inspiring. A recent photo of any child 3 months to 3 years old is eligible. The best photo/caption combination will be printed each week.

Include all information you see in the feature.

For each photo we use, we'll send you a 2 ounce Baby Mug.

Send your photos to Baby Mugs.

Include your name, address and phone number so we can contact you for details about your baby. If you want to receive your photos back, send them with a self-addressed and stamped envelope for return mail. If possible, send a copy, not your original. We cannot be responsible for unreturned photos.
