TAKING a bow is the winner of the 2016 Times Bonnie Baby Competition.

The successful youngster is little Carter Paterson, who is 10 months old.

Carter took on a host of opponents from all over the Cowdenbeath-Lochgelly area.

Mum Kimberley is a Cardenden woman, although she now lives at Tees Wharf, Kirkcaldy, and she was rightly delighted that Carter won the £300 first prize.

She said: “What a really nice surprise to end 2016 with.

“The family in Cardenden were right behind Carter’s challenge and I have to thank every one of them for their support to make this to happen”.

Carter was happy with his win during the six week long competition.

His success makes it the second successive Bonnie Baby title for Cardenden.
