Not sure if any of you remember me making a post last Oct when my niece was born. This is my brother's firstborn, so it was naturally a very exciting time for us on both continents.

More than 7 months have passed, and this is the latest picture of her that my brother took. He also proudly announced Trisha now has two tiny front teeth.

Trisha can now roll on to her stomach, but hasn't quite figured out how to undo that yet. In a video that my brother took of her, she was seen grabbing at the sheets furiously as she tried to work it out. It made me laugh like crazy.

aww she is so cute. I remember how excited you were about the new arrival in the family.

such a sweeeet picture!

absolutely precious!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks for sharing!! she certainly doesn't look like a peanut anymore!!

Elen sweety...
Yes I remember Trisha, I remember her cute baby pic. How she's grown so fast. Ask your brother to give her a kiss from me hehehe.
Take care girl!

awww how cute

Oh so precious!!!! Thank you for sharing

omG Ellen you are soooo right!!!

awwwwwwwwww if she was ANY more adorable..no..she couldn't be...WHAT a sweetheart!!!! M.

She's the cutest!!!!

awwww bless her presious little heart..she is such a sweetheart

very very cute little girl....

lol Gimy, you are right - she ain't no peanut anymore. We are also extremely relieved that she is looking even more like her mom instead of her dad. In the wise and funny words of my husband, "Thank God she doesn't have your brother's ugly mug."

Every time I look at that picture, my heart just warms up instantly and I have this goofy smile all over my face. It also makes me ache to hold her. My brother asked me to take close-up photos of Brandon and me and e-mail them to him, and he will put them up on his desktop and show Trisha often that she has an aunt and uncle many miles away.

My brother had also sent a rather blurry close-up of Trisha's two front teeth. It's so amazing. Can hardly believe it's been 7 months since I heard that loud wailing over the phone when my brother played back the video of her first few minutes outta her mommy's womb. Horridly corny as this may sound, seeing Trisha's photos kinda reins in the cynicism and jadedness I occasionally feel towards the world in general. I wonder if parents feel this way too? Must be awesome.

Awwww.....she is adorable! Don't you love being an aunt?

What an adorable little moppet... looking at her big grin and radiant expression of happiness made me feel warm and fuzzy - it's infectious happiness!
