Baby Bites & Needle Ink

This is my niece Ameera Mariah (if I just slaughtered her name I am sorry, Ananda - I am actually not sure of the spelling!)

Anyway - she is the CUTEST thing in the world...can't you just smell that baby smell when you look at her - powder, soft squishness, marshmallows...? I want to nibble on her nose and pinch her cheeks...haha, she's going to love me when she FINALLY meets me :)

Anyway - I had to share the pics! These are the first I've seen of her since she was BORN - and that was April 7th, mind you.

BTW, the tattoo is healing very nicely...someone made the comment the other day..."Nice tattoo, did it hurt?" My response: "Not half as much as Mike's death, I'm sure"...and THAT, folks, is why I stabbed myself repeatedly in the arm with a needle containing ink...it makes sense, if you really think about it.....
