WHEN baby Arlene Himadri smiles she lights up the room — and her adorability is obvious by the number of people who voted for her in our first semi-finals photo gallery in our hunt to find The Territory’s Cutest Bub.

When we called for nominations for our 2021 Cutest Bub competition, we were inundated with hundreds and hundreds of entries, and one of the very first was little Larrakeyah lass Arlene who then received the most votes in our first gallery.

Darwin bub Archie Thaddeus Dinardo came in a close second place finalist, followed by adorable Marrara baby Eli Stokes in third place.

With her big eyes, long eyelashes and long black hair, Arlene is the apple of her mothers eye.

“She is my angel who has made me realise how wonderful motherhood is,” mum Arlene Himadri said.

“Being a mum has changed my life and my perception towards definition of life.”

The NT News ended up receiving so many entries for The Territory’s Cutest Bub competition that we had to run five different semi-finals galleries, each made up of 50 nominations.

Now, each day this week we will be revealing the top place-getters in each of those semi-finals galleries in the order that we published them, so check back here every day until Friday to see how your little ones went in the first round of voting.

Once all of the results of our five semi-finals galleries are revealed the most popular entries from all five galleries will be included in the ultimate — and FINAL — vote for The Territory’s Cutest Bub for 2021.

That ultimate FINAL VOTING GALLERY will be revealed right here on ntnews.com.au next Monday, May 31.
