Sleeping 8 hrs

We are so blessed to have such a little angel...

Brianna has started sleeping 8 hrs per night. She is a little clock with her rythm. We can look at the clock and say,"Oh, she should be waking up in the next 15 minutes." And sure enough, she'll open her eys and start moving around.

She has also just started cooing. She makes the most wonderful little sounds. We'll video it and put it on the blog in the next few days.

She is smiling more and more each day. That is the best way to melt Daddy's heart...

What a blessing it is to be parents!

Taking in everything new

Well, Brianna is 7 weeks and 3 days old today. We took this video of her watching the little ducklings that spin above her swing. She is so allert and it seems she is learning it all!!

Congratulations to the McGill Family

Brycen David McGill was born today at 11:38 am.

We thank God all went well and that everyone is healthy.

Bibi & I went to college with Jeremy at PUC and we have been so blessed to get to know his wife Wendy and their little daughter Kiley.

For more info on little Brycen, you can follow the link to their blog on the Right.

One Month Old

Today Brianna is 1 month old.

What a blessing that she was born on a Sabbath and today, 4 weeks of life, is also a Sabbath. We got dressed up to go to church and take some nice pictures of our little angel.

¡Hoy Brianna cumple 1 mes de vida!

Llevamos a nuestra hermosa beba a la Escuela Sabática de la Iglesia de Crosswalk vestidita de lila y blanco, toda una muñequita. Ella se sentó en la sillita de visitas mientras el resto de los nenes y padres le cantaban una canción de bienvenida. Es el primer sábado que estuvo despierta y muy alerta durante todo el programa. Como dice el abuelo Ken, Brianna es una “beba excepcional.”

Here is a picture of my two angels!

Bri is all stylish with the sideway's hat...

She was welcomed to Sabbath School with a special song by all the other kids.

Here are some cute pictures of Bri. I think she was tell Daddy how much of a Stud he is...

Coming Home

Here is a short video from the hospital and coming home. It's so cool to go back and look at how much Brianna has changed in just the past few weeks!!

Enjoy.

Our double-date to see Il Divo in concert

Bibi and I had our first date as new parents on Saturday night to see Il Divo in concert at the Gibson Amphitheater at Universal Studios Hollywood.

We went with Ron & Jean Mataya and had a great evening out. Grammy & Grampy Pierson came down for the weekend to baby-sit Brianna. It was also great seeing them again!!

What an incredible concert!! For those of you who haven't heard of this group, you really should check them out. Their website is http://www.ildivo.com. They are four guys who sing a mix of opera and popular music with very tight harmony. It is very good music and we had a great evening.

Sorry the pictures are so poor... it was too dark to get good pictures.

Thanks to the Matayas for going with us and to Grammy & Grampy Pierson for babysitting. It was a great evening!

Super Mommy

I know this is hard to believe... so I have pictures to prove it.

This is Bibi just 18 days after having a baby!!! (These pictures were taken on Feb. 22)

She went to the gym once and decided that she still needs to take it easy... but all the work her body is going through to produce so much milk must be burning any extra baby fat she had.



I'm a very happy man...

A 18 días del parto Bibi ya tiene la panza chata! Debe ser todo el trabajo el cuerpo esta haciendo para producir tanta leche para la gorda! Yo, como esposo, ¡ando re-feliz!

One week old

Here is little Bri at 6 days old having some Tummy Time, appropriately on an XS Energy Drink blanket. When she's on her tummy she gets really active and scoots herself around in circles.

On Sabbath afternoon, Feb. 11, we had a 1-week old celebration lunch with Grampy & Grammy Pierson, Great Grandpa & Grandma Bieber,

Tom, Amy & little Cohen Allen,

and Beth Gottschall.

We also saw Jeremy, Wendy & Kiley McGill later that afternoon. We can't wait until April when they are expecting a little boy. You can link to their blog on the right of this page.
