Looking pretty at 6 months!

Here I'm wearing a pretty GAP dress that Auntie Tonya Kamaloni gave me a little while back. I'm ready to go to church!!! I'm now 22 1/2 in. tall and weigh 17 1/2 lbs. "Tall and skinny" the doctor said. I got my 6 month old shots on Friday.
I love the new grass in my backyard and playing with Daddy!
Hanging by the pool while Mommy swims. I look so cool!
 

Showing off my new swimsuit

Here is my new swimsuit. I can't wait to go to the pool and show it off! I love to sit up all by myself (and smile at the camera at the same time!)

Bianca is 10 months old and SOOOOO cute like me!!

Mission Trip to Fiji

Jeremy's parents (Ken & Gloria) & Brother & his wife (Ken & Crystal) all went on a dental mission trip to the Fiji Islands a couple weeks ago. Quite the view!!

There was plenty of work to be done. Here are Father & Son working side by side and mother assisting. I don't have a picture of Crystal working, but she's a dentist as well.

Ken & Crystal got in some great scuba diving and snorkeling. Here they are just relaxing after a day of work and fun. Check out their blog on the right side bar to see more about them. They are serving as missionaries on the island of Saipan, near Guam.

I haven't ever posted a picture of my Dad's Sesna 182. This little gem allows them to come visit Brianna a lot more often than if they had to drive the 4 hrs. to get to S. Cal.

The other person in the picture is my cousin Heidi Guttschuss. She is teaching women's health in Saudi Arabia and was just back home for a short vacation.

A visit from Gramee & G'pa

Gramee & G'pa just got back from a missionary trip to Fiji, so it's been a while since I've seen them. So it was nice of them to fly down to see me yesterday. Gramee Gloria brought me all kinds of fun gifts from from Fiji, and from Australia where she stopped over to visit frineds. The Jerrards gave me this little kangaroo, it's actually quite yummy! I love standing up and Mommy is teaching me to stand on queue. My G'pa and Grammee learned to say "Stand Up" and "Sit Down" in Spanish. They say the command and I do it. I love it because then I get lots of kisses and hoorays. Plus it's such a feeling of accomplishment when I stand up. Here's how proud I am of my self when I stand up.

A very fashionable little girl

Daddy, are you looking? Can you believe how cute I am?
Now, I'm ready to hit the town!

I'm a little heartbreaker already!

Isn't this a fancy dress? Gramee Gloria brought it from Fiji!!

Daddy's Nightime Ritual

When it's about time to go to bed, and I start getting hungry, I go eat at Mommy's Gourmet Restaurant. When food runs out there I go to eat with Daddy. Avocados are my favorite! Then it's time to clean the mess of avocados I just made... and it's been so hot recently that it's about time I take a bath.
As you can see in these pictures I LOVE THE WATER and always play a lot.
I'm just like my Mommy, water makes me smile. Now I'm all cleaned up and ready for bed.
After a fun bath I get dried off... this is fun cause Daddy plays hide-and-seek with me in the towel.

Once I'm all dry I get my new daiper, my pijamas and it's sleepy-time! I usually go to sleep really quickly cause I'm tired after a long day of playing and eating.

American Breakfast and fun in Laguna Beach

Our friend Marcelo had to experience an American Breakfast before he went back to Argentina... so here it is ...

Then, to work off our huge breakfast we hit the beach in Laguna with H.P, Diana, Zane & Marcelo. The water was wonderful, especially after such a hot week in the Inland Empire. Marcelo played in the waves like a little kid. He had so much fun!

It was Brianna's first time at the beach... and she LOVED it!!!
We had the best time in the water. Bri LOVED her first time at the beach.

Friends Frenzy at Redlands Market Night

Brianna had a really good time with Uncle Marcelo (Jeremy's best friend from Argentina). He is an MD and is finishing his PhD in Medical research. He flew from Argentina to attend an international health conference in Washington DC and then came to visit us in Loma Linda. He is contemplating coming here with his family for a year or two to work on a post-doctoral research project in Epidemiology with the Loma Linda University School of Public Health. We hope it works out!!! He is just a really neat person and we had lots of fun while he was here. All the Daddies posing ... Marcelo's girls are back home in Argentina and he misses them lots!
Our friends and business associates, Angie and Arnold Pangilinan and their three girls: Nicolette, Hailey and baby Chloe. Really neat family visiting us from Phoenix, AZ! Los Tres Mosqueteros!

Meeting more friends at Market Night!

H.P. had fun holding "light" Bri for a little while. His baby boy, Zane, is well over 20 lbs. now and beat Bri to a new front facing car seat! Here our friend Lalo is playing with his daughter Camila. We are really sad they've moved away to Ventura County. We're planning on going there to visit them soon.
H.P.'s wife, Diana, holds big boy Zane. He's SOOOO adorable!!!!
