Cute Cousins

Gabriela couldn't believe how much her cousin Brianna had grown
since the last time she saw her!
These baby girls don't really look alike... but they definitely look like their moms.

Gabriela's busy November!

We had a great trip with our friends Bruce and Julie to West Point.
Pete, Cathy and the boys were wonderful hosts!
Gabriela had her fist experience in the Exersaucer and LOVED it!
And she got to visit with Nanny Blair again!

Kilner Family Trip




Gabriela enjoyed the company of her Kilner cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents this past weekend in Wildwood, NJ. Her uncle Joe will deploy again in November so it was a special treat to all be together before he leaves. We had a great time!

Bathing Beauty



Gabriela decided that since it was still plenty hot enough to go to the beach but Mommy and Daddy wouldn't take her there she would wear her bathing suit in protest!

Gabriela Maria's Christening

Gabriela was baptized on Saturday at the Vigil Mass at St. Joseph's Church on Capitol Hill. Carla and Joe Branco (Jose's sister and brother-in-law) are her godparents. It was a beautiful ceremony and we were so blessed to have our family and friends there to witness her special day. (more baptism pictures)

5 Generations




On Saturday we drove to Catonsville, MD so that Gabriela could meet her great-great-grandmother and her great-aunt. Nanny Blair and Sister Joan were so excited to meet her. Nanny Blair just celebrated her 99th birthday! We are so blessed by her presence in our lives. The rest of the pictures of our visit can be found here.
