One of the things in Brazil that happens once you have a child is that you stay home for quite awhile (3 months) to keep the baby healthy. Many different thoughts about having a baby here in comparison to home but we don't follow all the rules. However, after having another csection I have spent a lot of time at home. Even though we have been home more than normal, doesn't mean we haven't had constant visitors. Here are a few of the people that have stopped by to visit our new baby, Calen. Calen of course mostly sleeps through all the visits but it has been good to see how much the Brazilians already love this little boy of ours. We did make it to church finally this past Sunday and everyone was very excited to see Calen, some for the first time enjoying seeing him in person and not just pictures. The thing about Brazil that I love the most is how much they love children and how much they make you feel a part of family. This has been so important this past month as neither of our families have been able to be here to celebrate the birth of Calen so our Brazilian friends have been a great support for us since Calen's arrival.
