Wow I havent written for almost a month! What a crazy month it has been!
My father arrived in Brazil December 14th. He stay with us in our apartment, so there were 4 adults and one baby staying in a tiny-tiny apartment. Leto slept on a mattress on the floor while I slept on the couch! On December 17th Brenda arrived with her family. It was so amazing to see them, and hard to believe that Roland, Patrick and Bridget were actually in Sao Paulo!
I celebrated my 30th birthday On December 18th. I got the best birthday present ever, all of my family here to celebrate with me! We had a party for me and for Ceci (it was her one month birthday!) at Leto's parents house. It was an awesome party, which i spent most of breastfeeding!
We celebrated Christmas Eve with Leto's extended family and open our presents at midnight, which is the tradition here in Brazil. Ceci slept through the festivities but I made her wake up to put her in her "My First Christmas" outfit and take a picture. She was not happy at all! Christmas morning we had a nice brunch prepared by Leto and I! We spent New Years Eve at Leto's parents as well. There were lots of fireworks but Ceci slept through most of it! On January 4th my family went back to California. It was so nice to have them here and we did a lot of fun things (see pics below). The night of January 4th was the first night Leto and I were alone with Ceci! It was wonderfully peaceful! Now we are "back to normal." Ceci is doing great. She is so big and has the cutest chubby cheeks. We are still waiting to see what color her eyes will be, but she sure looks like her daddy! Good thing he is a cutie! At her last doctors appointment (Dec 21) She weighed 9 pounds... so she gained 2 pounds since she was born. I am sure she has gained a lot more! She is sleeping slightly longer at night, but i am still exhausted! I cant wait for the day when she sleeps more than 4 hours!!!!
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year!
Here are some pictures of our adventures over the last month! (they are our of order and i am too lazy to put them back in order!
Patrick and Bridget love their new cousin!
