Nicholas in Brazil

I've been back in Spain for two weeks now and though I miss all the delightful moments and people in Brazil I can't stop smiling as I feel the fresh breeze of the ocean. Being away showed me how blessed and loved I'm. God has given me wonderful people wherever I go and I'm so thankful for that.

My time in Brazil was amazing. It was almost three years since the last time I've been there and been back after all this time just filled my heart with joy and love. It felt good to be among my family and friends. We shared many laughs and talks and seeing Nicholas bonding with them was priceless.

Back in Spain life has been great. Nicholas and I still adapting to the time zone and being just the two of us. He is now non-stop and wants mommy's attention 24/7! It's tiring some days and oh how I miss the many helpful hands that I had all this time (Brazil and Ohio: ) But though It's been a lot of work taking care of my sweet little ball of energy I'm so happy here! I feel so in ease. Our life style here pushes us to slow down to contemplate the pleasures of life : walking on streets, lunch with friends, watching the moon light over the ocean, enjoying church...

It's tough to live far away from our both families (and we can't wait to visit all of them again) but we got good friends that care about us like family. For that I give thanks to God! I felt loved back home in Brazil and arriving here not only from my hubby but from all of them.

Now some pics from our time with family and friends!
