Day 8-First Visit with Caden

We are in Blagoevgrad....what a great town.  It is very different from Kazanlak.  This is a college town.  The American University is here as well as the Southwest University.  The Centre is very nice and filled with students from many different countries.  After our visits with Caden, we visited the older section of town.  It was amazing to see the traditional Bulgarian architecture and the artistry on the buildings...especially the church.  While there, we met a Bulgarian artist who was planning for his art exhibition to be held in Sofia.  We got to visit his studio and buy one of his paintings.  He has many paintings of different areas in Bulgaria.  A nice keepsake from our trip.

Ok...I know, I am rambling and you all want to know about Caden. ;) Well....he is ABSOLUTLEY PRECIOUS!  We got to visit with him twice today.  The visits were shorter than those we had with Avery, but it was so wonderful to be able to hold our boy!!  He was a little cautious this morning but he did not cry.  He is a quiet boy; very calm and sweet.  This afternoon he warmed up to us more and Jeff had him giggling and playing a little.  He did not seem to know what to do with the toys but he was interested in watching us play!  :)  He did try to mimic some of our actions.  We gave him lots of hugs and kisses, which to our surprise, he accepted very willingly.  Ok, I will stop now so you can see the pictures....they will make you smile!!

This video is sure to bring a smile to any face!!
