This is literally the hottest I have ever been. No joke. We are talkin well up into the 90's with tons of humidity and no chance for a/c and only having fans at the mall and church. William is rocking it by sleeping through the hottest part of the day, and I am just sweating. Constantly sweating. If you can handle the heat though, it's a beautiful place. This city is bigger than Chiclayo, and has a lot more paved roads. We are staying with a super sweet family :) everyone has been so kind to us here. I havn't spent a ton of time with everyone here though as yesterday was spent fighting a bout of Mastitis, a really really fun thing to go through in the heat let me tell you ;) on the bright side I was able to sweat out the worst of it last night. Today is for recovery and I think we will go to the market to get some sweet relief by hanging out in A/C in a couple stores. I think we will go after a Liahona meeting with a local church leader here.
Today is Bradley and my 3rd wedding anniversary!!! We have decided that it is far too hot to celebrate now, and will celebrate in a week when we are in Cusco.

Family cuddles cause the kid won't sleep alone

Don't have a mosquito net big enough for the whole bed? No problem! 

This kid just loves making friends!

One thing I have not talked enough about but will have AT LEAST one whole post about is the food. ohmygoodness, the food here is AMAZING!!!! I can't wait till I can try to recreate some of these dishes at home. Some highlights have included Cuban rice (Fried eggs, fried banana, and rice), Milagros (A fried breaded chicken, with a great white sauce, and rice), this drink made of oatmeal or quinoa that is possibly the best breakfast ever and helps keep my milk supply up for the little mister, the best burger of my life, and a peruvian/chinese mashup rice dish that was crazy good! I should have taken pictures, but I was always so excited that I would forget. I've always been a bit picky, but the only time I struggled with liking the food was the first day, and that was due to my stomach struggling to adjust to a new diet and all the travel.
