This research aimed at describing the characteristics of the acquisition phase, the first phase of the family life cycle, marked by the union of the couple and the living with small children. The study was carried through with 50 middle-class families, in the acquisition phase of the Family Life Cycle, from the city of Vitória, ES. The participants answered a questionnaire based on the Paulista Family Life Cycle research, which is adequate for the understanding of the dynamics and values of families from the City of Vitória. The collected data was submitted to the program SPSS for Windows and, after that, we performed a qualitative analysis of the data. The family in the acquisition phase from the city of Vitória was shown to be more traditional, with conflicts related to issues outside the family dynamics, such as money and professional satisfaction

Palabras clave : Family; life; cycle; acquisition phase.
