Almost a month!
It´s hard to believe that Matteo is already almost a month old! My mom and dad left on Saturday so now I am all alone:( More tired because my mom isn´t here to take care of Matteo when I take my afternoon nap. Gotta go though..baby crying.

So here we are at Estrella Del Mar, spending the last night with my parents before they head back to Canada:( It's almost midnight and my mom is rocking Matteo to sleep for me. Man, I'm gonna miss her. She has helped me sooo much. I mean, I didn't even know how to burp the poor guy until she showed me! I still can't believe how long it takes to get one little burp out of him. I thought all guys were experts in that area.
It's been a very crazy last few weeks. Matteo is 3 weeks old now and I think I am finally getting used to the idea that I am his mom....and he is getting used to the idea that he is my son. He is already seeming older...he can hold his head up and move it around and everything. He doesn't sleep that much for a newborn and likes to watch everything. My mom says that I was like that too. I hope he stops taking after me though once he hits highschool. We still can't tell the colour of his eyes...some days they look blue, some days green, and other days brown.
Oh, I think she got him to sleep! Yay, I can sleep now too! Guess I better go. By the way, Sally, if you are reading this, I am so excited for you to come. It's what's keeping me from balling my eyes out at the airport tomorrow when my mom leaves! See you soon! Buenas Noches everyone!

12 days old...where has the time gone?
It´s Mother´s Day here today (Tues) and Ives bought me a real nice black tanktop and earings and bracelet to match. so tonight we are going to celebrate and go to a nice seafood restaurant by the ocean..like a five minute walk from our house. ohoh...Matteo is waking. gotta go feed him.
Also....more details about Matteo. He weighed 3.6 kilos....which is basically 8 pounds and was 53 cm. which is pretty long and skinny. after a week he gained almost 2 pounds which was a relief to me that he was actually eating something. breastfeeding is so confusing.
anyways..gotta run.

Matteo is here!
Matteo is finally here! We moved into our new apt last Wed, April 27th. That same night I started feeling cramps at like 11pm. I thought it was just the milkshake that I had eaten for supper but by 1 am I realized that it was a little more than that. On the way to the hospital I decided to go for the epidural....but my dr didn´t know that I had changed my mind. The young dr that was there at the hospital taking care of me was told not to give me any medication and he didn´´t listen to me when I told him to. So by the time I was fully dilated and ready to go my dr arrived and gave my the epidural 2 min before Matteo was born. In other words...i went thru the 8 hours of painful labour when I really wanted the drugs. I would never do that again. It was way worse than I ever expected. I thought that it wouldn´t be thhaaaaaaat bad because millions of women have done it completely natural before me. But it was thaaaat bad..,.and in the middle of delivery i vowed to adopt all future children. But the good news of the story is that Matteo was born at 7am, Thurs, April 28th and is totally healthy weighing just short of 8 pounds. He had tons of dark hair which is getting lighter every day. His eyes look brown to me..blue to ives´ family. I think they will be brown. His skin is a lot lighter in real life than in the pictures. (I will put pictures on in like a week or so....right now I have no time). He was real long and skinny. We went the dr yesterday and he has gained 2 pounds since delivery so that is good.
The last week has also been a lot harder than I ever expected. Thank goodness my mom has been here but I´ve really missed out on not being able to share our experience and all the excitement with all my friends and family:( It´s going to be harder to go the internet now too bc we live further away and these computers are so slow. So just be patient with me.
Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers!! Keep praying because everyday seems to be a new adventure.
