My Last Trimester in Rome

More Fun Facts...

Well I turned 33 today...and Nic turned 3 lbs 11 oz...with the hopes of being 4 lbs by new year. He even has chubby cheeks now...but the apnea persists and the infection is still around.

For my birthday today I decided to give myself my own birthday present and list all the funny things that have happened which were not funny at the time [or basically I forgot to laugh at that moment] but darn it...I have to admit they are funny now...here is just two but the rest are coming...my list is in its early stages as of yet...

1. The head of the preemie ward came to me early on and said one day..."you have given birth to an Italian citizen...you are a lucky mother..."

I told him "I came to learn a little Italian and instead I am going home with a little Italian."

He replied "by the time I let you go you will be an Italian citizen."

2. Minutes after giving birth and laying around for the placenta to fall out...the 7 women/nurses/midwives were all around my lower regions and saying things really fast in Italian and beginning to argue with each other...and finally the one doctor(dottore) asked me as I am crying and feeling a great deal of pain..."how much did you pay in America for your bikini wax?" My only response was..."Wut?"
