Levi had an adhesion on his poppi(aka his man part) that he had to have fixed yesterday.  He was given a sedative beforehand, which it was quiet comical seeing a "drunk" 2 year old.  He was only given gas for sedation and didn't need an I.V. or need general anesthesia.  We were so thankful!  The procedure only took 10 minutes.  We were back in the car by 9:45 and headed to Chick-fil-a for a biscuit.  He was super cranky when he came from recovery, but was his old self by the time we were in the car. 

I was totally blessed with an overwhelming sense of peace yesterday and Tuesday.  I do not handle medical situations well and would normally be stressing if he was dealing with a hangnail.

I will be 38 weeks on Sunday and we are starting to get use to the idea of having another baby in the house.  David has been staying up later and sleeping in a little later all in preparation for what's to come.......that's what he says at least!  He is an amazing father and I can not imagine life without him.  He has been known to go to work while I am in labor or in the hospital, but he also stays home in the morning for weeks until we are adjusted.  He lets me sleep a few hours before he comes to bed in the evenings, which is always nice.

We can not believe we are on our 4th go round of this baby stuff!  There are times it doesn't feel like we are about to have 4 precious babies, especially when we think of each one of them individually.  They each are their own and although we love them differently we love them all the same.  In the midst of chaos we are quickly reminded our house is full....about to be fuller!  And then there is our grocery bill.  Oh my!  3 boys.  We could probably pay for 2 weddings with what we will pay for in groceries over the next 18 years!  

I am trying to live in a state of gratitude rather than a state of fear.  I call myself a believer in Jesus Christ, therefore I have to live in constant pursuit of Him...believing in his sovereignty, goodness, love, and his plan for his creation.  Trusting I DO NOT know, and will never know all that I want to know to make sense of this mess.
