God is in Control!!!! Even when we feel out of Control.....
I know it says somewhere in the bible that the Lord does not give us more than we can handle through him. (If you know the location of that verse I would love to have it.) Well I am at the point of clinging to that verse with all of my heart. I am on my knees before God crying out Okay God I am listening you have my attention. I am either at the end of where I can go and God my wonderful savior is about to pull me back and say I just needed your attention or Satan is trying to deceive me and make me feel like one more thing will be my fall. Well I have news for Satan you will not win because I know (through many tears and breakdowns that Mommy has helped me through) that even if there is more it is because God is testing my faith. I am saying this here and now for Satan to hear loud and clear that I have taken the step into the darkness and I am just waiting for God to reveal to me the next step or my wings so that I may fly.
Okay Okay now I will back up and fill you in. I am 37 weeks and 5 or 6 days pregnant. Through out this pregnancy I have dealt with severe migraines and some other difficulties. About a month ago my youngest stood up on his bunk beds and put a fabulous hole in his head right around his right ear. That took 3 stitches. Then approximately 2 weeks ago I fell and broke my left leg in 3 places. Yes I am on crutches until after the baby comes. Since my fall I have been living with my parents because I can't get down the stairs without feeling like I am going to fall. Well my husband has been living at home so that is 2 weeks without my husband. I also know while it is hard on me, it is just as hard if not harder on my parents to have me and the kids back at home. Well I went to the doctor on Tuesday and the doctor told me she would be really surprised if I made it to my next doctors appointment which is scheduled for next Wednesday. I am dilating and 50% effaced so things have definitely gotten started. Well then I am using the computer yesterday and the kids are cleaning up for their nap and my oldest went running out of the computer room to get something and I heard him fall. I turn to check on him and there is blood all over his face. I walked without my crutches because like if you read my previous posting that Mamma instinct kicked in and my focus was on taking care of my child. He now has 3 stitches in his forehead. The baby could come any day now and well quite frankly I am not ready.
Like I said I am clinging to the verse that says God will not give me more than I can handle through him.
Anyways the next time I post will probably be after my next doctors appointment or after the baby is here so Keep us all in your prayers please. Love you all.

Making my Pregnancy even more Difficult...
For those who don't know I succeeded in breaking my leg/ankle in 3 places on March 6. I was at Cost Cutters getting the boys hair cut for their big trip to Texas with just Grandma and Grandpa to see Uncle Shawn become a Rescue Hero like Jake Justice. ( Jake Justice is a police officer and my brother just graduated this last Friday to become a police officer.) Well anyways AC was getting his hair cut and I was holding Trace. I stood up to show them something with AC's hair and when I went to sit down I caught the foot rest in the barber chair, the entire chair twisted and I started falling. Well Momma's instinct kicked in and I turned to protect my babies (truth be known Trace was the only one to cross my mind because he was the one I physically could see and hold) well I turned to land on my back and my leg twisted underneath me. I broke my Tibia in 2 places and my Fibula in 1. Yes it is extremely painful and actually a complete pain considering I am 36 weeks pregnant and on crutches.
I went to the doctor (the same one my father went to when he broke his collar bone and to tell you what a good doctor he is he actually remembered my dad). They took me out of the unstable splint and put my in a bright green cast (my husband asked me if it glowed in the dark). I chose this color because green in my oldests favorite color, mine too but it was for AC. Trust me it doesn't match anything in my wardrobe so it was definately for AC. They took another s-ray because there was a minor displacement, and it has moved a little but if it heals like this it would be okay. They want to see me in a few weeks (after the baby is born) to see if it has moved anymore. If it has there is a possibility of surgery, but they won't do anything until after the baby is here. They gave me a water proof cast which is kinda uncomfortable but the doctor joked that it was because if my water broke it wouldn't ruin the cast. Like I said he is a good doctor.
I go see my OB/Gyn today, and I know I will get picked on for being a clutz. This pregnancy has been somewhat difficult and I just added another difficulty. I get to be in a cast for delivery. I will also find out today if I will have to have another sonogram because they are concerned about my weight gain (or lack there of, I have only gained according to their records 6 pounds according to mine 12, they go by first doctors appt. (which was almost 3 months in this case) and I am going by my start weight, and also the fact that I measured a little small this last appointment.) So if there is still a discrepancy then they will do a sono to make sure the amniotic fluid is okay because the measurements they do says the baby is.
Well I will keep you all updated and I know my mom will pass this on to those on her list. I would appreciate the prays for my family and myself. I have been living with my mom since the fall (even though she hasn't been here for almost a week) because I live in an upstairs apartment. Now with the cast I hope to be going home because I know my parents are happy as empty nesters and not use to having toddlers around 24/7. I have no doubt in my mind that they would let me stay but I am ready to go home to my home. Even though I like the comp and big screen tv . Like I said if you will just keep us all in your prayers I would appreciate it and will try to keep you updated as much as possible.
