Well the story goes something like this.....:) My scheduled c-section was for May 24. On May 20, Tuesday evening something very odd happened that has never happened before. My body decided to go into labor a week early. My acutal due date was May 31. Well, naturally as I have been called the past few days, I was stubborn. I didn't want to think that I was actually going into labor. I had not even packed the girls things. They weren't suppossed to be leaving until Friday night. Well, the Lord had other plans. My contractions didn't even give me a fair warning. They just started right in at 7 pm and around 10 pm I told Brandon I had had enough and he called the doctor. The doctor pretty much scolled him for not bringing me in as soon as it started. He was wondering if I thought they were going to go away. Well, we called my parents and they quickly made it over here. In the mean time I couldn't wait and the contractions were about 1-2 minutes apart and I was "dying". We called Marrissa and K.K my life saver girls to come over and wait here till my parents arrived. In the meantime it was off. How unprepared I was. I was throwing necessity things into a bag and making sure Brandon had packed what little things the girls could get by with for a few days. Well, we were off and I mean off. This was the most intense labor of all. When I did arrive Dr. Ellison was all ready to preform the c-section but in the midst of all the excitment the lab lost my blood work and I had to sit there for almost 2 hours while they scurred around looking for it. In the mean time I have no pain medicine and I just keep trying to fall asleep to get through. We can hear them talking in the hallway about how they can't find it and they don't know what to do. They can't preform surgery without testing my blood first. Well, around 12:30 it finally shows up and I am off to the surgery room. As soon as the spinal started working I was thrilled. 50 minutes later we have baby Madison Kae. We are thrilled at the Lord's timing. I came home late Friday afternoon and so far so good. She looks nothing like her sisters who look nothing a like. :) We are so thankful to the Lord for another safe delievery of a wonderful daughter and looking forward to having a few more children if the Lord wills. We are so blessed and have so much to be thankful for!
I am so thankful also at this time for my parents. Please pray for my mom though. She took a nice fall on Friday while swinging with Olivia. She is in a lot of pain. Thanfully my dad is there to help with the girls. We both seem to be out of commission at the currrent moment and the men are taking care of their girls. Brandon has two on this end that he is doing a great job of taking care of, and my dad is doing a wonderful job with his two granddaughters!! Thank you to both of them. We couldn't make it through this time without you both!!!!
