Goodevening and Happy Labor Day Weekend!
We apologize that we have not blogged in a while, we have been real busy with our most recent move. We plan to get back on track with our weekly updates.
We would like to first of all praise the Lord for the generosity of all of our family and friends. I don't have my Bible with me but I do know that the Lord loves all people more than the lillies of the field and the crows of the sky so He tells us not to worry about tommorrow as He will always provide for us in the time of our need. Words are not enough to thank every one out there that has generously given their time, weekends, weekdays, baby gifts, gift cards, labor, moving trucks, washers/dryers, and love to our family. We are so grateful for all of you and it is incredible that our babies' room is full of clothes, swings, bibs, rocking chairs, diapers, and much more. Thank you to all of you for being a blessing to our family and we pray that the Lord be with you. The servitude that we have seen out of all of our family and friends is truly a display of our Savior as He was the perfect servant. We pray that we may be able to serve you as you have served us. Thank you!
Furthermore, I would like to thank Vanessa for everything she does. Since the day we learned that Vanessa was pregnant she has done everything by the book in terms of taking the proper nutrients and vitamins recommended for a triplet pregnancy. I know that is why the doctor is amazed that the pregnancy is being carried so well and she allowed Vanessa to keep working. Speaking of work, as a husband it hurts me to see my wife work as she comes home with swolen feet, legs, carpel tunnel, and much more. She is extremely exhausted and I really don't know how she does it. She has pulled up her boot straps and doing amazing things for our family. Being newly self-employed does not always have immediate results and I just pray that I may be able to provide for our family. I tell Vanessa all the time, but I would like to reiterate how wonderful and beautiful she is and I will never forget what she has done for our family. She is going to be a wonderful mother and a delight to watch in action. The Lord has continued to teach me to trust in Him and he continues to teach me how to have Faith and be dependent on Him. I pray every day to help me live the life of Jesus and through Vanessa and all of our family/friends I have seen the most amazing acts of service and love. I hope to give back and multiply the blessings given to our family to the rest of you and others we don't know.
Next is an update on Mateo, Diego, and David. All of the boys as of last week weighed about 1.07 Lbs! That is larger than most triplet pregnancy averages. They are all very active including David and it is amazing to feel them move around. David, still has minimal liquids in his birth sac but his bladder has emptied but unfortunately there is still no opening for the liquid to get out and stop putting pressure on his chest cavity. We pray every night for all the boys and for David's healing, but we are preparing ourselves in the event David does not make it pass birth. I pray that the Lord if He chooses to take David, that he gives us a few minutes, hours, and hopefully days to spend with him. I give praise for any time we get to spend with David. I know through David the Lord will allow us to continue to spread the Good News of the Lord, although we are very troubled by his condition we praise the Lord for choosing us for this challenge. In the story of Job, the Lord allowed for many bad things to happen to him because he knew that Job would never turn from the Lord or denounce His Name. We pray for the same strenght that Job had, that although we may lose our son that we will never denounce the Name of the Lord. Just like He gave His only Son for our salvation, there is no greater love than the one demostrated through the crucifixion of Jesus. We accept the cup the Lord has given our family.
Finally, we would like to thank the Haskin's family for opening their home up to us. Although, we are excited about our new home we will miss our time with the Haskins. I really enjoyed seeing them in the morning and hearing them come back to school. My wife has turned my nephew into a Nintendo junkie and I turned my brother - in - law into a Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and Laura Ingraham fanatic. We enjoyed daily golf car rides through the hills of Lincoln driving through the "Streets of Dreams" and driving on private golf courses, and not being able to make it up the hill with over 4oo Lbs on an electric golf cart. The golf car rides were very relaxing and we were able to covet people's back yards and homes for a couple of minutes. Speaking of Nintendo, as I am writing this blog my nephew just came upstairs to turn it on and start playing. I have worked out of their home for the past two months on a round desk upstairs and will miss everything except for the lack of cell phone reception. My niece is wonderful and just laugh at how cute and bossy she is. Thank you to Monica for all of the breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. We are very grateful to them and all of our family who provides blessings for us.
In closing, we have another appointment on Thursday and we are excited to see the kiddos. It will be here sooner than later as we are two months and counting. Thank you again to everyone and blessings to all of you.
Adrian and Vanessa
