Tuesday came and we got to the hospital at 12:30. They started prepping me with iv's (ouch), a taking my blood. My anesthesiologist came in and really put me at ease. She was a huge help! They wheeled me back to the OR around 2:30. I couldn't wait for Mark to get back to the OR with me. Once I saw him I felt much better. At 3:09 on September 11, 2012 we heard Job's first cries. The doctor and nurses couldn't believe how chunky he was and the nurses were so awesome to let Mark take lots of pictures!
So Job Michael Fortney is here. We chose the name Job because of the testimony of Job in the Bible. The man went through so much and yet he never once cursed God. He praised God and God blessed him abundantly. Our prayer for Job is that he will glorify and praise God no matter what God brings in his life. Michael means "Who is like God?" What a sovereign, gracious God we serve. There is no one like God. We pray that Job will understand his need of a Savior from his sin at a young age. That Job will accept Christ as his Savior and grow to be more like Christ every day.
We are thrilled to have our 4th addition to our family! Welcome Job! We love you!

Mj and Jadyn got to meet Job that night.
I love that little tongue!
Gabe met Job the next day!
So excited to be with their new baby brother.
Jadyn is a little mommy
I love those cheeks!!!
I truly am blessed! After being told that having Mj was a miracle and we could never have more children without the help of fertility drugs and knowing that we could never afford that. I never in my wildest dreams could of pictured my life with these 4 miracles. God is amazing! I do not deserve to be their mommy and I thank God every day for his graciousness in these 4 gifts He has chosen to give to me!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Job is adorable!
I'm praying for a fast recovery for you, as I know the challenges (but also the blessings) of have c-sections! :) Thank you for sharing your beautiful family!
