Surgery surgery and more surgery

It's week three of my more organized life. It's going well. I read some where that getting up early, exercising and have some alone time in the morning helps with being patience and living a fuller life. Well I tried it. Week three and I'm still alive. I've been more patience with my kids, I've been able to have scripture study, and I feel like I can conquer the day! I'm pretty sure the reason that I'm more patience with my kids is bc I'm too dang tired to fight with them but it has worked. 
The first week of school was rough! Shaylie loved school but would cry, complain, fight, you name it! I would be so frustrated but I knew it was just a really big adjustment. Briggs also struggled a lot. He is used to his friend being around all the time and he still had another year before he can go to preschool. It's going to be something(one long year). Love him.
I started a food budget of 100 dollars a week. I have to cook 5 meals a week. It will save money and we will eat healthier. It's more work by far! But it's been nice to have a sit down dinner as a family every night. It's been hard to cook three meals a day on 100 Dollars though. Breakfast lunch and dinner with snacks and healthy crap. It's been interesting.but it's definitely possible.
Now for the reason for the title. Wade is going in for another surgery. Yep that's being put under 3 times in almost 5 months. Two weekends ago we played soccer with a bunch of teenagers/young adults that hangout at my house. We put wade in goal so that he wouldn't hurt his knee but he dislocated his finger(again) I popped it back in and we finished the game and finished our busy day. A couple days later I told him it would probably be best if he saw a specialist. He went in and to make a long story short its busted. They have to replace some of his ligaments in his hand. It will be able to be fully functional after rehab and time. So yep here we go again. Oh well.
I've done we'll with a the craziness but I have to say that it has been Heavenly Father who has brought me through this and strengthened me. Scripture study and prayer have kept me grounded and at peace. I'm am so grateful for him and his gospel. The blessings that it has given me is amazing and I'm so glad I have the knowledge he has given me.
