Special Times

Auntie Trinda and Caden


Isn't it wonderful to spend time with family and friends? I love having people stay with us and this week we were lucky enough to have Adam and Trinda and their kids (Zackary, Jaiden and Gabrielle) here for a couple of nights. It's great how much life they bring with them wherever they go, not to mention how much cute!! It's crazy how fast kids grow up and it reminds me how important it is to take time for them and how much you miss if you don't stop to listen to what they have to say to you. Having spent lots of time with kids over the past ten years (daycare kids, nieces, nephews and friends' kids) I have learned that you aren't really living if you never make a mess (some of you may not believe that I think that but I really do!!) and how much fun it is to think about things in a new way. I hope I keep thinking about these things as I raise my own kid (s) and I hope you all will remind me if I seem to have forgotten!

They are here. They are really really here!!!

It was a cool day. Almost too cold. The kind of cold that makes you rethink your very existence.... Boy. I am waaaay to tired for that. So I will give you the un-dramatic version. So, we are getting bombarded with requests for an update and pictures. So I will oblige and provide you with all the gory details. Actually, there are no gory details. In what can only be described as an amazing answer to many prayers, the new Mooney babies were brought into this world with no problems what so ever. We entered the hospital at 10:00 in the morning and were taken to the surgery room around 12:00 noon. At exactly 12:38, the first baby, Dylan Michael was born weighing in at 6 pounds even. Then, also at 12:38, Evan Timothy also charged into the world weighing in at 5.2 pounds. Then, at 12:39 Liam David was born weighing 4.8 pounds. For those of you good at math, that is a whopping 16 pounds worth of babies. 16 POUNDS!!! And even though them just being born at 36 weeks and 5 days isn

The 2 Week Wait is Over

The waiting is finally over. Today was the day - after 2 long weeks of waiting - that I went for my official pregnancy test at the dr.'s office. I had done a couple of Home Pregnancy Tests so I pretty much knew what to expect. I have been praying constantly, as have many of you out there (thank you so much for that). Well, God heard all of us and we are happy to report that the test came back positive. We are really happy but also very cautious . It was only 5 months ago today that we lost our pregnancy at 5 1/2 weeks. We are going to just continue praying that God will watch over this pregnancy and that a healthy baby will be born. We give Thanks to God !
