We're back

I know - It's been forever since I've written. I am still reeling from the loss of my computer. We have another one we can use but then I have to learn everything all over again.
February has flown by. What that means to me is that spring is ever closer. Whew!!!
My highlights this month were ladies retreat, trip to Calgary, and some firsts in Caden's life. Justin and Caden had lots fun together in the middle of the month while I was gone for a few days to Retreat. Even though I didn't get alot of sleep while there I got more than I get at home!!
Caden has started standing on his own every once in a while and even took a couple of steps last week, since then he's a bit chicken. He's also figured out how to go up the stairs a bit. He's growing so fast!
We took extra days to go to Calgary so that we could get some good family time in. Caden had fun and got to spend lots of time with his grandma and grandpa and all his aunts and uncles. He has a little walker that we took and he cruised around the house. He also spent lots of time playing with Quincy, his new furry spaniel family member. Quincy is just a few months old and is super cute. When I figure out how to put pictures on with this computer, I will post some. His other new trick is to put his hands up in the air when anyone says "so big". Cute.
We had a Mexican Fiesta on saturday. The whole family was there and we watched Jack and Judy's pictures and had a yummy mexican meal with authentic ingredients. There's pictures of that too :)
Now we are back at home and hoping to get our room finished within a few weeks. Last week I was able to get the ceiling and walls painted. Now we need to put in the floor and do all the trim. I got to go to Ikea while in Calgary and am anxious to put up all my new purchases.
So, for those of you who thought we'd gone missing - we're here.

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...

Did you know?

So, did you know that exercising regularly can help you have more energy!? Okay, so did I. And did you know that eating healthily also helps with that? As does going to bed at a decent time at night? I guess we all know that but I haven't been good at acting like I know that. I was getting frustrated. I was just so tired in the evenings. I wasn't having the kind of quality time with my kids or my husband that I wanted. I didn't feel like going out with friends in the evening. I was okay during the day but that's not when I am with my people, for the most part anyway. Sometimes, I would fall asleep on the couch before my kids bedtime!! If I wasn't asleep, I was lethargic and unmotivated. Just not the me that I wanted to be. It doesn't sound like much, but I just couldn't stand wanting to be intentional but not having the energy to do the things that mattered to me. And my kids are 9,9,9 and 11. That's old enough that I can't use the...
