The weekend continues....

Saturday, last weekend, was Caden's Christmas Continued. Check the last post for pics from that. Then on sunday we were all invited over to Bouchards for lunch. Skip and Mariann were there and we all had a nice visit.

Grandpa Skip and Isaac

Mariann and Judy

Caden always finds tonnes to do at their house. He LOVES it there.

To add to an already lovely time - Judy and I got FREE pedicure's !! How lucky are we?

CADEN'S FIRST HAIRCUT - Judy has been doing Justin's hair his whole life and even did mine for most of my teen years and some since! We thought it fitting that she be the one to do Caden's first haircut. He looked so scruffy the last little while and I just wanted it all cleaned up. We ended up with barely any hair on the floor. I guess he didn't need that much done but he still looks a little neater. He wasn't too thrilled with it so we just kept distracting him with toys and crackers! :)

I think Caden enjoyed this much more!!

We don't want to leave out grandpa Jack! He is so generously helping us with some bookkeeping and spent most of the weekend sitting right here at the computer. It was cute though - Caden kept going over to grandpa and grabbing his hand to pull him over to his new train set to help him put it back on the tracks and to get it going.

And in between all of this stuff we went out for supper, watched a movie, read a little and just had some nice visits. It was a really nice weekend.

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...

Just the 6 of us now

I haven't blogged for a few days. It's been busy around here! But lots of fun. I'm feeling very tired tonight and will likely go to bed soon! We had a fun weekend with Justin's mom and Adam and Trinda and their kids. Trinda took some pictures for us again. Keep watching and I'll post some when I get them - it'll be a couple of weeks likely. Caden had SO much fun with his cousins, as he always does. They just go downstairs and we don't hear from them for a long time. Just some laughing and an occasional scrap. The triplets are eating ALOT and we're seeing them continue to fill out and get heavier. Things are going well. Justin's mom went home tonight so it's just the 6 of us this week. Justin is taking some holidays now. It'll be a nice time together. I'm looking forward to it but I know it'll be tougher now that our overnight help is gone. A baby is crying and Caden needs to be put to bed soon so I have to go.... Here ...
