Happy Easter

Caden wanted to wish everyone a happy easter....


We were in Estevan for the weekend and had a chance, among other things, to paint eggs at Adam and Trinda's house, a first for Caden. He had fun.

Once the painting was done Caden discovered another new love.... rod hockey. He couldn't be distracted from it. He played with it through supper time and right until we left. I was sure he was going to have a tantrum about leaving it but he actually did alright. He preferred the 'use your hands' technique to the old school 'move the men with the rods' way. Is this just a percursor to wanting to play actual hockey? What do you think?

Sunday was the easter egg hunt. He easily found all of his candy filled eggs and his big easter basket. We had some fun playing with the little chirping chick and blowing some bubbles.

Rod Hockey!!!! I LOVE rod hockey!!!! At the last 3 church youth lock-ins I brought a coke and issued this challenge: I will play anyone a game up to 10 goals - I will give you 9 goals and if you get 1 before I get 10 you get the coke - no one has ever won it. Next time you are here (or I could bring my game to Regina) Caden and I are having a showdown. Tell him to put his money where his mouth is! :)

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...

Am I really having triplets?

What does a person blog about the day before they have triplets? I mean - there are a million things going through my head but I can hardly sort them out, let alone write them down. It's all just very amazing, surreal, scary, exhilarating and on and on and on. I think there is just too much so I'll just ask that you pray for all of us and we'll try to post news as soon as we can. I likely won't be at the computer til the end of the week (if ever again :) ) but Justin will check it and try to update everyone.

Want a Little Freedom?

Stay in your lane. Don't look at other people's papers. Those couple of lines jumped out at me as I read Maria Goff's book " Love Lives Here" It reminded me that we can't all live the same life. Comparisons hold us back and discourage us like nothing else. We have fears of being different when we are SUPPOSED to be different. I grew up trying to fit in and not doing a very good job at it. When I was in my teens I thought I'd try a new approach so I started trying to be the opposite of what I was because I thought that is what everyone else wanted me to be. I am chatty and energetic and I tried to be dainty and quiet. I didn't do a very good job of that either. Yikes. Trying to be someone we're not is exhausting and it doesn't work. We seldom fool anyone or achieve the goal we thought we wanted. What we all really want I think, is to connect with one another and to matter. As an adult I have had goals and held them up against other p...
