The week

It's been a week since our last blog and it's been quite a week. All 3 of us ended up with the flu - all on different days at least but it made for a long week. We are trying to get the condo all ready to sell and haven't gotten much done because of being sick. Last saturday we did a lot - and my parents came and helped which was great - but not much since then. Tonight we get back on track and hopefully by tomorrow night we'll be done. I am just SO TIRED all the time. And for some reason I am worrying a lot lately - about everything.

Caden's birthday is next week - we are going to Calgary for this one and I just don't feel quite ready. But I want this to be a good one because his life is about to be flipped upside down. He's about to have SO MANY changes that I worry a little about how he'll do or I guess - more that we'll do the right things to make it as easy as possible on him. I know kids adapt really well but they also have emotions that they don't know how to express so I hope we do right by him through all of this.

I'm also tired of the weather. I've been tired of the weather since November. I'm sure the warmth is just around the corner right? I certainly hope so.

A really great thing - My brother Chris and his wife Sherry had another little girl. She was born on April 21st. Her name is Elizabeth Ann. We haven't gotten to see her yet but I'm hoping we'll get to soon.

That pretty much sums up our week. We are excited about all that is happening and feel very blessed but at the same time - it's a lot to take in and life has gotten pretty overwhelming lately.

I need to trust God more and I need to give all of this over to Him. Why is it always so hard to do that? I'll be working on that.....

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.

A little disconcerting

So, we had another dr's appointment today. Everything is still looking good. We've made it to 33 weeks. That's 3 wks since the dr. originally had me admitted into the hospital. What a relief to not have had to be there this entire time. I'm now measuring 41 weeks and feel HUGE. I can hardly move anymore, let alone breathe. I'm relieved that the babies are still doing well and staying put. The disconcerting part - the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit- where preemies go) here is full. Apparently they sent a lady with twins to Toronto today. AAAHHH! I don't want to fly to Toronto (or Vancouver, according to the dr.). So I CAN'T have these babies yet. And I guess we just pray and hope that whenever these babies do decide to come, that there is room in there for them. Now I'm kind of worrying but I keep just telling myself that God is taking care of us. He's gotten us this far. Plus - If we are really lucky, I'll last 3 more weeks a...
