My thoughts today

Times are a-changin'. Last night we test drove our first minivan. That was weird. Today I took a bunch of pictures of our condo before I start taking pictures down and dismantling everything. The main floor is already filled with boxes. We are going to miss this place. But last night we drove by our new house and I'm really excited about that too. It'll be so great to just get into it and get sort of settled.

I keep going back and forth emotionally. Obviously I am so in love with our babies and can't wait to meet them but today Caden and I were laying on the couch together watching cartoons and I wondered how often we will get that kind of time together once everything changes. I try not to worry about him but I can't help but wonder how all of these changes are going to effect him.

And when we looked at that van last night I tried to act out how I will get the infant seats into the back over top of the bases that will be in the front buckets and am seriously wondering if I will actually, physically, be able to do it. I had a bit of a panic attack "I can't do this!!!". It is definitely a little scary at the moment. But people have done it and I will too! It's just so hard to picture.

In some ways I'm just anxious to have the babies get here so we can just get at it. But at the same time I can't imagine ever feeling ready or prepared. This is definitely an adventure. So - ya - those are my thoughts this morning :)

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...

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 ...

An Exciting Day

Hello friends! I'm having a very exciting day. Today is the day that I received my new logo! Can I just tell you all that if you can get a sister in law that is a fabulous graphic designer - absolutely do it!  If not - I'm so sorry for you but maybe you can use mine? Just say my name and she might squeeze you in between all her other clients.  She very patiently worked with me to come up with a logo that is neat and simple. I love it. Here it is: Check out her website here . And you can like my facebook page here .
