The Day Has Come

I'm getting all ready and packed this morning because my doctor has decided to put me on bedrest - in the hospital. This is so not in my comfort zone. Poor Justin can't possibly be retaining all the instructions I am giving him :). I'm afraid that all the books, magazines, puzzles books, etc. that I have packed still won't help me pass the time. I keep looking at Caden running around like I'm never going to see him again. It's so silly! But I spend all day, everyday with him. Now I might see him for a couple of hours a day. And I don't get to put him to bed at night. It makes me kind of sad.

All that said - this is the best thing for the babies - we'd like to make it at least a couple more weeks, if possible. Plus - I'll get sleep this way and I can look at it as a bit of an adventure right? And, the fact of the matter is, I wasn't resting enough at home. It's true.

So - here we go....guess we'd better decide on some names :)

Oh - and if you don't hear from me for a while - you know where I am.

I read you post, and I want to tear up! It is hard being a mom hey! :) But you are right, you will see Caden again! :) And he'll do just fine I am sure.

AND, think of it as "royal treatment" :) In the hospital.......eat, sleep, read, watch tv.....without any other responsibilities! a mom's dream ;) LOL

I am so happy for you that you made it this far along, you are doing awesome!!!

Hard to imagine how close it is for those three little guys to come into the world!

I will be continuing to think about you all and pray for you all!

Take Care, REST!!!! :)

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

The 2 Week Wait is Over

The waiting is finally over. Today was the day - after 2 long weeks of waiting - that I went for my official pregnancy test at the dr.'s office. I had done a couple of Home Pregnancy Tests so I pretty much knew what to expect. I have been praying constantly, as have many of you out there (thank you so much for that). Well, God heard all of us and we are happy to report that the test came back positive. We are really happy but also very cautious . It was only 5 months ago today that we lost our pregnancy at 5 1/2 weeks. We are going to just continue praying that God will watch over this pregnancy and that a healthy baby will be born. We give Thanks to God !
