Christmas time

I feel like I should write something but I'm not sure what to write. We are tired but is that news? Not really! I did the whole night friday night so that Justin could sleep and then Justin did last night so I could sleep. Tonight we will likely split it and tomorrow Justin gets the whole night since he is driving us to Calgary. That's what we think about in a day.

Although right now I also have our table covered in 'packing'. That's the extra stuff I'm thinking about as well. I'm sure alot of you are thinking about that too! I have all 4 boys pretty much ready to go. I will pack myself tonight and last minute things tomorrow. We leave on tuesday and I hate having to rush and I like to be organized!! Plus I want to get out of here as soon as we can after Justin is done work. Why? Because I LOVE Christmas and can't wait for it to be Christmas holiday time.

Some people think we are crazy to be traveling so far with little babies but I really do think the babies will sleep most of the time and that the trip will fly by. We'll see I guess. It'll be an adventure either way!

Caden is LOVING Christmas time. He is old enough this year to be super excited about everything. We went and saw Santa on thursday night and he went right up to him no problem. He took a pretty good picture and told santa that he wanted trains and diego stuff. He was so cooperative. You just never know with him. He's either totally cooperative or the absolute opposite. I guess that goes with being two. He keeps wanting to open the presents under our tree - well, under anyone's tree actually and anyone's presents. He tells me to look outside -" It IS Christmas" he says. Snow = Christmas. There was a Christmas party for the kids at church today and he had a blast. His cheeks were all red from running around and his eyes were all sparkly. Do you remember when Christmas made your eyes sparkle? I love it!!

Have a Merry Christmas everyone!!!

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...
