How big are we now?

We just got back from the boys' 6 wk checkup and everything is looking good. The boys were weighed. I'm a little worried about Liam as he has lost some ground compared to the other boys. We need to get some more food into that boy!

Here's their weights now:

Dylan 10 lbs 1 oz
Evan 8 lbs 7 oz
Liam 7 lbs 12 oz

There was a time when Evan was only 3 oz bigger than Liam and now he's 11 oz bigger. Yikes. Liam's eating had dropped off but then it has just picked up again so I'm sure he'll be fine. That's the update anyway. I said I wanted to weigh him again as soon as we get home after Christmas and Justin said - that's a good idea - everyone gains weight over Christmas holidays :)

Justin you are funny!! I wouldn't worry to much about their weights you know. Maybe Liam will just be a shorty like his uncle Adam, nothing wrong with that!! We had fun with everyone on the weekend...despite the zoo effect!
Justin will have to check our blog soon for zack's "uncle justin as an elf" picture!!

Hey, just thought I'd let you know that Dylan has passed Canyon (who was born 2 days later at 40w5d, of course a singleton!) in weight, pretty impressive for a triplet if you ask me! He was 9lbs14oz at his 6wk appt. yesterday :) Sounds like you're doing great, so glad to hear...and a bit awed by you guys! LOL Merry Christmas!

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...
