Korean Night , post 1 of 3

Last weekend our friends Craig and Leah came over and made us a Korean supper. They're not Korean, they've just lived there for a few years!!

Justin, helping out (and sneaking some sushi making in on the side)

Here's the spread. It was SO good. We enjoyed leftovers for 2 days after that and were sad to see it end. And just for the record - although I'm willing to try anything once, I don't usually like new things the first time around.

Hanging out after supper. No the babies didn't get any.

Count the babies in the picture....

Yup, that was 4 babies. Jason and Shannon
came too and brought their little girl, Emmanuelle


She just loved posing for the camera. SO CUTE!


Here's the 4 of them standing (sort of)

I just can't get over how fast these kids are growing. It's amazing. It was one year ago that we moved into this house so that we'd have room for everyone. I was barely even showing yet. And now look at the size of them!! I'm so grateful for how healthy they are and how well things have gone so far. Sure, I'm pretty exhausted sometimes but how would I feel if they had special needs or special diets or breathing apparatuses or .... the multitude of other things that we don't have to worry about. I'm feeling FULL today - so FULL of gratitude for finally having my beautiful family. WOW.

Oh boy - this blog is about our Korean supper.... I got a little sidetracked! Thanks guys for a wonderful new meal... and Jay and Shannon... we are looking forward to trying a Chinese meal now....

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...
