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

And the final answer is....

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 !
