Tonight

Our night was lots of fun. I just love my kids. Anyway - here's Caden at gymnastics. He loves going so much.
Balance Beam



Trampoline

Doing 'the star'
I had to lighten these pics - none of them were very good in the gym.
But here he is on the rings and the bars.



This was our welcome when we got home. How lucky are we to get a welcome like this! The boys came flying from every corner of the room when they heard us come home. It was pretty special!

Caden says he's a 'hero' because he can lift this up. He says he's pretty strong!

Now - what do you think? Do we risk it or not? I pulled out our artificial tree and put it up just to see what the kids think of it. I'm not sure it's a good idea to put ornaments on it but I'm kind of a Christmassy person and I'd be sad if I couldn't put up a tree... But is it worth it?

Dylan and Evan both eyed it up for a long time before they approached it (and yes, if you look hard you can see the branches camouflaged in the carpet. Pretty sneaky hey :)

Evan touched it a couple of times and then wandered off. Liam wasn't interested at all - or he just didn't notice it. Dylan kept trying some light touches. We'll have to see what happens tomorrow. What do you think?

Yes, yes, yes, put up the tree no matter what, decorate it, if you have to put a baby shield around it then fine, but it's Christmas.... :)

Tie the tree to the wall, and take a trip to the dollar store to get as many soft, cheep, non-breakable ornaments as you can. Put them all on the bottom where the kids can take them off and on as much as they want. It may not be the 'prettiest' tree, but it will be well loved.

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 !
