Well the birthday is done and we are moving on. Last night was Caden's first outdoor soccer game and it was COLD. I kept the little boys home so we didn't get to go (although being warm made up for missing it). Caden enjoyed it and enjoyed the hot chocolate when he got home. Things are going well. I took the gate down from around the tv and the kids are listening a little better about leaving it alone. We leave the gate to the basement off now and the kids go up and down at their leisure. It's nice - gives me an occasional quiet moment. We won't take the gate off the front stairs for awhile. Dylan gets the door open and heads out and even locking it isn't reassuring enough for me. So - gate stays. Our street is just too busy to risk it. Not that I'd risk it anyway! The kids are still doing pretty good about not having soothers during the day. Dylan will open the drawer where I keep them every once in a while and he'll whine but not very often. The bottles aren't missed at all. It's so nice to be done that. The kids slept from 8 - 5 last night without a sound. I soothered a couple of them and that got us another hour of sleep so that was alright I guess. Even Caden is up by 630. WHY! Why won't my kids sleep longer than that? It's not so bad as long as I remember to go to bed early enough. I've been making time in the mornings to exercise and am feeling a lot better already. It's only been a week and a half but I'm hoping to stick to it for a while. It's basically been over 2 years since I've worked out so it's about time! I just heard a big toy get thrown down the stairs so that's the end of this blog!
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
