Coloring

I'd like to treat the kids the same as I would if there was only one almost 2 year old, instead of three. In the world of crafts (especially painting ) I haven't done that. I'm kinda scared to bring out all that crazy mess making stuff with them but we did it at daycare! So - I am trying to do it more. Coloring with crayons is nice and safe and we decided to do that on one of our many rainy days last week.

Dylan was pretty into it and I ended up with a few pictures to put up on the fridge.

Evan had more fun playing with and sorting the pencil crayons.

Caden has started showing more interest in crafts lately. I'm glad. He was never really into it before but now he wants to make stuff and try things.

Liam just played with the crayons for a while and then started chucking them around.



If only it would have lasted for more than 10 minutes!

On the days you find yourself looking for ways out - take it from a mom who works full time that you are one of the lucky ones who gets to spend day and night with your little angels! This is what I envy most - and I know I'm pretty lucky to have the two chicklets I have and work full-time to boot... Hugs, Laura

Hey did you notice how you said "we" did it at daycare. You had more help at daycare remember!!

Good for you for getting stuff out and "crafting" with them. I wasn't very good at doing that sort of stuff with my kids.

So yay for colouring!

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...
