Easter Weekend

We had a full and wonderful family holiday this past long weekend. We went up to Edmonton for a few days. Our first stop in the.mall was the Disney Store. The kids loved that place, naturally.




Then we all went on the old time ship.





Back to the hotel to a very basic pool - but the kids had a blast. Well, Dylan and Caden had a blast and Liam and Evan were satisfied to watch them from the steps.




We were at GalaxyLand the minute it opened which is definately the way to do it on a holiday weekend. There were no lines and we got a double stroller. We stayed a few hours and then it was way too crowded but we had done all the little kid rides by then anyway.






Down time at the hotel - movie time. We were plenty played out!

The next night we went to Calgary because Justin's sister very conveniently had her baby while we were still in Edmonton! YAY. Thanks for that Jacquie. So the kids got to have an Easter Egg hunt at Grandma and Grandpa's and I got to go shopping by myself (there was very little shopping at WestEd with 4 little boys).



We were glad to get to see some family and I was able to visit with Amy who is in Calgary with her new tiny baby and we were able to meet Jacquie and Kenny's baby.

It was a really great time away. And then it was nice to get home and settle back in for the rest of Caden's week off.

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 !
