The Big Bash

22 kids and a whole lot of fun.  That was Caden's birthday party on Saturday.  He loved being able to celebrate with so many of his friends.  And we loved seeing him with that beaming smile on his face.  
He chose the angry bird theme...

These are monster cookies instead of loot bags...




While everyone was arriving we had magnets out for them to make - glue the angry bird onto the magnet.  As soon as everyone was here we headed downstairs to find a bunch of eggs that the pigs had hidden.  They are fast finders :)...

This game is like musical chairs but no one gets pushed off a chair.  The pieces of wood on the floor have angry birds on the other side and a few have pigs.  If you get a pig board when the music stops, you are out.  They had a lot of fun with this game.  And boy can these kids scream in joy when they get the right board.  Yikes!

Stick the face on the pig.  Fun.  But Justin decided to not only spin the kids in his line but to also flip them.  We had started with a line of kids each but it wasn't long before we only had one line (his) instead of two.  It was hilarious.




Time for cupcakes.  His french immersion classmates sang to him first in english and then in french.  It was cool.








Gift time...






It was crazy but fun and memorable for the birthday boy and his friends and that's the whole point!

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...

Did you know?

So, did you know that exercising regularly can help you have more energy!? Okay, so did I. And did you know that eating healthily also helps with that? As does going to bed at a decent time at night? I guess we all know that but I haven't been good at acting like I know that. I was getting frustrated. I was just so tired in the evenings. I wasn't having the kind of quality time with my kids or my husband that I wanted. I didn't feel like going out with friends in the evening. I was okay during the day but that's not when I am with my people, for the most part anyway. Sometimes, I would fall asleep on the couch before my kids bedtime!! If I wasn't asleep, I was lethargic and unmotivated. Just not the me that I wanted to be. It doesn't sound like much, but I just couldn't stand wanting to be intentional but not having the energy to do the things that mattered to me. And my kids are 9,9,9 and 11. That's old enough that I can't use the...

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.
