Getting it together

The little boys have been in school for one week.  I have organized and shopped and got projects done like crazy.  I've done more in the past week than I could usually accomplish in a month!!  It has been exhilarating to work on a project, even for only 2 hours, without interruption.  Or to run out to the store right when I need something!  I'm tired after a long day of moving furniture around and moving books and boxes and all of the 'clutter' that a person accumulates.  It's nice to get rid of a lot of it and to remember the good stuff that is worth keeping.  We've also had two swimming lessons and all the kids are doing well.  Last week,  Caden started piano lessons again.  He's struggling with wanting to practice so we'll see how it goes.  He likes it once he gets going and accomplishes something.  I stocked the freezer with meals for a month so I don't have to think about that during the day.  I just pop something in the crock pot and off I go.  All of this also explains why I haven't blogged much.  Hopefully once the dust settles, I can update people better and take more pictures again.  In some ways I feel like a different person now that I get these little blocks of time to sort things out.  It's a new phase that's for sure. So, all that to say, it's been a good week!

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...
