We're back

I know - It's been forever since I've written. I am still reeling from the loss of my computer. We have another one we can use but then I have to learn everything all over again.
February has flown by. What that means to me is that spring is ever closer. Whew!!!
My highlights this month were ladies retreat, trip to Calgary, and some firsts in Caden's life. Justin and Caden had lots fun together in the middle of the month while I was gone for a few days to Retreat. Even though I didn't get alot of sleep while there I got more than I get at home!!
Caden has started standing on his own every once in a while and even took a couple of steps last week, since then he's a bit chicken. He's also figured out how to go up the stairs a bit. He's growing so fast!
We took extra days to go to Calgary so that we could get some good family time in. Caden had fun and got to spend lots of time with his grandma and grandpa and all his aunts and uncles. He has a little walker that we took and he cruised around the house. He also spent lots of time playing with Quincy, his new furry spaniel family member. Quincy is just a few months old and is super cute. When I figure out how to put pictures on with this computer, I will post some. His other new trick is to put his hands up in the air when anyone says "so big". Cute.
We had a Mexican Fiesta on saturday. The whole family was there and we watched Jack and Judy's pictures and had a yummy mexican meal with authentic ingredients. There's pictures of that too :)
Now we are back at home and hoping to get our room finished within a few weeks. Last week I was able to get the ceiling and walls painted. Now we need to put in the floor and do all the trim. I got to go to Ikea while in Calgary and am anxious to put up all my new purchases.
So, for those of you who thought we'd gone missing - we're here.

Want a Little Freedom?

Stay in your lane. Don't look at other people's papers. Those couple of lines jumped out at me as I read Maria Goff's book " Love Lives Here" It reminded me that we can't all live the same life. Comparisons hold us back and discourage us like nothing else. We have fears of being different when we are SUPPOSED to be different. I grew up trying to fit in and not doing a very good job at it. When I was in my teens I thought I'd try a new approach so I started trying to be the opposite of what I was because I thought that is what everyone else wanted me to be. I am chatty and energetic and I tried to be dainty and quiet. I didn't do a very good job of that either. Yikes. Trying to be someone we're not is exhausting and it doesn't work. We seldom fool anyone or achieve the goal we thought we wanted. What we all really want I think, is to connect with one another and to matter. As an adult I have had goals and held them up against other p...

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.
