The weekend continues....

Saturday, last weekend, was Caden's Christmas Continued. Check the last post for pics from that. Then on sunday we were all invited over to Bouchards for lunch. Skip and Mariann were there and we all had a nice visit.

Grandpa Skip and Isaac

Mariann and Judy

Caden always finds tonnes to do at their house. He LOVES it there.

To add to an already lovely time - Judy and I got FREE pedicure's !! How lucky are we?

CADEN'S FIRST HAIRCUT - Judy has been doing Justin's hair his whole life and even did mine for most of my teen years and some since! We thought it fitting that she be the one to do Caden's first haircut. He looked so scruffy the last little while and I just wanted it all cleaned up. We ended up with barely any hair on the floor. I guess he didn't need that much done but he still looks a little neater. He wasn't too thrilled with it so we just kept distracting him with toys and crackers! :)

I think Caden enjoyed this much more!!

We don't want to leave out grandpa Jack! He is so generously helping us with some bookkeeping and spent most of the weekend sitting right here at the computer. It was cute though - Caden kept going over to grandpa and grabbing his hand to pull him over to his new train set to help him put it back on the tracks and to get it going.

And in between all of this stuff we went out for supper, watched a movie, read a little and just had some nice visits. It was a really nice weekend.

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.
