Summer is coming to an end

So all the kids go back to school soon hey? I guess summer is fading away. Are you all ready for that? I am I guess. We are trying to get things in order before our babies come. It'd be nice to have some idea of when that might be but it's basically sometime between now and the end of oct. :). We've been working on names. I know some of you that have been reading our blog the past little while might have been getting worried. But we are narrowing it down and they are nothing like "tallulah does the hula from hawaii" or "blade" for that matter.

Nothing too much else to tell. The days just keep going by and we keep being grateful for each week that passes without me having to go on complete bedrest or even into the hospital. Justin has actually been fairly busy at work so it wouldn't be a good time in that sense either.

I've been feeling kind of sick - especially if I've been up and around too much - but I'm still sleeping not too bad at night. Caden is still an early riser though. On the really early mornings he just gets to watch cartoons while I sleep on the couch!

Caden starts gymnastics in a couple of weeks. It lasts through to December sometime. I really wanted him to have something of his own and something specific that he goes to, to get him out of the house full of babies (and to have that time just with his dad). He'll have so much fun and he'll get to burn off some energy.

So that's about it around here. Have a good week.

Oh Jen - I thought I was the only mom out there who slept on the couch while the tv baby-sits Ronan! ;) Although, he gets into trouble sometimes which makes me regret the whole thing! Enjoy your time - October is approaching way too quickly. Laura

You should not feel guilty at all for sleeping on the couch while he watches tv! Do it while you can!!! :)

I am so happy that the weeks are still going by so well for you! I think of you so often!

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.
