Easter

We are back from a bit of a break. I took the kids to Estevan last week - on my own!! - and then Justin met up with us for the weekend. It was fun and a nice change of scenery. I timed the drive during the kids' nap and they cooperated by sleeping the entire way. I had brought Dvd's for Caden just in case. But we ended up singing and talking the whole way instead. It was really good.

Before that though, Caden made some Easter eggs for the first time. He seemed to really enjoy it. We just did the simple color wax on the egg and then dip.




Here's a picture of the babies just hanging out in their diapers.



On tuesday the boys and I went to Sherry's in Weyburn for the day and then to Estevan that night. It was really nice to spend all that time with family and some friends that are like family!



The Easter Bunny came to grandma and grandpa's and Caden was pretty excited to wake up and see treats everywhere. He ran around collecting them. It's neat now that he is at an age to really get into it.




Well, that was Easter!! There seems like there is so much more to tell but I'll get this blog up and continue things in another one. There's never time to do one long one.

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...

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...

Any Guesses?

We have our 20 week ultrasound on Thursday afternoon and, as long as the babies cooperate, we should be able to find out their genders. We thought it would be fun if people would try to guess what we are going to have. Any guesses? Don't be afraid - you're bound to get at least one right :). We'll post what we know either Thursday night or Friday sometime.
