Some days with 3 babies are LONG!

There are no pictures with this post because the kids didn't stop fussing long enough yesterday to do anything but survive. It was not a successful "rejoice in this day" kind of day. It was more of a 'try your best to survive this day and maybe someday you'll feel like rejoicing again". I know that sounds terrible and I feel guilty for not making this post about focussing on all my blessings but it was just a long long day. Today didn't start out too fabulous but it is only morning yet and it is sunny, if not warm. Did someone say something about global warming? Where is that happening anyway?

I promise not to be whiny in my next post :)

I agree - you are more than allowed to feel this way - don't get too down on yourself (I just have two kids and some days are long - yeesh)!! You are an amazing woman - but you are human!!! Chin up - it can't get much worse! ;) Laura

Must of been something in the air with multiples. Lachlan was so miserable ALL DAY LONG. Then he went to bed at 7:30 and slept for 12 hours. Poor little sausage.

I am hoping today is better. I managed to treadill and shower already so things are looking up over 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.
