lazy blogger

I haven't been very motivated to blog lately. I apologize for the long stretch of nothing this time. We've been busy. Justin is working a lot. We've had tonnes of company - almost everyday over the past 3 weeks (except that past couple of days) which is more fun than blogging! It's almost impossible to get on the computer without the kids trying to type. I get their 2 hour nap but haven't been using that for computer time. I do work around the house, spend time with Caden and read a little. I've been sick the past few days so haven't blogged and haven't been able to get outside in this warmer weather yet.

The little kids are so much fun right now. Absolutely adorable and so busy. They play with each other a lot more. They are growing up so much. They eat up at the table with us now. They play in the basement with Caden and his big kid friends. They try to make us laugh by being silly. They help clean up ( a very little bit). They wrestle with each other and with their dad. This is just such a fun age. Caden is at another fun place. He seems more 4 than 3 (bday is in May). He has lots of ideas and has a great imagination. He is kind and thoughtful (got his dad to buy me flowers at the grocery store a while back and was thinking up ways to help me get better over the past couple of days. So sweet). I love these boys so much and sometimes I think about the road that got us here and sort of shake my head in amazement (yes - still!). I'm soaking up all that I can because this time and moment in my life is just zooming by me. I'll try to get some pictures up in the next little while.

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.
