Sometimes I don't blog because I have nothing much to say. Today I have too much going on in my mind to get it down properly. My lack of blogs though - makes me feel a responsibility to say hello to everyone that checks in on us. I am getting more organized these days and am hoping to be getting on here a little more. I am writing now, while the kids are awake, and am realizing my mistake already. There have been potty breaks and fights and a few warnings against bad behaviour already and I've just begun. So I am not at all focused and so this will likely make no sense and be a total waste of your time. So - if nothing else, let this be a little note to say I am still out here and I do still intend to blog. I need to get some pictures up and fill you in on how the kids are doing this first day of March. I guess that means that in two days they will be 30 months old. Caden is 2 months from his 5th birthday and we actually have his kindergarten info meeting on thursday night already. WOW.

I was at Ladies Retreat this past weekend and have been recharged. It was the break that I needed to stay sane. Can I go again in a couple of weeks? :)

Life is good. I have dared myself to seek out the positives even in this deep freeze and in the midst of what can be called 'stay at home drudgery'. I've been encourage by the book 'one thousand gifts' and I think it would be valuable for anyone reading this.

Ok - there is crying that might be signaling injury so I need to end this for now - oh - now 2 are crying that pain filled cry. Gotta go! Oh dear - there is blood....

"And a few warnings against bad behaviour"...
Was that part about the boys or their mom? Just asking. :)

And don't worry about the blood (as long as it isn't "Trip to the hospital" level).... bloody noses etc are just "liquid stories" - things to be remembered and laughed about later on (though I guess that would require them actually remembering - therefore no concussions - and being able to speak enough to verbalize the story.... so this may actually apply more to later on in life - but the principle still applies - Generally a little blood means boys have been having fun) :)

Anyway - hope you guys have a good week.... it would be nice to hang out with y'all sometime.

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.
