Halloween

We had another fun halloween. The kids loved it of course. Caden picked his own costume this year and surprise, surprise, it was a star wars costume! This is my handsome Darth Vader.

Here's our happy elephant.

Cutest giraffe ever! But he wasn't into it at first. Kept taking it off. But once we got outside and he realized he got candy - he was on fire. Just cruisin' from house to house!


And last but not least, our puppy. He was happy too but had trouble with the puppy head. It kept falling over his eyes and he couldn't see.

All four, ready to go get candy!!
Once Evan knows what he is supposed to do or where he is supposed to go, he gets on a mission. He'd get his candy and off he'd go, way out ahead of the rest of us. And he HAD to walk on the sidewalks. No walking on lawns, and at one point, when he did get behind, Justin carried him to catch up with the rest and he got mad, went back to where he had been and walked where he wanted to walk to get to the house.

Here's Evan way out ahead of us.

Dylan powered out first and was dragging his bag along behind him.

Candy, candy, candy


home with our stash



Lots and lots of fun!! We only had a handful of kids at our place so between what we had left and what the kids brought home, we have WAY TOO MANY treats. Yikes.

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.
