Celebration

The triplets are here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They made their grand entrance on August 3, 2011.

Baby A arrived at 9:15, Ryan Anthony
Baby B arrived at  9:16, Lucas Alexander
Baby C arrived at 9:17, Ethan George

They are 16, 17 and 18 in long, They breathe and eat on their own and amaze all the NICU nurses. Mommy is resting with a big smile on her face. Daddy practices holding and feeding babies. Hopefully the whole family will go home on Sunday. And the real fun  will start. The two grandmothers, an aunt and big sister are ready to help.

Today is a special day.
Celebrate with us. Take a blue balloon, have a glass of champagne and a chocolate.

Share your experience about special baby birth.

In honor of the first set of triplets in our family, EVERY commentator will receive one of my ebooks. Leave an email with the book of your choice or email me at mona@monarisk.con

BABIES IN THE BARGAIN

With only one year left to complete her medical training, Dr. Holly Collier vows not to let the gorgeous Dr. Marc Suarez trampled her heart again.

But when a tragic accident transforms the carefree playboy into a dedicated but novice father to his nephew, Holly gives in to her maternal instincts and turns her life upside down for the orphaned preemie. But can she learn to trust in Marc again and believe in true love?



TO LOVE A HERO

Admired by men and adored by women, Major General Sergei is a true hero in his country. When a lovely American chemist stumbles straight into his arms, Sergei has more on his mind than patriotic duty.

Raised in boarding schools, Cecile buried her loneliness under long hours of study and work. Now she’s determined to excel in her first international contract.

In Belarus, a Russian country dominated by male chauvinism and intrigues, Cecile finds more chemistry than she bargains for.



Rx FOR TRUST
Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive ~ Walter Scott.
Successful physician and loving mother, Olivia Crane believes youthful mistakes should be kept secret and skeletons are better left in the closet.

The French psychiatrist she loved ten years ago detests secrets.

Can he help her conquer her inner fears or will he get burned by the past too?



FRENCH PERIL

What could be more exciting for a young American architect than to live in a French chateau owned by a young count and to work on the restoration of a chapel in the Loire Valley?

But when her professor is poisoned because he knew too much about a missing statue, Cheryl's summer job changes into a dangerous treasure hunt and Count François has his hands full trying to protect the impetuous young woman who's turned his life upside down.
Rx in RUSSIAN

He’s a Russian widower with adorable children who need a caring mother, but his heart had sealed when his wife died.

She’s an American divorcee, who lost her illusions about men, marriage and family. She won’t risk being hurt again.

Can love overcome guilt, duty and a clash of cultures?


OSIRIS’ MISSING PART
Sensual romance but not erotic.
According to the legend, the evil Egyptian god, Seth, killed his brother Osiris, chopped him into fourteen pieces and flung them all over Egypt. Isis, goddess of family, reassembled thirteen of his body parts. Since she couldn’t find his supernatural male member, where his godly power was stored, she reattached a human one.

Isis has always loved Osiris, the charming god of labor, and helps him fight Seth. Together they search for his missing organ so he can recover his godly attributes, but can Isis forgive the sins of his past and their unexpected consequences?

Congrats Mona,

They are BEAUTIFUL. . .and they look big for triplets. You are going to have so much fun, although I can honestly say that I don't envy your family, having 3 at once. . .OMG. . . my 2 are 15 months apart and I thought that was tough!

Alyssa Maxwell said...

Mona Risk said...

Mona Risk said...

Thanks Donnell. Theit father is my young cousin. his firt, but his wife has a thirteen years old girl who is raedy to help.

Which book can I send you/

Mona Risk said...

Thanks Pauline. The amazing thing is that the Mom called right after the birth by C-section. She was exhausted but awake.

Any book?

Mona Risk said...

LOL Booklister, that's exactly what my daughter and daughter-in-law said. Too much work!

What's your choice for free book?

Mona Risk said...

Thank you Allison. They are big for triplets. So far they are in good health. We hope they remain healthy. I wonder if you read ebooks.

Mona Risk said...

Thank you Marianne. The mommy is tired and smiling. Daddy seems still in awe.

Hottest book? They are all sensual although Osiris' Missing Part, To Love a Hero and French Peril have more sensual tension and love scenes. They are also longer books.

Cathy Shouse said...

Oh my goodness, I came over from the Medicals loop thinking this was a story and not real life.

Wonderful! They look so strong and healthy.

Would love a copy of French Peril.

Congrats to mommy, daddy and the entire family! They are simply precious. So glad they are able to breathe and eat on their own - what a blessing for those adorable little boys!

Mona Risk said...

Hi Cathy, it'll soon be in my next medical. LOL by then 'll have good references on how to deliver and raise triplets. I sent you French Peril. Haooy reading.

Mona Risk said...

Hi pauline, I just sent you Babies in the Bargain. Happy reading.

Mona Risk said...

Hi Steph, I am sure they will have a lot of work, but they have such a positive attitude and so much faith, they will do a great job. I don't know how but they will figure it. LOL

Lynne Marshall said...

Congratulations, Mona! How wonderful. they're gorgeous and so healthy looking.

You must be walking on air, and also be exhausted!

Mona Risk said...

Thank you, Victoria. I think they are miracle. Any book you'd like to receive?

Mona Risk said...

Hi Lynne, thanks but they are not mine, thanks God!!! Not even my grandchildren, LOL. They are my cousin's babies. Any book you'd like to receive?

Josie said...

Oh my gosh, Mona, what wonderful news! Sincere congratulations to the entire family. You have so much to celebrate!

Jill James said...

Mona, congratulations! They are such big boys for triplets. Congratulations to mommy and daddy too.

My daughter was a premmie. Born at six months she was exactly 3 lbs and 16 inches. She was in the NICU for 7 weeks and then got to come home.

Paisley Kirkpatrick said...

Life is so good some days. I am so happy for your family and the arrival of three healthy sons. Yes, you know me, I have tears and feel so happy for you all.

You asked about the happy birth of a baby - it took me 8 1/2 years to have Kristen and because I had such high blood pressure the last month, the doctor did cartwheels when she was here safe and sound. He says she is one of his miracle babies, and he's right.

I know I don't have to ask, but please keep photos coming. Congrats to you all.

Now that I have my Kindle up and going I still would love to get the Osiries' Missing Part.

Tarot By Arwen said...

Congratulations! I can see your face and am sure you have a milewide smile.

Pauline said...

many thanks, Mona! very kind of you to share you good news with books!

Dianne said...

Mona, they're beautiful!!! I'm so thrilled for you because I know how much you love your grandchildren. Now, go write a book with triplets. Or, maybe I will. Best wishes to everybody!!! Can't wait to see you in October.

Mary Ricksen said...

They are so special. Welcome to the little tykes and may they bring you much joy Mona! Just wonderful aren't they!
YAY!!

Lynne Marshall said...

Since you aksed, Mona - BAbies in the Bargain!

I knew you'd talked about your cousin. They are related to you, second cousins, is it?

Forgive my faux pas.

Lynne ?

Cheryl Pierson said...

AW, Mona! They are adorable! I always wished for twins or triplets, and Gary used to laugh and say, "If that happens you can pick ONE out." How great that they'll have each other, too, all through life.

Cheryl

Mona Risk said...

Hi Josie, I know so many people have been praying for my cousin Mary when I posted a blog called triplets last week, and the prayers worked. Thank you. Josie, if you want any of my ebooks just let me know. I know many are shy about asking but today we celebrate.

Mona Risk said...

Oh Jill, your daughter was only 3 lbs. I am glad she's doing well now. The triplets will stay only four days in the NICU to give their mom time to recover. Any of my books you'd like to receive?

Mona Risk said...

Paisley, with high blood pressure you must have had a difficult delivery. I did some research on the subject while writing Rx in Russian. Kristin is a survivor like her mom. BTW the triplets are my cousin's babies. It's a big event in the family and we are very close. My kids have two each and said no more.

It is my pleasure to send you Osiris' Missing Part.

Mona Risk said...

Thank you Arwen. It's a blessing to have more children in the family. Thank you. Let me know if you are interested in receiving one of my ebooks.

Mona Risk said...

Hi Dianne, good to see you here. My next book will sure have triplets. Can't wait to see you in October.

Mona Risk said...

Hi Mary, my dear frioend, thank you. Which ebook can I send you?

Mona Risk said...

Hi Cheryl, they are adorable for sure but I wonder about the number of bottles, diapers, overalls,... They had a huge shower and I am sure family and friends will lavish them with gifts to help. If you want to receive one of my ebooks let me know.

Lilly Gayle said...

Congratualtions Mona. They are beautiful. And I can't believe they are so big--the size of a small single birth, but OMG--these were triplets!1 Congrats to mom and dad too.

LaVerne Clark said...

Congratulations to you and everyone!! Woohoo! I've been waiting for the good news, so thank you for sharing : )

The names are all beautiful - and when we were waiting for our daughter and thinking she was a boy - we named the baby Ethan. Such a strong, gorgeous name - it suits the wee one perfectly : )

Going to send you an email now. Thanks for the offer!

Mona Risk said...

Lilly, thank you so much. I know you were all praying for them since I posted the blog Triplets last week.

Mona Risk said...

Thanks Laverne. They chose a modern first name and traditional middle name. I like Ethan too.

Beth Trissel said...

Mona this is wonderful! Love the pics. I would love to read Babies in the Bargain. :)

Amy said...

How awesome, Mona! I'm sure everyone is real proud! Just the way they should be! Congratulations to the whole family!!!

Keena Kincaid said...

How cool! Congrats on the babies, Celia. They are so beautiful...so tiny and adorable. You're going to have so much fun spoiling them, and I love the names. Are any identical or all fraternal?

Mona Risk said...

Thank you Beth. I'll send it to you right away.

Mona Risk said...

Thanks Amy. There is a joyful feeling in the family. But the dad and grandfather seem overwhelmed. LOL

Mona Risk said...

Thanks Keena. Two look very much alike and resemble the dad, the third is more like his mom.

Autumn Jordon said...

Oh, my. The little men are so cute. So glad the whole family is doing well. Congrats!
