Nearly half a million babies (1 in 10) are born premature in the US each year which is higher than that of most other developed nations. This is the journeys of our first born son, Finnegan, who was born 14 weeks early and weighed only 1 pound 15 ounces at birth. Of our daugher, Korrigan, who was born a healthy 7 pounds, 7 ounces at 37 weeks. And of our second son, MacKeegan, who was also born at 37 weeks at a whopping 8 pounds, 13 ounces. Our continued adventures reminds us daily how good God is.

The Wait Is Over

Finnegan James Thomas was born this morning at 5:24 a.m. Mom did great and delivered in less than 20 minutes! Baby was trying to breath when he was born but as we knew he went on the ventilator. He was just transferred over to Childrens' Hospital also as expected - they said that he was doing good. I'm a bit shell shocked so that's about all I know at the moment. I'll update more as I have more information.
