Finn has his cannula off again! It was off when we got there today. It was a very pleasant surprise. His stats dipped a few times when we were there, but nothing that caused any alarm (he was able to bring them back up himself fairly easily). This could be temporary like last time, but for now, he is breathing on his own again. It truly makes me so happy and makes him look like such a big boy. I didn't have my camera with me (darn it!) because I let Kristine borrow it for dress shopping. Hopefully he'll have it off tomorrow, so I can get a pic of him.
We read all of his books to him and a few chapters of The Swiss Family Robinson. He ate a full feeding from me (yeah, go Finn!), we both held him and then we left. I don't get to spend as much time with him on the weekends as I do during the week, which is a little hard. However, it is a lot less stressful than during the week when I have to coordinate all the aspects of his schedule while I'm there. I guess there are trade offs.
My friend Ryan is going to drop off Finn's glider/rocker that Ryan's mom graciously gave to us (she was cleaning out her basement!) today. We are hoping to run to Wal-mart and pick up Finn's dresser, crib and mattress today, too. I'm not looking forward to putting them together, but am looking forward to having them put together...ha, ha! Oh, and I fixed the vacuum cleaner (I think), so I can finally vacuum Finn's room (there was a lot of scraps left from painting and putting up the border).

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.

I'm with you on the furniture thing. I just do it and don't think about it! :)
