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.

Eye lashes that won't quit

Finn definitely takes after his daddy at least in one respect...his eye lashes! In the last couple of days, they have gotten so long and now they actually curl up! For a long time, he didn't have any eye lashes and then he had them, but they were transparent and you couldn't really see them. Not any longer! I think he will give Austin a run for his money in the eye lash department!

Happy 30th birthday to daddy one day late (I didn't have time to post yesterday). We've been busy. Mommy stayed up until midnight on Thursday night to wish daddy happy birthday (this is a HUGE thing for mommy to do!). Jim's cousins from North Dakota, Dave and Matt, stopped by to play with Finn for a while. It was good to see them and catch up. Then Stacey and auntie Kristine came by and spent the afternoon (running to the store with mommy to get daddy's birthday present!). I never wait until the last minute, but I guess things change when you have a baby and he can't go out! Uncle John stopped by on his way from the airport and we (John, Kristine, Finn and mommy) sang "Happy birthday" to daddy and had Red Velvet Cake (Yum-O!). Jim's birthday was pretty low key, but that is what he said he wanted.

Today, mommy's cousin Lauren came for a while in the morning, which was SO nice because we haven't seen much of her lately. She is a senior at the U of M, so she has been busy. Then auntie NaeNae and Nick came by and then auntie Kristine came back in the evening! It is a good thing that we like visitors!

Oh, my car got broken into today, too...in the middle of the afternoon in our driveway! Jim got home from running errands around 1pm and it was fine and when he walked out to his car around 3pm to grab a few things, my passenger window was broken in and my auto navigation system was stolen. Of course, no auto glass places are open on a Saturday afternoon, so we pulled my car into the garage and will have to file a police report and take it to get fixed on Tuesday. I just hate stuff like this...so needless and unnecessary. Oh, well...in the big perspective of things, it could have been much worse.
