Today was a little tough with feeding. Finn did well this morning, but wouldn't really eat during our play date, so by the time we got home, he was in meltdown mode. I decided to just give him a bottle and put him to bed instead of trying to get him to nurse, too. Hopefully he will nurse well tonight after a good long nap. I'm doing all the tricks I've been told to do and I don't feel like I'm getting any more milk. I'm not sure how long it should take to see results. So, we'll see, I guess. Oh, I have a wonderful recipe for "Lactation Boosting Cookies" if anybody is interested! So yummy!

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.

Boy meets boy
Finn FINALLY has a friend that isn't a girl. I mean, don't get me wrong, he loves his girl-friends and one day I'm sure they will all break his heart, but a guy needs other guys!
This was Finn and Dane's first play date. (Dane is the son of our friends Darren and Nicki, who is Jim's coworker.) The boys were fast friends, as you can kind of tell they were already holding hands in this picture! They were pretty comparable in size (Dane was born in May), but Dane was a little bigger. Oh, well. Hopefully Finn will catch up one day or at least be able to stick up for himself.
