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.

Containing output

We used the last of Finn's size 1-2 diapers last night so he is officially now wearing size 2. I wonder how many 6 month olds wear a size 2 diaper? Probably not too many. Oh, well. I had been putting him in size 2 at night for the extra coverage and didn't last night (he was too tired to change him so I just put him to bed with a 1-2 on). Big mistake. He woke up soaked through. Poor guy. Maybe the bigger size will contain his output a little better. Hopefully we don't have to worry about leaking any more...well until we need to transition to the next size, I guess!

Finn is currently in 3-6 month clothes, for the most part. He is able to still wear size 3 pants because he is short for his age and if I put the waist band under his big belly, his waist is actually small! I got 6-9 month long sleeve onsies for layering and they are none too big, though. I'm guessing I'm going to have to switch clothes out again soon (a never ending task, I guess!).

We are off shortly to Aunt Angie's so we can chat and Austin can play. Then Finn has Incredible Infant ECFE this afternoon. This is a different class that the one we tried earlier in the fall. There are only three or four families at this one, so I'm hoping we can do this with little risk to Finn's health. I know the teacher, so she said to just come and test it out. Then we'll see, I guess. If it doesn't work out, we still have three more sessions of the Preemie Class, so at least we can get out of the house for them!
