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.

Empty nest

Well, we are roommate-less. The move went very smoothly on Saturday, other than Finn deciding he wanted to wake up at 5:30...which he NEVER does (four hours of sleep made for a very tired mommy). Becky had everything organized and ready to go. It kind of turned into an assembly line: 1. carry things upstairs 2. carry things out to the truck 3. organize and pack the truck. Since #1 required the least amount of outside time, I opped for that one! Then I was nominated to stay at our house so the boys could nap while they unloaded the truck at the apartment (oh, darn...I had the toughest job for sure!). We went over after the boys woke up so we could help and so I could see the new digs. I love it. Kind of makes me miss apartment living...there are a lot of things to be said for it. I just wish Maplewood were a little closer, but it really isn't THAT far. It is so weird that they are gone. It hasn't sunk in yet. When I think about it, I get sad.

Yesterday we spent some time with my mom in the morning. We took Finn to church with us, which is something I do not do. But Jim was tired and I figured we could handle it. As it turned out, church was not full, so we didn't have to worry about germs (other than mommy's because she has a cold!). Finn was a really good boy in church, even though he was super tired and of course, pooped! But it was toward the end, so I just left it. When we saw him later, Austin said, "Finn, Jesus doesn't want you to poop in church!" Then Memere and Grandpa came in the evening. Wow, Finn got to see three of four grandparents in one day! Lucky him...hope he isn't too spoiled.

Today we have EI and some more play time with Memere and Grandpa...and NeNe! No chance he won't be spoiled after today. Oh, well.
