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.

Selfish indulgence

A few weeks ago, Jess asked me which photo of Finn and me from all the photo sessions was my favorite. So, I forced myself (it was REALLY hard to do I'm sure!) to look through all of Finn's wonderful photos again and ended up finding one of the two of us from each session that I just loved. I thought I'd share them with you. Plus, it is fun to see the progression in our relationship - from him needing me for everything to him just needing a kiss!

It is probably obvious, but from left to right; 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year. We still haven't decided when we will do our next photo session. If Finn had been full term, we would do 18 months, but I'd like pictures of when he LOOKS like he is one...you know that wobbly "I can barely stand by myself" kind of picture. I'm thinking by the time he is 18 months, we won't be able to keep up with him!

Finn and I actually have a quiet day "planned" for today, which means nothing is planned! Doesn't happen too often. Kind of nice, though. I'm hoping to get outside and work on the ice on the sidewalk. We have one spot where the melting water doesn't have anywhere to go, so it just melts and freezes into an icy lake...makes it hard to walk to the car while carrying a baby in a car seat!

Jim is gone from Sunday to Friday next week. If anybody wants to do something (with Finn and me obviously) any of the week nights, let me know!

Oh and can I just say, the McDonald's Filet 'O Fish commercial is back and you either love it or hate it. I LOVE it AND the actual Filet 'O Fish sandwiches! I just had one for lunch today. "Give me back that Filet-O-Fish. Give me that fish." So catchy. I think it borders on the edge of complete annoyance, but doesn't quite cross it. You gotta love marketing people!

awww....Those are some awesome images....not because of the photographer but because of the great bond between the two of you. So you never posted which one was your favorite!

I couldn't remember which one I told you I liked best, but I checked my email and I picked...the 3 month one!
