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.

Drool Beard Thomas

Drool Beard Thomas strikes again; the most feared pirate of the seas:
Okay, she's not really a pirate, but can be feared at times! She often has bubbles on her chin and we call it her "drool beard." I think it sounds like a pirates name! Maybe I've just lost my mind ;)

Korri is only getting up once a night to eat! I actually have been getting her up when I wake up halfway through the night. I don't think it is good for my milk supply to go more than 8 hours right now (I'm probably over thinking, but I don't want to have happen now what happened with Finn!). So she usually eats around 2 or 3 and than again around 6am! I'll take it. Once she goes to sleep, she is a good sleeper. But man, does she fight going to sleep! Can't remember if I mentioned that she sucks her index finger:
But for the most part, she doesn't use the pacifier at night and I think she only uses it during the day to go to sleep. And that is because it makes life easier on me. I'm glad we have it for a tool, but I'm also glad she isn't 100% glued to it either. Now, if I could just find a way for it to stay in while in the car, we'd all be happier!

She smiles a LOT, especially in the mornings and during her diaper/clothes changes. She often looks like she is going to laugh, but has a hard time getting sound out. She coos, but we never know if it will turn into crying. I just love seeing her grow and develop. She has amazing head and neck control and can even sit upright on your lap for a few moments unassisted (don't worry, she is far from actually sitting!). I think she would be rolling over from back to tummy if she was on her back more often. She has only rolled from tummy to back three or four times, but CAN do it when she gets her arms in the right position.
