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.

Oh my!

Let's see...what's been going on since Sunday? A ton...which is why I haven't had time to blog. Shame on me. Jim left early Monday morning for his business trip and we had our last Preemie class of the spring. It is so hard that classes aren't offered during the summer. After Preemie class, NeNe came over to watch Finn and I took Korri to her chiropractor appointment. Let's just say heading THROUGH North Mpls the day after a massive tornado went through was NOT a smart or safe idea! I should have rescheduled and was so thankful Finn was not in the car with us. Overall, the appointment went well. He adjusted her in two spots and we had a follow up appointment on Thursday. I don't know if it is helping, but I'm willing to try. He said after 4 sessions or so, if she isn't better, he can't really help her. So at least I know we won't be going forever and not seeing results anyway (which is one of Jim's many complains about chiropractors). I'm of the mind set...we'll see! No major changes yet. Monday night, the kids and I went over to aunt Becca's for dinner. Finn, of course, was super excited to spend some time with them and I really appreciated the help with Korri, especially since I've been battling a headache for several days.

Tuesday, the kids and I went to North Mpls Regional Park. Okay, heading in that direction for the second day in a row was probably not smart, but I honestly thought they would have things cleared up a little more than they apparently had. Oops. All the exits off 94 were stilled closed, so I had to go THROUGH the destruction again (although far less destruction in this area than on Monday) to get to the park! And then it was a little too cold to stay and play very long, but Finn had a lot of fun. It was so good to see him actually playing on the equipment. Last fall he wasn't really able to get around or play on the stuff.  His favorite parts of the park: the bicycle racks and the paint on the trail! After the park, Stacey came over for a much needed visit. It was so good to catch up. Unfortunately, Korri slept the entire time she was here! Oops...hopefully next time she will at least be able to see her. In the evening, auntie Kristine came over to baby sit us, which was a nice break. Korri likes sleeping on Kristine's belly shelf ;)
