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.

Batting 1,000

Thursday, we had our weekly ECFE park play date at North Mississippi Regional park. Finn gets a little frustrated because he wants to play with the big kids and can't really maneuver that equipment yet. After the park, we went over to visit Stacey and Dillon. Finn had a blast. I love that he plays so well independently.

Thurs we found out that Kristine was/is having a little difficulty with her pregnancy (I hope you don't mind me sharing, Kristine!). After a precautionary doctor visit before leaving town for the weekend, they found out she was dilated to a 1, having occasional contractions and was put on modified bed rest. Yuck! Bed rest is pretty bad. So, she was able to move Becky's bachelorette party weekend closer to home so she could still go. My whole heart just hurts for her. I SO wanted her pregnancy to be different than both of mine were. She is 31 weeks and after a check today, hadn't progressed any, which is good news. She will stay on modified bed rest at least for 2 to 3 more weeks. Here's hoping for 34 weeks (and well beyond, if possible). So much for a history of pre-term labor NOT being hereditary. We are now 4 for 4 in our family (good for a sports record, bad for having early babies!). Boo!

Friday morning, Finn was thrilled when Austin got him up in the morning! Becky had an appt to practice for her wedding hair do, so we got to have Austin while she did that. And they were dressed like twins:
The boys ended up playing outside with the water hose...who knew something so simple could be so much fun. In the evening, we got all dressed up and went to the wedding reception of Jim's cousin, CJ.

Of course, there isn't a picture of me (I'm used to it by now). It was very near our house, but an area that we hadn't been in before. Very cute. Finn even got to "shake his booty" with NeNe before we left.

There is so much more to catch you up on about the rest of the weekend, but I'll blog about it tomorrow. Too much for one post!
