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.

He's baaaack!

From all the accounts I've been told, Finn had the time of his life last week. And was a super good boy. I don't think he had any home sickness other than asking where we were a lot...which he does every day when Jim is at work anyway. I did okay with him being gone until about Thursday. I really missed him Thursday afternoon and couldn't wait to give him a hug and kiss.

Korri and I had a good first half of the week and a terrible second half. She was happy and took good naps Monday and Tuesday, but Wednesday and Thursday, she just screamed all the time. It is so frustrating and tiring for me. We left before Noon on Friday for Oville, so at least I had help with Korri for part of Friday and over the weekend. That's what grandmas are for, right? Console screaming children when mom can't do it any more?!?!

We got to Oville just in time for patio time...or a little late, but still manage to relax a little. Lynn didn't tell Finn we were coming, so when he saw our car, he started freaking out and jumping around. He was so excited to see us, but had to show us everything and tell us who Nana and Papa were...like they are his people! So cute. Then on Saturday, Jim, John and Papa played golf while the kids, Lynn and I visited Granny. Oh, and our new double stroller arrived during the week, so we were finally able to use it for the first time on the way up to Granny's. LOVE it! Then we decided to go to uncle John's baseball game, even though it wasn't in Oville.


And upon Finn's incessant chanting...they won! It was a lot of fun for all of us. We were planning on leaving after the game, but both Jim and I were so tired, we decided to stay and leave this morning instead.

It was great to see Nana and Papa, even though it felt like we just got to see them for a minute. They got to meet Korri, which was great. Lynn obviously took about a million pictures, but I forgot my portable hard drive, so we'll have to wait until she comes here to get them. Darn!
