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.

Mother's helper

I forgot to mention that poor baby girl got her 4 month vaccinations yesterday. She got one orally and two shots. She was a trooper. She cried so hard she stopped breathing right away, but as soon as daddy gave her the Soothie and mommy picked her up, she stopped crying. But then kept catching her breath for a while afterwards. I feel so bad when she gets them because she doesn't know what's coming until it hurts! Also, a HUGE thank you to Sasha and aunt Kelsie for watching Finn while we went to Korri's appt. He gets so darn bored, so it was nice knowing he was having a blast with you two instead!

Sasha left yesterday. We are all so sad. It was so great and effortless to have her here. Not to mention, I'm pretty sure I need a Mother's Helper! It was awesome to have another adult around to help with the child I wasn't attending to (okay, that mainly means, somebody to hold Korri!). Sasha was great with her, but I'd bet her left arm is going to be sore for a few days! Korri might not weigh a lot, but 12 lbs feels heavy when you're holding it for hours on end and aren't used to doing it every day! I know Finn will miss all the extra special attention, too. Thanks for the wonderful visit, Sasha. We all love you so much :)
