I'm excited for two new activities coming up this spring. Upon the amazing comment/suggestion from my friend Becky, I signed Finn up for Tumbling class! It meets on Mondays at 4:30 at a neighborhood Rec Center and starts in two weeks (4/9...Austin's birthday). The description says he will learn basic tumbling skills like somersaults, headstands and bridges and the focus is on balance, coordination and body awareness. All things that will be good for Finn, even though I have low expectations for him actually DOING most of these things. It is a parent-participation class, so one of us will be "helping" him. Should be fun for all of us.
The second activity I signed Finn up is for T-Ball!! I'm really excited for this one. Austin did a similar class when he was three, so I can't wait for Finn to experience it as well. It is on Tuesdays at 5:30 at the field down the street but doesn't start until May 15 (Dillon's birthday!). It is also a parent-participation class. Jim said he couldn't find a glove that fit Finn last time they went shopping, so hopefully we can find something. At this age, they obviously don't play a game, but rather focusing on fundamental skill development and learning to be part of a team.
On a side note, I think it is time to leave diapers behind for Finn and transition to pull-ups for nap and night. I didn't really "get" the point of pull-ups, but since he only needs them for sleeping, it would make it easier.

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.
