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.

First Holy Communion

On Sunday, my little princess and goddaughter, Emma, had her First Holy Communion at St. Raphael's in Crystal. She looked picture perfect and did a great job. I can't believe our little girl is old enough to have her first communion already. Where does the time go.
Twenty-two First Communion participants
Proud godparents
Sassy girl after all was done.
Mother and daughter
Personalized veil
It was probably selfish (or self-centered) of me, but I never had a veil for my first communion (let alone a beautiful dress like hers!), so I wanted her to have one. I was happy to see that all but one girl had a veil so she fit right in (but I bet she was the only one with her name on hers!0!

   
As any good godmother worth her weight in gold would, I made Emma's cake. Of course, taking Korri to Urgent Care on Friday put a big damper on my cake making/decorating schedule. But Korri helped solve that by getting up really early Saturday...I'm sure she knew I need to get up and get started! Yes again, (I'm sure you are getting sick of the broken record that I am) my mom saved the day by taking care of everything while I focused on the cake all day Saturday. I finally text Lorry around 11pm with this text: Cake=done :) Based on the feedback, I think it was a success. I wonder what it would take to make enough cakes to stay home again and still have money come in. Hmmm...
