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.

New digs

Last night, I got to see Stacey and Dillon's new house! It is super cute, even though there isn't much moved/unpacked quite yet! We took one full load of my van and her car over and unloaded it and started unpacking the kitchen (Dillon needed a bowl for cereal this morning!) and Dillon's room (Dillon needed a bed to sleep on, go figure!). It is very easy to get to and seems like a very nice, quiet neighborhood. Part of me is jealous that it is a townhouse...no mowing, no shoveling, no maintenence, etc. Congratulations on your very first "big girl" place, Stacey! I'm really proud of you. Now you just need some time to enjoy it.

While I was gone, Jim and the kids had a great time. Gee, maybe I should leave more often! They played outside in the newly mowed yard and then they made brownies...

Something I would not have thought of but what a great family activity. And yes, they are baking on the floor, but it was washed yesterday. Jim warned me when I got home that the floor might be slippery since Korri poured out the oil. Oops! Guess it needs to be washed again. Ha!

While I was away, Jim and Finn had this conversation...

Jim: Are you the cutest thing ever invented Finnegan?
Finn: No.
Jim: What is?
Finn: Korri.

If that doesn't melt your heart, you aren't human or don't have a heart. Man, I love that kid!

The other day he and Jim were watching the Olympics and Jim text me, "Finn is running around chanting "USA" but he wants to play soccer ball in the olympics for Turkey." Go figure that one!
