Welcome baby boy

We welcomed our boy into the world on Aug 4th at 8:43 pm. Maddox Keevin Corrigan was 7 lb, 14 oz and 21 inches long. He came into the world suddenly ~ not sure he was totally prepared! Mom and babykins both survived some complications, including lack of oxygen and blood loss. But all ended sweetly with both of us on the mend and doing great now two weeks later. I thank you Jesus for watching over us and protecting us during those uncertain moments.

Older sisters Marin & Maddie are adoring their baby brother Max. "Can I hold him", "Can I touch him", "Can I tell him"... They are in love, as we all are. He is a sweet and calm baby who has almost no crying (except for diaper changes, WATCH OUT he might pee on you to get revenge... aaah boys, a whole new world).

We are adjusting to being a family of five, with the help of my mom who has come twice to assist and love on the kids. Thank you mom!!

God has blessed us, and we thank Him for the gift of our sweet Max.

So enjoy the pictures!




























PS. Happy 2nd birthday Madeline! We are officially celebrating late this year with a party in September, but we did have a mini-celebration on her big day this week!
