Welcome Baby Cory!!

My niece Katie and her boyfriend Cory had their baby yesterday (10/1). They didn't find out the sex, so we were all excited to hear she had a little baby boy and they named him Cory James (after his daddy). He weighed 9lbs 10 oz and was 20 1/4 inches long. He is sooo adorable!!! I got to meet him today.

We had an appt at the perinatal center on Fri (9/28). Everything looks good so far. I'll be 22 weeks on Wed. The babies were really active during our ultrasound and being so cute. Everytime she would try to get a measurement on one, you would see a foot or a hand or another head pop in. They are estimated to weigh about 140z, 140z, and 15oz (A, B, C) and their heartbeats were all strong (A-147 bpm, B-150 bpm, and C-143 bpm). The ultrasound tech found out the sexes, but we held strong and didn't peek. Jim was trying to, but I wouldn't let him! We go back to see Dr. Moore on Wed. I'm now starting to feel them kicking at the same time, so that is kind of neat to feel it in all different places.

Baby A

Baby B - Hi everyone!!!!

Baby C - Not too great of pics of Baby C this time, but there is a good one of the foot.
Bedrest is going great so far....I'm getting lots of extra rest and watching lots of TV :) Jim is still making home improvements. My brother Billy is going to come over this week and help us out with some stuff we need done.
We went to my cousin Mary Jo's wedding this weekend in Jeff City. It was great to see a lot of the family and the wedding was beautiful, reception fun. I couldn't dance or drink, but I think Alli had enough fun dancing for me. She was so funny! We couldn't keep her off the dance floor (and she loved the edible center pieces).


We also had her pictures taken with the Sesame Street background since she is such an Elmo freak! They turned out pretty cute :) I think she would be about 22.5 mos here.

Jim and Chrissy,
This is Kelly Ragan. I'm a friend of Amy, Angela, and Katie. Ang told me about your website and I love following along! I'm a nursing student at UMSL and peaking in on your story makes my OB class so much more interesting. Thanks for sharing your lives.
