Cori Month 1

Our little Cori is one month old!  Right now, she sleeps a lot, eats a lot, and cries a lot.  We assure big brother Luke that she will in fact be more interactive when she gets bigger, like him.  For now, we enjoy all the firsts and soak in every little cuddle.  
Stats: 
Weight:  8 pounds 5 oz
Length: 21 inches
Sleeping/Eating:  Every 3 hours, like clock work
Clothing/ Diapers:  Size Newborn

This sweet babe met a lot of people in her first month of life! 
Second Cousin, Caleb, Honey, Cori, Luke (All of Honey's Great Grand's)
Honey dropped by for some hugs:
Granna and Pops came up for Labor Day weekend










Pops certainly lights up when he holds his Cori.
Aunt Melody came up
***Memaw, Granddaddy and Aunt Jamie also came to visit... I still need to obtain their pictures, so stay tuned for an update!!!

A picture of my girl all sprawled out... look at her tiny legs because next month, BAM, they get big!
We had a little set back at 3 weeks... Cori's Pedi thought she had hip dysplasia so we had to go for an ultrasound at Cook Childrens Hospital to confirm the hip pops.  Granna came back up to help me get through a very rough week of dreading that and feeding issues.  The technician did the ultrasound and said Cori had "beautiful hips" and man, the tears flowed.  We are so thankful we avoided months of wearing a brace to reset her bones.  All the while, I was praying God hold his child-- we would have trusted Him with either outcome, but so thankful for Cori that she is healthy.  Thank you Granna for rescuing me!
Dear Cori, You have come into our wonderful family and completed us so perfectly.  Your brother adores you, your Daddy's eyes light up when he see's you, and your Momma can't get enough of your sweet kisses.  We are so thankful for you and they joy you bring us.  We look forward to watching you grow and knowing you more.  I love you.
