Life and Times of Christian

Hello Dear Friends,

Sorry it has been a while since I have posted anything on this site. It is safe to say that parenthood is keeping both Phillip and I very busy.

I wanted to give a quick update on Christian. He is great! He is growing up so fast and is always all smiles.

I wanted to include a link for you to see pictures of him on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/59887124@N02/

Enjoy and I promise to post again soon.

Christian Francois Gagnon

I would like to introduce you to Christian Francois Gagnon. He was born on Feb 17th at 12:43a. He was 8.13 lbs and 21 in long.

His birth was absolutely perfect. We went to the hospital at 7:30a on Feb 16th and we were granted the approval to birth him naturally, as his doctor felt that his vital stats were strong enough to move forward with our birth plan. We labored for a total of 16 hours (surrounded by Barton and Gagnon family members) and he came into the world healthy and perfect.

Having spent the last few days with this precious little man, I can honestly say that he is a calm and relaxed little soul. He is very easy going and a big fan of a
good nap.

I promise to post more pictures and update with status updates. For now, I would just like to introduce you to the newest addition to the Gagnon family.

Thanks,
Beth and Phill

Baby Christian



With our due date having come and gone, Phillip and I now get to attend regular ultrasound appointments. The video above is compliments of todays visit. Christian came back with all A+ scores for his fluid, heart rate, practice breathing, size and placement. He seems to be doing just fine and will be joining us here soon.

The current plan is to induce on Friday at 3a (41 weeks) if he does not join us on his own. This will have given him an extra week but will keep him from growing too big to be able to birth naturally (as he is already measuring at 8 to 9 pounds). With the being said, Phillip and I will be proud parents by end of day Friday. My doctor today seems to think that he will join us on his own, as his words were "I am not really sure what is holding this kid in there". I am currently 3 cm dilated and he is placed very low.

With the respect to the video, you are looking at his head and the movement that you see later in the video is his arm/hand moving by his mouth. Pretty good looking kid... if I do say so myself.

Real-Time Updates!

Hello Everyone-

As we are getting closer to Christian's arrival, more and more people are asking us to keep them up to date on the actual birth. In order to make sure that we don't forget anyone (and that we don't end up with a $1,000 text bill at the end of the month) we are inviting our friends and family to join me on Twitter! I will be posting as many updates (text, pictures, video) as possible once starts going into Beth goes into labor. You can download Twitter for your smart phone, or just follow me on the Twitter website.

My Twitter profile name is @phillipgagnon. You can also have a look at the page directly by going to http://www.twitter.com/phillipgagnon
