The girls were born on November 16th, 2007, 16 weeks early. Mallory Kate – 1 lb 8 oz, Evan Reese – 1 lb 1 oz, and Kelby Grace – 1 lb 5 oz. Upon their delivery, Mallory and Kelby were transferred to St. David’s South and were doing fairly well considering the circumstances. Our little Evan Reese was a fighter, but she had a lot of problems and she was with us for about 5 hours. We love you Evan and we miss you everyday, but we know we’ll see you again one day. Mallory and Kelby both went through a lot in their 105 day stay in the hospital, from heart surgeries, to brain bleeds, to infections. Many prayers were answered and we thank God everyday for everything He has done for them. Today they are perfectly healthy and growing bigger and stronger everyday. We started this blog to keep everybody updated on their progress. You can scroll down to the bottom of the page for a slideshow from the NICU days.

Join Team Cheatham Girls

It is that time of year again! The March of Dimes March for Babies walk is May 9th here in Austin. After walking last year we agreed that this will be something we make a point to do every year. The March of Dimes is such an amazing organization. We could tell you so many stories of how God has used them to make a difference in so many lives. It would be great to have you walk with us and if you want to donate to our team even better. We will have Daddy post a link later of how to sign up to walk with us in May. The walk is only 3.2 miles through downtown. It is so much fun and we loved it last year. So quick before you forget, grab your calendar, mark Mother's Day weekend as AUSTIN- March for Babies with the Cheatham Girls. - Hugs and Kisses to all! Mallory & Kelby
