Thanks to cousin Anne Roman for this breaking story!
Cory and Jessica Roman Cross welcomed a baby boy at
2:38 a.m. on July 7, 2015 at Greater Baltimore Medical Center in Towson, MD, the hospital where Jess works as a nurse in the Oncology Unit. The name chosen for him was Chance Michael Cross.
To their credit, Jess
and Cory did not want to know whether their new baby was a boy or girl,
stating that there are few happy surprises in life and they wanted the
baby's sex to be one such revelation. A surprise he was, arriving about two
weeks early (surely taking after the Cross family, for, as many of
you know, the Romans are not known for being early).
Chance weighed in at 8
lbs. and was 21 inches long.
If you are wondering about the baby's name,
here's the story. Last fall, Jess and Cory went to Las Vegas to hear
their favorite band, Phish. They arrived back home with a bonus and the
lucky little guy was named Chance since he was conceived in Las Vegas and
born on 7/7.
This is the first child for Jess and Cory, who were married one year ago. Jess's dad is Fieg cousin Mark Roman. Mark's two other grandchildren are his son Robert's daughters Emily and Lydia.
Below is a picture from the hospital and his one-week-old photo in the froggie outfit.
Our very best to the family!
