It’s a girl! Amanda and Jared Christopher are the proud parents of a daughter, Riley Dawn, the first baby born in St. Francois County in 2025. Riley was born at Parkland Health Center in Farmington on January 2, 2025, at 12:39 p.m., weighing 6 pounds, 8 ounces and measuring 19 inches long. Dr. Joan Azoury was the delivering physician. Riley will make her home in Park Hills with her parents and three big sisters.
As the first baby born in the new year, the childbirth center team presented the Christopher family with a gift basket complete with diapers, blankets, infant toys, bath essentials, books, and more, compliments of Parkland Health Center.
