Welcome Home, and Special Thanks

We brought our beautiful daughter home just a few minutes ago and the house just feels so much more special. Charlotte has been such a great little girl over the past two days, and we feel sooooo lucky to be her parents. The experience at the hospital couldn't have been better. From the minute the Doc sent us from his office to the delivery room, we were treated first class. Doctor Pataki is a wonderful OB and we can't thank him enough for everything over the past 39 weeks. His sense of humor, straight forward demeanor, and professionalism is one of a kind. Our nurse Donna in the delivery room was the best. We saw her two weeks ago when we had some major false labor, and when we found out she was going to be with us during the birth of our baby, we were so thankful. What a great lady! Then there is Renee Mason. She's our friend who happens to work in L&D at St. Agnes and is Mason's (Mason & Friends) Daughter-in-law. We also owe our baby's name to her too (her daughter is named Charlotte). She was off Wednesday but was in the hospital attending a meeting. When she heard Rebecca was delivering, she ran upstairs and came in the room just as were were getting ready to push. She stayed through her lunch to help out and between she and Donna, our little princess couldn't have been in better hands. She came and visited us several times the next two days to make sure we were okay, and even brought us a VERY special dinner on our second night. Renee, your generosity and thoughtfulness will never be forgotten. We can't thank you enough for being such a big part of the birth of our little princess.
