Saint Mary's is ringing in 2026 with the year’s first bundle of joy. Weighing 7 pounds and 4 ounces and measuring 19 ½ inches, Violet was born to Breanna and Alex, Thursday, Jan. 1, at 12:48 a.m. Proud parents Breanna and Alex shared, “We were not expecting a New Year’s baby, but we couldn’t be more excited.” 

Christen Peck, Women’s and Children’s Director at Saint Mary’s, added, “We have a remarkable team of clinical and support staff who are dedicated to cultivating a safe, welcoming and comfortable environment for mothers and their babies. Helping our community’s families welcome their newest additions is one of our greatest privileges.”  

Looking ahead, Saint Mary’s is investing in the future of women’s care in the River Valley to continue supporting families for generations to come.
