It was a baby boom of sorts for the Eickhoff family. A baby born every year since 2006, two in 2009, each with different personalities but with one thing in common: All were born at the Sleepy Eye Medical Center. Jaden was the first, born in February of 2006 to Robyn & Dean Walter of rural Clements, followed just over a year later by Shayna, daughter of Dawn & Randy Sellner of Sleepy Eye. Jaelynn, the biggest of all the babies, was born not even a year after Shayna and is the daughter of Jamie & Aaron Schauman of Sleepy Eye. Two thousand and nine brought the birth of Alexis, daughter of Robyn & Dean, in March and Jace, daughter of Jamie & Aaron in August. Tyler, the youngest, was born in March of this year to Dawn & Randy. Grandparents are Bob & Joleen Eickhoff of Sleepy Eye. "The nurses and doctors at the Sleepy Eye Medical Center were wonderful. They had a way of making you feel calm & relaxed," said Dawn. "I remember when I was in the room with Jamie when she was having Jaelynn. Marietta Ludewig was our nurse, and she was my nurse when I had Jamie at the Sleepy Eye Hospital. That was pretty neat," said Joleen. The families continue to utilize the Sleepy Eye Medical Center for their healthcare needs. "Jaden loves coming to the doctor with me. He calls Dr. Dhaliwal 'Dr. Wally.' He just loves her," said Robyn. "We all really like our experiences with the Sleepy Eye Medical Center. We really feel like the doctors genuinely care about the patients and their families," said Jamie.
