Esther Giannelli was born on January 28, 2010.  She weighed 8lbs 9oz (doesn’t look it!).  Her new family is now complete with four girls and four boys.  All of her brother and sisters are so excited to have this new addition to their family.  One thing mommy doesn’t have to worry about is the lack of babysitters!  She is definitely going to be spoiled!

This sweet little boy was born on November 10, 2009 at 7:26pm.  He weighed 8lbs 10oz and was 21.3in long.  His mom and dad said that at only 11 days old he rolled over from his stomach to his back!  He also gained all of his weight back only a week after he was born.  He is already growing fast!

It’s that time of year again!  Gamecock football is on a roll!  Anyone that knows Dr. Martin knows he is a huge fan of USC football and is faithful to his alma mater.  The office loves to go to games, cook out, and have a great time!  Pictured to the left is Jan Martin, Dr. Martin, Karla Winningham, and Martha Green, PA-C.  The second photo is Martha Green with her husband, Jody, and her two sons, Garrett and Gage.

This is Miss Tandy Rayne Nelson.  She was born on September 16, 2009.  She is already a little princess!  She takes after her mommy!

Grantham Thomas Martin was born on August 7, 2009 at 5:29 PM.  He weighed 7lbs 15oz and was 20.5 inches long.  He is Dr. Martin’s first grandchild!  We are all very excited for Dr. Martin and his family. 

Written by Violet’s mother:

Violet Aveline McNamara was born on July 30th, 2009 at 11:09 pm.  She was 7 lbs 7 oz and 20 inches long.  It was an amazing birth.  Kevin and I are very grateful for Dr. Martin and the nurses at Trident.  Both labor and the actual birth were completely different experiences than my first child, Duncan.  Dr. Martin was instrumental in making the hospital environment relaxed and did everything he could to make the experience one that I had been working toward for months.  His expertise, kindness, and patience combined with the Hypnobabies (www.hypnobabies.com) program that I studied in preparation for birth provided an almost painless experience without an epidural or pain medication.  Again, Violet, Kevin and I cannot thank Dr. Martin enough for our experience!

Chloe Ava Snodgrass was born on July 20, 2009.  She is already growing so fast!
