Baby Born 8/8/08 At 8:08;Weighs 8lbs And 8 oz.

[ILS1]

FERGUS FALLS, Minn. - Hailey Jo Hauer was born on the eighth day of the eighth month in 2008 at 8:08 a.m. So it wouldn't make sense for her to weigh anything other than eight pounds, eight ounces.

Lindsey Hauer thought staffers at Lake Region Hospital in Fergus Falls, Minn., were joking when they told her the time of her daughter's birth. Then she got a call from the birthing suite noting Hailey's weight.

Nurse Jenny Harstad joked that she tried to shrink the baby to 18 inches from her actual 19 and a-half inches.

Several hospital staff members said they planned to buy lottery tickets.

this isn't nearly as impressive - but when I was born, there were alot of 8's involved. 8 is my "lucky" number :)

I was born 8/18/58 at 11:18 am
I was 18 inches long
weighed 8 pounds 8 oz
My mom's room number was 818

(my youngest son was born 4/4/88 - more 8's :)

weird thing - 4 1/2 years after I was born, my brother was born
he weighed 8 pounds and 8 oz
he was born at 11:18 am

but on 12/20/62 (6 + 2=8 does that count? lol ha ha)
