Say "Hello" to Violet Beattie, the First New Year's Baby of Atlanta Medical Center

Patch Pic of the Day

When you want to make a grand entrance, you want to ensure everyone notices and that there are no distractions.

Perhaps that's why Violet Beattie, decided to make her entrance into the world on Jan. 2 — fashionably late — instead of Jan. 1 at Atlanta Medical Center, where she was born.

The hospital and parents, Kate Modolo and Ross Beattie of Decatur, welcomed Violet as its first baby of 2014 on Jan. 2 at 2:55 a.m.

She weighed 9 pounds and 5.5 ounces. Happy Birthday and Happy New Year!
