They're less than two days old, but these two baby girls have already made headlines thanks to their highly unusual birth dates and times. Both Hazel Grace of Cleveland, Ohio, and Quincy Kessler of Billings, Montana, were welcomed into this world on Saturday, December 13th at 10:11 a.m. So what's the big deal? Try writing their birth times and dates in short form and you'll see both girls were born at 10:11 a.m. on 12/13/14, making for a perfectly linear sequence of digits. Needless to say, we doubt their parents will ever forget their exact birth dates and times!

In Billings, Montana, proud parents Trenton and Melinda Kessler were celebrating the arrival of their second daughter, Quincy. In Cleveland, Ohio, Leisha Campbell and Shawn Zimmerman gushed over the latest addition to their family, Hazel Grace, now the youngest of four girls.
In a statement, Campbell said that, while she knew her daughter Hazel would be born on December 13th, she never could have predicted that she'd arrive at 10:11 a.m. She says they're interpreting the peculiar date and time as a lucky sign. In fact, friends and family members are encouraging them to play the lottery!
But we're sure that, as far as these parents are concerned, they already won the lottery with the arrival of their babies.
Granted, a baby is born every 8 seconds in the United States, but what are the odds of not one but two baby girls having such a peculiar birth date and time? Pretty slim. Congrats to both families!
