The baby girl was born at 5:44 a.m., a healthy 5 pounds, 12 ounces, measuring 18 3/4 inches long, according to Laddison
As the first baby born at NMC in 2021, Amelia was presented a hand-made wooden rocking horse, crafted by Natural Hardwoods of Highgate Center and a colorful quilt gifted by the Franklin County Quilters Guild.
