Grayson Hayes Zornes was born at 12:02 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2024. The city's White Rose Drop had happened minutes before but we're pretty sure he did not care that he missed the festivities.

This little boy weighed 6 pounds, 8 ounces, and was 20 inches long. His mom Casey Zornes is tired but "doing well," the hospital says.

Two more babies were delivered within the first hour of the New Year at WellSpan York Hospital.
