Born On A Sled

Babies are notorious for not waiting for a good moment to be born, but Shirley Kim Bonanni's baby may have picked the most uncomfortable moment - on a sled on a snowy hill with the temperature a frigid 3 degrees.
Bonanni woke up with contractions early Wednesday morning, just as the city of Philadelphia was blanketed with a snow storm that dumped nearly 14 inches of snow on the city.
"We thought we had plenty of time to go to the hospital," Bonanni told local ABC affiliate WPVI, noting her contractions were, at first, nearly 10 minutes apart.
While Bonanni showered and got ready to drive to the hospital, her husband, Fabian Bonnani, called his parents to watch the couple's son, 2-year-old Logan, and began the process of getting the family's car as far up their street as he could.
