by Mikaya ThurmondFor tens of thousands of babies born around the world, 12- 12-12 will be a birthday unlike any other... at least for the next one-hundred years. One Hixson family found a way to get even more 12's associated with their son's birthday.It's called a palindrome, meaning the the date reads the same both backwards and forwards. Erlanger hospital tells us they had one special baby born precisely on 12-12-12.. at 12:12 pm.Tyler Lawson Ceraolo may only be a couple of hours old, but you can probably guess what number he'll want on the back of his first jersey. His birthday is 12/12/12. His parents say he was due on the 14th, but they planned to induce on this date because they thought it'd be cool.His mother, Corrie Ceraolo, says "we just thought it'd be neat because it's not something that's going to happen very often." -- But it's what they didn't plan... That makes this story so unique. Tyler's dad works as a life force paramedic at Erlanger hospital -- so he was able to help with the delivery. Brian Ceraolo "delivered him then I let Corrie hold him. When I took him over to the table and they were cleaning him up and stuff. They took measurements and told us he was born at 12:12pm."The family says they've heard from friends who are skeptical of the exact 12:12 pm time and to those people, they have this to say. "Most of the time when we tell people he was born at 12:12 on 12/12/12 they don't believe us. But we're honestly telling the truth... We have witnesses"During the contractions, Corrie says she wasn't watching the clock. At 7 pounds and 9 ounces, Tyler Lawson Sorelo is the third child for the family.Tyler's dad has delivered several babies before as a paramedic and he says was even more shocked to find out that his son was indeed his twelfth birth! "I was as shocked at that as I was when I realized that he was born at 12-12."As of right now, Erlanger has had 17 births today, but of course those numbers won't be final -- until the very last minute.
