Puget Sound's first baby of the New Year was born at Overlake Hospital Childbirth Center in Bellevue, a hospital official said.
Ester and Simon Shin of Bothell greeted the birth of Noah, their first child, at 12:07 a.m. Tuesday, a hospital spokeswoman said. The baby weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces, she said. Both the baby and mother were doing well after a long labor, she said.
Every New Year's Eve, hospitals from Everett to Tacoma keep tabs on which one will have the first baby born at or after midnight. The hospitals give the first baby's family a gift basket to mark the arrival.
