HERMITAGE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Gayla and Ryan Thompson's son made his grand entrance into the world on I-440.
The baby weighing 7 lbs. 3 oz. was born at 8:56 a.m. on June 16 in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
"The whole thing happened pretty quickly," said Ryan Thompson. "I didn't have time to think of anything."
The couple dropped their older child off at daycare in Mt. Juliet before making the trek downtown to Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
"We thought from there maybe 20 minutes with traffic to Vanderbilt," said Gayla Thompson. "We thought we had plenty of time considering the contractions."
