Jan. 14 was a special day for Atlanta Falcons guard Andy Levitre. Not only did the Falcons defeat the Seattle Seahawks to advance to the NFC Championship, but he and his wife, Katie, welcomed a baby girl into the world.

Katie went into labor before the game started, and sat through it until the end.

"I didn't know about this until after the game when I was walking off the field and one of the football ops guys told me that she was in labor," Levitre told Atlanta's FOX 5. "So I went, showered up, came outside, we went home for like an hour, went to the hospital, and she gave birth."
