She said she was expecting to give birth that day. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.10tv.com\/article\/indiana-twins-born-30-minutes-apart-separate-days-years-and-decades-2020-jan\">WBNS 10<\/a>, Gilliam gave birth to Joslyn at 11:37 p.m. on December 31, 2019, weighing four pounds, 11 ounces. Jaxon followed her at 12:07 a.m. on January 1, 2020, weighing four pounds, five ounces.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We were surprised how big they were,&#8221; said Gilliam. &#8220;We joked about it before knowing that we were in labor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"INDYSTAR- Embed Player\" src=\"https:\/\/uw-media.indystar.com\/embed\/video\/2808780001?placement=snow-embed\" width=\"540\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The twins were born on different days, in different years, and in different decades. And to add to their unique birth story, Joslyn was the last baby born at Ascension St. Vincent Carmel hospital in 2019, and Jaxon was the first baby born at the hospital for 2020.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Still kind of overwhelmed,&#8221; the twins&#8217; father, Jason Tello, said during a press conference. &#8220;Earlier, we talked about it would be great to have them born on different dates. But here we are with this surprise &#8211; different dates, different years. That was definitely interesting for us for sure. We&#8217;re still kind of speechless still.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Very shocked,&#8221; added Gilliam.
