At Maimonides Hospital, baby girl Aserat, weighing 8 pounds, 9 ounces was born at 3:45 a.m. Wednesday.

Meanwhile at Kings County Hospital, Brooklyn's first twins of the year were welcomed at 12:01 and 12:02 am, Sierra and Sarai Tomlinson.

Their mother Sheneece Crumbie tells News 12 she was a bit nervous at first but is now overjoyed to have two healthy and happy children heading into the new year.

"I was scared because it was urgent, and I had so many questions and no matter how many I asked they coaxed me in," she said. "I was really nervous and on the other side of it trust me there is no better feeling," she said.
