Baby Daycian Jeremy Idlett did not have any competition for being the first 2017 baby born in Liberty County, but it was a race against Mother Nature for his mother. Cradling the resting baby close, mother Christyl Idlett chuckled as she explained "a pretty wild story," of how she barely made it to the hospital for delivery just after midnight Jan. 3. Idlett, her husband Jeremy, and their 1-year-old son, Cyngzton, made a road trip to Marietta New Year’s Day to visit her grandmother and other family.
