“We are thrilled to announce the birth of our baby girl, Grey Hunt Rivera. Proud big brother [Mars Hunt, 3½] can’t stop talking about his new baby sister,” the parents told PEOPLE.
The birth is set to be a memorable experience for the family of four for several reasons. The couple disclosed that their baby girl was delivered at home in a sudden and speedy labor that lasted only 13 minutes.

“Grey is already showing us her independent streak. We were expecting her to arrive via a scheduled C-section on Thursday morning. She had other plans!” the parents told PEOPLE.
“Grey was born at home, early Wednesday morning, after 13 minutes of sudden labor — before there was even time to call the paramedics. Dad sprang into action and delivered baby Grey on the bathroom floor,” Hunt stated.
“We are so grateful to the 911 operators and the DC Fire & EMS team. Step-by-step, they talked us through the incredibly intense moments right after she was born and as she took her first breaths,” the couple continued. “Thank you to the firefighters and paramedics on the scene who treated mom and baby at home and then brought us safely to Sibley Hospital in Washington. It’s a day we’ll never forget!”
“We’re so excited about life as a family of four — and reminded it’s going to be that much more unpredictable!”
