Born in McDonald's: 'Little Nugget' turns one

A year ago Wednesday, a baby girl was born in a McDonald's bathroom. "Little Nugget" has an entire community watching her grow up and they helped her celebrated in the most fitting way.

She was born in a McDonald’s bathroom one year ago. The family of "Little Nugget," as she is nicknamed, celebrated in the most fitting way.

The small fry shook up her parents’ world and made a memorable entrance, but it wasn’t exactly what her parents ordered.

Nandi Phillips was born in a restroom at a McDonald's located on Fulton Industrial Boulevard in southwest Atlanta. 

Her mother woke up early, felt contractions and headed to the hospital, not knowing she and her baby-to-be would soon be capturing attention across the country.

"I had to use the restroom. My having to use the restroom resulted in my stopping in McDonald's. I went in the bathroom. My water broke. I never made it out until I delivered," said mother Alandria Worthy.

The staff at the McDonald’s along Fulton Industrial Boulevard, where Little Nugget was born, shared their memories of the moment the one-piece was fresh out of the womb.

Decked out with red and yellow balloons, the fast-food restaurant became the perfect backdrop for a birthday party.

Now a walker, and soon to be talker, this little girl has no idea her entrance was of supersized proportions.
