Lowell Family Closes On New Home Minutes Before Welcoming New Baby Girl

LOWELL (CBS) -- A couple in Lowell checked off two life milestones in less than 30 minutes.

Will Sanford and Caitlin Powers were set to close on a new home in Lowell on Thursday morning when Powers started going into labor.

Their attorney, Pete Smith of Touchstone Closing & Escrow, was nice enough to meet them at Lowell General Hospital where they signed all the paperwork at around 8:30 a.m.
