Birth at Great Mall McDonald's surprises family

A Bay Area couple left the the Great Mall in Milpitas with a lot more than retail deals Thursday afternoon.

Evelyn Alexander was having an early dinner at McDonald's with her husband and daughter when a particular kind of indigestion began grumbling in her belly. The couple's second child wasn't waiting for anything.

Alexander's water broke just before 5 p.m. and minutes later, the family became a foursome.

The birth is the first for the Great Mall but the second for the Alexander family. They already have a 3-year-old daughter. Both mom and the family's new baby girl are doing fine. They were invited back for a special gift full of goodies from retailers at the mall. Happy birthday, Great Mall McBaby!
