HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- We're learning of a couple of peeks of sunshine in the midst of Tropical Storm Harvey.



Ciara Davis Lee of La Porte shared a photo on Facebook of her new baby boy Landon after he was born with the help of firefighters and officers during the storm.



Lee wrote," I wanted to thank the firefighters and officers that helped me get from Buc-ees to the hospital in the flood this morning while I was in labor. I did not get your names but my family and I are so grateful for your service."



Baby Landon was born happy and healthy Sunday at 3:30 p.m.



Another baby, a girl, was born in Pasadena on the same day.



Angel Dean posted the precious photo of Trinity.



"Pretty cool to see I'm not the only one with a hurricane baby," Dean wrote.



Trinity was born at Bayshore Medical Center at 12:05 a.m.



Dean described the moments when Trinity arrived during the storm.



"Honestly, I was watching the lightning flash and listening to the rain slam against the windows when I was pushing. The only thing that distracted me was my husband's face when he saw his daughter for the first time and the sound of her cry. It was truly a blessing in the middle of chaos."



Earlier on Monday, Eyewitness News Reporter Chauncy Glover helped a pregnant woman who was in labor in northeast Houston. She was eventually transported to Texas Women's Hospital.
