Vandals hit a Tulsa diner again Tuesday night.

The owners of Flo's Diner said it's been a roller coaster of emotions, because they had a baby Wednesday.

The owners said waking up to shattered glass is not a pleasant way to start the day, but it feels like a bad case of deja vu.

"Not again," owner Dennis Adkins said. "You know, we have vandalism a lot around here and we just had our register stolen and our window broke less than a year ago and then now this one."

Wednesday was supposed to be special for owners Dennis Adkins and his wife Brandy.

"Oh we were excited this morning; I'm expecting my fourth child tonight," Dennis said.

Adkins and his daughter and employee Kylie say vandals broke the window, but didn't take anything.

"As soon as I walk in I go to the back and my daughter's with me and she says, 'Dad I think the window's cracked,' and I come back, walked up here and looked and I'm like, 'No that's shattered,'" he said.

It isn't the first time. Last year someone burglarized the restaurant and the Adkins' Catoosa location has also been broken into more than once.

'It's like they're picking on us you know? We're just trying to make a buck. Trying to support our family," he said.

The window alone will set Adkins back $2,000.
