The birth of baby Eleanor has been long awaited by my cousin, Robby. For as long as I can remember he has wanted a little one of his own, so you can imagine his and Brittany’s joy when they found out they were expecting. Robby reached out to me almost immediately after they found out and asked if I would capture their birth story and, of course, I happily said yes!

When I arrived to Norway Hospital, Catie and her husband, Matt, were laughing and enjoying the company of family. Jumping, laughing and playing around the room was Declan, an energetic little man patiently waiting on the arrival of his brother.

When baby Jordan’s head came out, little James was jumping up and down with excitement yelling, “Push, Mama, push!” He watched his little brother come into this world with the greatest attitude. He had all the nurses and doctors in complete awe.
