I got the call from Kate late Thursday night that she was headed to the hospital. Things progressed very quickly and I arrived about 12:30AM.
There was no clock in the room and the time seemed to pass so quickly.
About 30 minutes after I arrived, it was go-time! Kate kept looking at Andrew and saying she couldn't believe that this was happening. She couldn't believe they were about to have 3 daughters.
The room was so calm & quiet and after only a few pushes, a beautiful baby girl started crying before she was even fully born.
She didn't have a name yet, but she was perfect.
Since baby girl was born in the middle of the night, I came back a few hours later to see capture Annabelle and Josie meeting their baby sister for the first time.
Kate announced to the girls that they finally decided on a name: Ruby Mae. The girls preferred Ellie (even though that was not one of the choices--ha ha)
{I love how you can see Annabelle's twin brother Max in Kate's necklace above. Such a beautiful way to include and remember him on this special day}
These girls were the absolute sweetest and it was so precious to witness their excitement over their new sister.
And all four of Andrew and Kate's beautiful babies...
Kate and Andrew, Ruby's birth was such a beautiful experience. Thank you so much for trusting me to capture this day and be included in these moments. I can't wait to see you all again next week!
