Words can’t express how grateful I am for this amazing little family of mine 🥹

Now having these two incredible daughters fills my heart with so much joy! 🩵🥹

Seeing the love Cora already has for her sister Ivy truly melts my heart in every way I didn’t know was possible 🥹

Seeing my amazing husband who takes on everything he possibly can - doing anything possible to make his family happy 🩷 when we are just grateful for his daily presence 🫶 and SO lucky to have him!

I’m really so grateful for these photoshoot sessions we have done with ever since I was pregnant with Cora.

Having these moments and memories always makes my heart so happy to look back on 🩷

Life is crazy and chaotic, so it’s nice getting to slow down and remember the small, yet huge moments like this 🫶🥰

The way Tisha captured Cora being so gentle and kind with Ivy 🥹😭😭😭🥹 And somehow got Ivy being calm and not screaming 🤣🫶

Anyways, just grateful 🥹 thanks for reading 🥹🫶

Bit delayed, but I’m happy to announce that our beautiful daughter Ivy Cecilia Duffy-Pagan🩵 made her arrival 3/12/26 at 2:45 pm (same time as Cora was born coincidentally 😂)

She was 10lbs and 2oz; 21 inches; and perfect 💜

She had a slight scare coming out, shoulder got stuck and was turning blue. I thankfully didn’t see but I know Ace and my mom were terrified.
Our team at Kaiser was truly incredible though and quickly got her unstuck and breathing! They were amazing!

Overall my L&D experience was a lot smoother than it was with Cora!🙌🏼 Only downside was that 5 days PP I had a fever of 102 and really bad chills - apparently due to an infection called endometritis and ended up having to stay in the ER for 2 nights which wasn’t fun 😅😭 but thankfully I’m better and back home with my little family 🫶

Cora has been an AMAZING big sister so far!! It makes my heart melt. She gives Ivy kisses on her head, is so gentle with her, helps with anything she can, and is doing so much better than I expected with this change 🫶

So grateful for the at home help from my mama Kimi! - coming and staying a week with us to help prepare and transition with our new addition. 🩵🙏🏻🙏🏻

Also blessed that my best friend Tad Olson was willing to fly all the way here from Chicago to stay with us and help adjust with everything! 🥹🙏🏻🙏🏻

It’s been quite wild adjusting to life with a toddler and newborn - but Ace and I are so grateful for this change. Two amazing baby girls 🥹 We are so happy!

Thank you everyone for so much love and support through this change 🫶🙏🏻🙏🏻

Such a beautiful event!💚🩷🥹 2/1/26 🫶

My two amazing bonus mama’s and put together SUCH a perfect baby shower for us to welcome our little girl Ivy on the way 🥹

With the help of so many other amazing family members and friends as well to make this beautiful event so beyond perfect! 🫶🫶🫶 We truly couldn’t be more grateful!

All the love and support of everyone who came to celebrate was so special 🩵Words can’t express how thankful we are for everyone!!

Another perfect set of beautiful moments🥹😭🫶🥰

Thank you SO much for always capturing the perfect pictures of our little growing family!

Especially as Cora wants to make it as difficult as humanly possible 😅😂

I am always so amazed by the work you do!

It feels so special knowing you have been able to capture the start of this growing family when Cora was in my belly 🥹

Now with her baby sister Ivy!

Thank you so much for everything!🩵🩵
