Catherine Cervantes and Brianna Andrade delivered their bundles of joys just hours apart on October 10.

Both sisters were due in late October, but Andrade had to be induced, so Cervantes went with her to the hospital, Advocate Condell Medical Center, in Libertyville

Cervantes delivered her son Nico at 4:43 a.m. on October 10. Andrade delivered her daughter Josefina around noon the same day.

The sisters say the baby cousins are more like twins, even eating and sleeping at the same times.
