One fire department in Dekalb County, IL, is growing by the day.

Eight firefighters welcome newborn babies into the world over the last several months.

"Everybody seems to chip in when shifts need to be covered, so we have each other's backs," one new dad told News Nation.

Luckily, the babies (four boys and four girls) were spaced out a little and the firefighters work on different shifts.
