At the time the photos were taken, the babies' ages ranged between three weeks and 12 months old. 

According to the department, many of their firefighters became first-time dads "during the trying times that we all faced during the pandemic."

This isn't the first time a Southern California fire department has experienced a baby boom. Back in 2019, the Rancho Cucamonga Fire District welcomed nine babies born to families in the department between March and July of that year.
