Carlos faces the challenges of his chaotic new life as the father of quadruplets – Tracy, Paisley, Erica, and Carlos Jr. – with the steadfast support of his family and America.

Erica, his wife, gave birth to the quadruplets on January 15. Carlos, a 29-year-old fact-finding worker, vividly remembers the moment, praising Erica’s exceptional delivery and the health of their babies.

Unfortunately, a few hours later, complications arose, leading to Erica’s passing at 1:50 am on January 16. Carlos recalls the overwhelming shock and grief, struggling to find words during this difficult time.

Now, more than five months later, Carlos acknowledges the profound impact his children have had on his life, giving him renewed purpose and motivation to move forward.

Tracy, the firstborn quadruplet, currently weighs 6 pounds, 4 ounces, sharing traits with Carlos and her late mother, Erica. Carlos describes Tracy as consistently cheerful, especially after meals, and affectionately remembers her as “poundcake” during Erica’s pregnancy.

Carlos Jr., wrapped in tiny blankets like a little goat, brings a calming influence to his siblings. Carlos predicts he will become a protective brother in the future.

Erica, the smallest at birth, exhibits habits reminiscent of her late mother, showing a love for sleep and relaxation. Friends distinguish her from Paisley with a green cotton ball, honoring Erica’s late mother’s favorite color.

Paisley, equally small at birth, is healthy, attentive, and curious about her surroundings. Carlos cherishes each child’s unique personality and the blessings they have brought into his life, emphasizing their individual roles within the family.
