Meet Aristos- who came into this world 10.5 pounds!  At our shoot, he was already up to 13 pounds.

His incredible mother is a petite woman- not much taller than I am & she labored with this ‘little’ man for more than 30 hours!  It makes me grateful my little bean was a mere 6.5 & still today she is only 19 pounds.  Needless to say- our man Aristos likes to make a grand entrance!

I spent an afternoon this week with this wonderful family.  I was amazed at the adoration & gentle way his father handled him.  His mother.. well she is a goddess- one of those women who JUST gains the weight of the baby and instantly returns to her petite frame.  

[sigh] If we were all this lucky…
