Yesterday, I got the honor of photographing a true miracle baby. He’s not my first to photograph, and I’m sure not the last. His story is different in that he was born when his mommy was only 24 weeks pregnant. He was born weighing 1.8 lbs and was only 12.5 inches long. He spent a long journey in the hospital and after 5.5 mos. he was able to come home. Awesome, huh?! I’m not sure what he weighs now, but about a month ago he was 11 lbs. 2 oz. and was 21 3/4 long. He is a little over 7 months, but his adjusted age is only a little over 3 months. It’s just an amazing story. He still has along road ahead of him and I know his family appreciates all the prayers in the past and welcomes prayers for the future.
So here he is…
He gave me the biggest smile!
He even liked my soft blanket and basket.
He admired the Christmas tree… I’m sure he’s the best present his parents have ever gotten!
Then the little guy just tuckered out… So mommy got some loving time with him.
And then we decided to let him finish his nap…
Thank you R Family… He was precious!
