5 pounds

my babies were all born over 7 pounds so holding a baby this small is a strange feeling.

she was so fragile.
brooklynn was 12 days old and only five pounds.

can you tell i had a lot of fun taking these?  
you'd never have guessed it was 100 degrees and i was literally dripping sweat down my face.
brooklynn didn't seem to mind at all.

thank you melissa, toby and grandma marilyn.
it was a pleasure.
