The family is overjoyed with their small (big) miracle

The Patonai family in the US state of Arizona literally experienced a big surprise when their son Finlay was born weighing 6.5 kg. Mama Carrie Patonai and Papa Tim are overjoyed about their miracles – as the couple has had multiple miscarriages before.

Mama Carey suffered repeated miscarriages

We’ve never seen anything bigger!’ Then the hospital staff asked if they could take selfies with the mother and baby, Carrie reports.

It was clear to Patonis that there were ‘big genes’ in the family since the birth of Finlay’s older brother, Everett (2). “When he was born, he was one of the top 5 biggest newborns in my doctor’s office,” Carrie reports to “Local 12.” “Two years ago I thought: ‘Just wait and see, I’ll make it in the first place’ – and then we accidentally made it really!” (And)
