Known as the “tiny mom” due to her not-tiny-at-all twin babies, Alexis LaRue has become one of the internet’s latest stars, with one of her videos drawing more than 48 million views on TikTok alone. Joining TODAY along with babies Camila and Elena, she acknowledges that camera angles accentuate the babies’ size, but adds: “It is true, I am very small and they are big babies!”
As any parent knows, trying to care for one baby is a lot, then multiply that by two for twins, and it's a lot to handle, as seen in a now-viral video.
The video, which went viral on TikTok, shows Alexis LaRue, 22, trying to hold her twin 7-month-old daughters, Camila and Elena, who weigh around 21 pounds each.
At just 5 feet 3 inches, LaRue, of St. Paul, Minnesota, has her hands full with more than 40 pounds of babies.
LaRue told "Good Morning America" that her daughters, who were born in March, are in the 92nd percentile for their weight, and the 98th percentile for their height, according to their last pediatrician visit.
The girls weighed six pounds each at birth and have continued to grow into the healthy, happy babies they are today, according to LaRue, who said her fiancé, the girls' father, is 5 feet, 11 inches tall.
