Tampa -- A Florida woman gave birth recently to a boy who weighed 14 pounds and one ounce.

Maxxzandra Ford welcomed her son, Avery Ford, on Jan. 29 at St. Joseph's Women's Hospital. Avery set the record for the heaviest baby ever born at St. Joseph's and he's one of the largest babies ever born in Florida.

The medical staff at the hospital called Avery "adorably huge," Maxxzandra said in an interview with WTSP.
