A family of eight recreated this adorable photo of newborn sextuplets six years on

A family of eight have recreated a photo of their newborn sextuplets six years on.

The original photo ofRozonno and Mia McGhee's six children, taken by photographer Brian Killian, featured the newborn babies lying on or next to their father.

Killian told TODAY that the photo had received a great amount of attention on social media:

We knew that one was special.

I think people still remember seeing it six years ago. To have six little babies asleep on their dad — that's a unique portrait.

So for the sixth birthday of Elijah, Issac, Josiah, Madison, Olivia and Rozonno Jr. this week, the family decided to recreate the image.

One thing's for sure - they're not so little anymore.

The portrait was commissioned to promote the families' new reality show Growing Up McGhee, which follows Rozonno and Mia parenting the six children while simultaneously running their carpet-cleaning business.

The siblings made history as the first known sextuplets to be born in Columbus, Ohio.
