2 + 2 = 4
2 girls and 2 boys and we are so happy to have our new little Desmond Parker John Holman.
More on the story will be forthcoming but he was born at 3:33 pm on January 22nd. He was 7lbs 9oz (our smallest baby yet - I thought for sure the whole pregnancy that he would be the biggest.) He was 20 1/2 inches long and he's a fantastic baby so far.
The girls are loving having him around and are constantly asking questions like "why is his skin so dark? will he grow up light?" "Was Collin's belly button thing the same color?" "can I hold him for an hour?" They love him and he happily lets them hold him all the time. Collin is a little unsure what the heck is going on but thoroughly enjoys pulling his pacifier out and putting it back in. Which incidentally Desmond loves the pacifier and is by far the most adept at sucking on it than any of my other kids. So far he's a great sleeper and eater.
Minutes after he was born. He's a little bruised and battered but still a cutie.
This is the "pacifier" from the hospital. They don't have any so they make one by putting a sticker on a bottle nipple. He didn't seem to mind at all.
This is an attempt to show you his hair. He and Bridgett are the only ones to be born with a significant amount of hair.

Mom, Dad and I love the pics! He looks great and big too. We can't wait to see him in person! Love you guys!
Huge Congrats to your family. I can't wait to hear more specifics. I have to know is Desmond from the show LOST? That is the only time I have heard the name. Also did you feel like you were having a boy the whole time? How are you feeling?
What a handsome little man! I am so happy that he is finally here, we can't wait to see you him in March. You make such great babies! Give all the kiddos hugs and kisses from their Bountiful family!
so cute little Desmond. I know John loves Lost?? any relation? How is the transition from just 2 little girls, now 2 little boys? your kids are all just darling. We wish you a speedy recovery!
Congratulations, you guys! Desmond is such a cute name. I hope the first few weeks goes OK and passes quickly.
I am very happy for you! Good Luck!
Great job Robin. He is a keeper.
