Grand-Duggar #9 is Here!

 Mackynzie Duggar, Anna Duggar, Meredith Duggar, Josh Duggar, 
Michael Duggar, Marcus Duggar

Another Duggar has joined the clan! Josh and Anna Duggar welcomed their fifth child today. He weighed 9lbs, 1 oz and was 22 inches long. As expected, this little Duggar has been given a name that starts with "M." Welcome to the world, Mason Garrett Duggar!

Garrett is a family name from Michelle's side. Her father was Garrett Ruark, and her brother is Garrett Ruark Jr. Joseph's middle name is also Garrett.

Visit DuggarFamily.com to see a photo of Mason.

      Anon @ 5:40 No one wished infertility on Anna, the original poster merely said they hoped she didn't have anymore. I don't think that Anna would get much help from Josh with chores or childcare so five is a lot to take care of plus homeschool, maybe that is why they said it? Please do not call someone evil for a comment they may not have thought out, or you might have misinterpreted!

      I think 9-11 would be a good day to have a baby. It would show that what humankind intends for evil, God intends for good. New birth is a reminder to us that God has the final say, and that God is good.

      People born on Sept 11 have a hard time celebrating because the country is remembering something of a sad day. Trust me I know. Sept 12 is way better. Be sad and remember the 11th and then move on to a happy 12th.

      Honestly, Im not starting trouble. I like the name Mason and think the meaning is apropos but that is the first thing I thought of and can't believe others are not making the same correlation. I think its an unfortunate choice considering and think you are going to hear backlash in the media about it. If they had a girl and named her Madison wouldnt you think that odd? Mason is almost the same name. Just take out the "di".

      Really?! That is a stupid suggestion!! Mason is absolutely, positively an ADORABLE name with no similarity or connection to the name Madison. The only connection they have is they are both popular M names.

      I agree with Deanna. The names are very similar. Identical except for one syllable. I know they didn't do that on purpose but I find it strange that they didn't realize what they were doing. They must have liked the name enough to override the comparisons.

      No that is not what they are doing since this is a post about Josh and Anna with the new baby's picture along with their other children's pictures. I would snatch my little family out of the public circus and get a job and raise them in a Godly private life. Teaching them if they work hard they will not have to depend on others for their home, or a reality tv show for their income. If this keeps up their children as they get older will be seeing Daddy's picture all over magazine covers being trashed, along with daily doses of attacks online. God's way is always the best way and that is live a quiet life,working hard and trusting God to supply. If they wouldn't dare allow TLC to be on in their homes, it probably isn't Gods will that you are on TLC in the first place.

    Wow now there are 3 birthdays of the duggar's my immediate family shares. My youngest son's birthday is September 12th 2005, mine is April 6th 1978, my sister's is August 2nd 1982. It's a shame we don't live in the states as there could be a possibility of my youngest boy and Johanna getting together a few years down the road they are a month apart. Any how congrats on little Mason. Hoping to find out soon the sex of Joy and Austin's bundle coming. Plus also news of more duggar's weddings and babies to come.
