Yahoo!, October 9, 2009
TV’s biggest reality family just got a little bigger.
Joshua and Anna Duggar–from TLC’s “18 Kids and Counting”–welcomed daughter Mackynzie Renee Duggar on Thursday, according to People.
Meredith Vieira also announced the news on Friday’s “Today” show on NBC, noting the baby weighed in at 8 pounds and was 19.5 inches long.

Although she is the first child for the young couple, both 21, she certainly has a lot of family who were anxious to meet her, with 17 aunts and uncles in the Duggar clan.
In fact, the brood is about to grow again in 2010, as Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are expecting their 19th child in the spring.
