On this, the Feast of the Holy Innocents, Bristol - thank you for choosing life!People magazine reported that 18-year-old Bristol Palin gave birth to Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston on Sunday. He weighed 7 pounds, 4 ounces. Colleen Jones, the sister of Bristol's grandmother, told People magazine that "the baby is fine and Bristol is doing well."
And for any troll who wants to remind everyone how she is an unmarried mother . . . yes, that's right, but why wouldn't you express joy at the birth of a child, regardless of its circumstances? My father found out after his own mother's death that she did not marry his father until just before the birth of their third son, making him and my Uncle Hughie "bastards" to use the phrase then in vogue. And a finer man never lived, my Dad, so keep your comments to yourself on little Tripp's parentage . . .

Congratulations to the new family! Not crazy about the name Tripp but it's so much better than say...Barack.
A unique name indeed, but God willing he is healthy.
Congrats to the new grandma, Sarah Palin...
Well said! And I LOVE the name. Blessings go to the family.
And if his mother and her siblings are any indication, Tripp will be a beautiful little boy. Congrats, Palins and Johnstons!
Well said. My dad's parents were married before he was born....but I can "do the math" too. Either dad made medical history by being a full sized baby at birth, or grandma and grandpa, not having MTV or bowling allies to hang out in, had a roll in the hay after the summer harvest. That or they found him in a cracker jack box. And if they hadn't had that roll the hay when they did I wouldn't be here either.
