Duggars Relocating to be Closer to Hospitalized Baby

Duggar family is moving temporarily to Little Rock, Arkansas to be closer to newborn Josie as she recovers in ICU

Little Josie Brooklyn Duggar will be spending her Christmas in the hospital…but she'll have 18 family members to keep her company.   

The stars of TLC's 18 Kids and Counting are uprooting from their native Tontitown, Arkansas to Little Rock to be closer to the tiny tyke as she recovers, according to People. 

Josie, the 19th addition to the massive Duggar clan, is still hospitalized in intensive care after her premature birth Dec. 10.

The now 2-week-old baby girl weighed only 1 lb., 6 oz. at birth and was delivered by emergency C-section. 

"Our entire family is planning to relocate to Little Rock temporarily to be close to Josie," father Jim Bob Duggar told the mag. "In the meantime, we're grateful that a close friend in Little Rock has opened up their home to us for the holidays." 

To add a little more holiday cheer, the older Duggar children returned from a church mission so the whole family could spend Christmas together with the new baby.
