“We had a baby….again!” Dianna captioned her post at the time. “The person who always told me I could do anything and be anyone was my late Grandpa Joe…years later my husband, Kevin —who with the same vigor and belief in us—has always said ‘me’ is more than good enough. Now our son Joseph ‘Joey’ Kevin joins our family at 8 lbs and 2 oz. 21 inches long! We are beyond lucky and blessed.”
