Media meet Huntsmans' newest addition
"It's such a humiliating experience," Huntsman joked to the reporters and photographers gathered to meet the newest member of Utah's first family in the parlor of the Governor's Mansion.
But as soon as 1-year-old Asha was handed back to one of her big sisters, she slipped her thumb in her mouth and settled down. So far, only Liddy, 18, can soothe her. "I guess I look like a nun," Liddy laughed.
The Huntsmans the governor, first lady Mary Kaye, Liddy, 14-year-old Will, and the family's other adopted child, 7-year-old Gracie Mei from China traveled to a remote Catholic orphanage in western India to bring Asha home.
Eagerly waiting to meet their new sister were Abby, 21, and Mary Anne, 20, who are attending school in the east. "It was hard. We saw the pictures of her in the newspaper and we just wanted to hold her," Abby said.
