Gov. Sarah Palin and her husband, Todd, present their fifth child, a boy named Trig Paxson Van Palin, who was born Friday. The Palins confirmed that Trig, their second son, has Down syndrome. Palin worked briefly Monday, just three days after giving birth. The governor didn't spend the entire day at work, but she did meet in Anchorage with her gas line team, which is preparing for a special legislative session. A Palin spokeswoman said the governor will be working on a limited basis for a while, and hopes to make some public appearances already on her calendar.
