(Newser) – Nadya Suleman brought seventh octuplet Joshiah home from the hospital yesterday, People reports. Only baby Jonah remains behind, and doctors say it could be weeks before he has gained enough weight to leave the hospital nursery. "Each day that goes by it gets a little easier," said Suleman. But she plans to hire private security to protect her home after a vandal threw a baby car seat at her van parked outside her house yesterday, shattering its rear window.
