LAGUNA HILLS

David Richard Gardner will get quite a homecoming today. The youngster is one of four quadruplets born to Steve and Carol Gardner at Saddleback Memorial Medical Center last month.

Weighing slightly more than 3 1/2 pounds, he will join brothers Patrick Kirby and William John at home in Tustin. The remaining sibling, Timothy Peter, is scheduled to be released from the hospital Wednesday.

Before going home, the quads had to show they were gaining weight, maintaining body temperature and feeding from a bottle.
