Alabama and Landon are not Travis's only children as on November 4, The Blast reported that Travis and his wife, Kourtney Kardashian, welcomed their newborn — Rocky ‘Thirteen’ Barker — at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles.

In the first photo, fans of the celebrity couple get a glimpse at the back of Rocky’s head, as Travis is holding his son in his arms and Kourtney rests her head on Travis’s lap. When fans swipe, they will then see Rocky’s adorable little feet as Travis cradles their newborn baby boy.
The third image in the post shows Travis Barker kissing Rocky’s forehead, however, his hand just covers enough of his newborn’s face. And lastly, Rocky was seen sleeping in his father’s arms as Travis hugged his newborn.
The photos of Rocky Barker certainly grabbed fans’ attention as they flooded the comments section of the holiday post. “Kourtney will always be the top Kardashian! She managed to have all those babies naturally and is okay to be without makeup on camera! I think that’s the most interesting thing to look at,” one fan wrote.
Kourtney and Travis's doctor even commented on the post, sharing, "Kourtney and Travis, Beautiful Family. Thank you for trusting me with your pregnancy every step of the way. Love you guys, Dr. Rad."
