Welcome to the Duggar family blog. Jim Bob and Michelle married in July 1984 and have twenty children. They have thirteen children-in-love. They have thirty-nine grandchildren with two on the way.
This year, the Duggar family will celebrate three grandchildren turning 10 years old but first we need to start this new season of our blog.
Mackynzie was the first grandchild to celebrate her tenth birthday in October 2019. Two years later, she was followed by her brother, Michael, in June 2021. Two years after that they were followed by their brother, Marcus, in June 2023.
George is here!
Ben and Jessa announced his birth on December 23rd. The next day, they announced his name.
It's been almost five years since we were doing updates for a Dillard baby and today we are adding Frederick to the mix.
He was born 7/7/2022 at 5:16pm weighing 7lbs. 6oz. and is 20 inches long. Fun fact his brother, Sam, was born on 7/8/2017. He shares his birthday with his uncle James.
Frederick means “Peaceful Ruler” and Michael means “Gift from God." The name Frederick also holds special meaning for Derick and Jill since it’s Derick’s name with “Fre” added to the front, to make “Fre-derick.” Similarly, Derick’s name is a variation of his late dad’s name, Rick, that his parents created by adding “de” to the front of Rick to spell, “de”-“rick,” literally meaning son “of” (de) Rick. They were excited to settle on the name Frederick and incorporate both Derick’s and his dad’s name, by just adding “Fre” to the beginning of Derick’s name.
The Dillards revealed that his birth was to be by C-section due later this month but he decided to come earlier than expected.
