Derick and Jill are about to go and find out if they are having a boy or a girl. Derick and Jill reveal that they have two names picked out for their first child. They picked Israel which means God will prevail and a girl name Selah which means pause and reflect.
The couple picks up Jill's buddy team (Joy-Anna, Jennifer, and James) to find out what they are going to have. Joy reveals that they are still close to their sister even thru she got married. Joy adds that they just added Derick to their team.
Joy is excited about being able to hear and learn what the baby is going to. Everyone is excited and it's crazy to find out about the baby. They learned that the baby is going to be a boy and now it's time to reveal the gender.
Everyone is getting ready for the gender reveal party that will happen right when Duggars arrive. Derick and Jill want to include Derick's mom on her first grandson since she is away for treatment.    
Derick and Jill bring out a pinata which is a shape of question mark. Starting with the youngest one, they take three hits and everyone is so happy when the blue paper comes out and along with candy. Jim Bob and Michelle will have three grandsons and one granddaughter.

Pastor: Do you, Derick, take Jill, the woman you hold by the hand, to be your lawful and only wife, to love and to cherish, to honor and sustain, in sickness and in health, in poverty as in wealth, and to remain devotedly true to her in all conditions and circumstances until the day of your death or hers?

Derick: I do. 

Pastor: Jill, do you take Derick, the man you hold by the hand, to be your lawful and wedded husband, pledging here and now to love him above all, save God and His will, and indicating that you will honor him compassionately, encourage him in all difficulty, until death part you both?

Jill: I do.
