On Tuesday, the newest episode of 18 Kids and Counting focused on Joy Anna Duggar’s 12th birthday. Joy is a little tom boyish and decided to have pizza and go play laser tag.Jim Bob Duggar also had all of the family go rock climbing too. Joy seemed like she had a really nice birthday. Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar really do care about their kids and try to make their kids’ birthdays as special as possible.

I watched the episode of 18 Kids and Counting: First GrandDuggar. I have to say the home birth to me looked dangerous. I had a baby at Anna’s age and my doctor had someone on call 24/7 to cover his patients, you just call his service. First time moms can run in to many medical issues if they and the baby are not properly monitored so I was afraid for Anna. Luckily, she was ok as was McKynzie. Congrats to Josh and Anna!

Yesterday, I watched the newest episode of the reality tv show 18 Kids and Counting. It was James’ eighth birthday as well as Deanna Jordan’s birthday who is Jim Bob’s older sister. The one thing that I do not like about the Duggars is that they say that they accept Deanna even though she had a child out of wedlock. Don’t you think that J.L and his wife and the other Duggars did not like that Jim Bob and Michelle have 18 almost 19 kids? People who are overly religous think that their non religious family members should be grateful that they accept their lifestyle choices which I think is unfair. I like the Duggars but they should not have had Deanna bring up her particular life style chocies to defend herself or how she lives. I am glad that James got to go bowling and get a new bike and helmet. He seemed very happy and got to spend some time alone with Jim Bob which was very cute.

Michelle Duggar of the show 18 Kids and Counting is expecting her 19th child with her husband Jim Bob. I am always amazed whenever the Duggars announce a new arrival for me, I am amazed at how fast she can have a baby and then become pregnant again. I would think that after40 your fertility starts to diminish a lot. When Michelle was pregnant with Jordyn she talked alot about thinking that her child bearing years were almost behind her. Her son Josh is expecting a daughter next month also. I am happy for the Duggars, it seems like they enjoy their family life and love children a lot.

This week on 18 Kids and Counting the new episode focused on newly married Joshua and his wife Anna. They went to the beach in South Carolina and stayed in a four bedroom home there for their honeymoon. I have to say the modest bathing suit looks so uncomfortable and looks like it would be hot to wear at the beach. I mean she is married and a nice one piece bathing suit covers everything up but she can wear whatever she wants. Josh and Anna went para sailing which looked liked fun. They also went out to a fancy dinner which was foreign to them since they rarely go to nice restaurants. They also were going to sleep near the sharks in the aquarium but they left after a half hour. When they got back to Arkansas, Anna wanted to cook dinner for the entire Duggar clan.Some of the older Duggar girls went with her to Aldi’s and helped her cook the meal. We also got to see Josh at the car lot; he needs to be more convincing when he sells cars. He did not sound very knowledgable. I think the episode wasgood. I really like Anna and I think she will be a great mom.

This week on the Duggars 18 Kids and Counting, the Duggars said good bye to their beloved grandfather, J.L. Duggar. He died in his sleep which I think is very sweet; my grandparents also died in their sleep. It can be difficult to deal with this because you do not get to say good bye; but as you can tell Grandpa Duggar had a brain tumor for a year and was not even able to sleep. I am glad that he finally got to rest in peace. You can see that Jim Bob really had a hard time with this. I mean it is very hard for a man to lose his father; you can tell that the entire family really loved him. The Bates were still there and helped out the Duggars which was very nice. I thought that the slideshow that Jana made was very nice. The funeral was very sweet and the Duggars even sang at the funeral which I thought was nice. We should offer our condolences to Grandma Duggar and the entire Duggar family.

This week on the newest episode of the Duggars: 18 Kids and Counting the Bates came to help out the Duggars after the devastating ice storm that took out there electricity for over eight days and dropped many trees near their property.Now say what you want about the Bates, but I really think that they are a great family. I mean what family would take a pregnant mom with sixteen kids to go help out another huge family? I mean that is dedication and loyalty at its finest. Jana made Grandpa Duggar a banana cake birthday cake because it was his 73rd birthday. This really struck a chord with me because my grandfather died of cancer and could not speak at the end. Now, Josh and Anna are expecting a baby I had to say it is a little weird to call a camera producer before you tell your wife that she is pregnant. It sounded like they were trying to get pregnant. Now, I am lost her isn’t quiverful about just letting God plan your family size and not actively trying to get pregnant but not using birth control? Either way, the Duggars were very excited about it and I think that Josh and Anna will make great parents. I think that it was a very good episode.

Okay, this weekend I have been reading posts everywhere about Anna Duggar who is the wife of number one son and eldest Duggar child Joshua. Now, the episode last week had a promo of Anna taking another pregnancy test after she said she had taken a couple. Now, the couple was married in September and it was filmed in February and she took many pregnancy tests so I think she is not pregnant. The program talked about one life changing and a new one beginning. My theory is that around the time of the filming, Grandpa Duggar passed away so now Jim Bob’s life will change because he is the new head of his family. I could be wrong but if Anna were pregnant we would have heard by now I would think. The new life that is beginning is Mrs.Bates baby, I believe she is due right around that time. It is just a theory but I thought I would put it out there. We will have to watch the new episode on Tuesday and see what happens. What do you think about this?

This week, a new episode of the TLC show the Duggars 18 Kids and Counting aired. The episode focused around a terrible ice storm that hit Arkansas during the winter. The Duggars were without power for days and a big tree even came down and smashed their shed. The kids were very rambunctious but Kim Bob and Michelle seemed very level headed. A man named David who was with the camera crew braved the ice storm to get baby Jordyn some diapers. I thought that this was incredibly nice of him. He even got stuck on a closed road but the firefighters helped get him out and he made it back to the Duggar home. We also learned that at the time of the filming that Grandpa Duggar had only a few days to live. I am glad that he got to spend his last few days at his son’s home and be around his grandkids. During the commercial break we saw that Anna hopes to be pregnant and is taking a few pregnancy tests. I doubt that she is actually pregnant since it would have been news by now.The most scary part was that Jordyn fell ill and had to go to the hospital. I amglad that everything turned out all right for the family. What did you all think of this episode?

Now, I have watched every episode of the Duggars reality show and their specials and I actually really like this family a lot. They are debt free which is hard in this economy.The parents are involved in their kids lives even if the daughters do do a lot of the housework and take care of the younger kids a lot of the time. I think having a big family if you can afford it is a good thing. I mean people say how many resources are used in big families but most of the times they reuse things and try to save money. Jim Bob and Michelle actually seem to really love each other very much. They do not fight at all and they seem like very principled people. I like shows that stress morals; in today’s media morals are frowned upon most of the time. I mean just look at music videos; the more skin shown the more popular the music video is. Sex sells and that is sad and makes me afraid for what the world will be like when my son is a teenager. We can all learn something from the Duggars; we should try to be thrifty and live our lives according to our own morals and values and not try to be like everyone else.
