Marcus Duggar, the youngest child of Josh and Anna Duggar and the youngest grandchild of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, is nearly 14 months old. He was born in the Duggars' home state of Arkansas just weeks before Josh and Anna packed up and moved their family to Washington D.C.
How many more children do you think Josh and Anna will have?
How many more children do you think Josh and Anna will have?
Sooo adorable!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThey will have as many kids as the Lord sees fit!
Hopefully no more. :)
ReplyDeleteMarcus wasn't born at home.
ReplyDeleteIt says he was born in the Duggar's home state, not at home
DeleteHe's adorable! I think Anna may have a few more but she and josh will leave it in God's hands and they will be happy with whatever he decides. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to say but I guess around four maybe not as close in age as Josh and his siblings but four or five
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna guess 8 total
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adorable! And as to how many children they will be blessed with, only God will determine.
ReplyDeleteMarcus is so sweet and growing fast, true for any kid.
ReplyDeleteI know Josh and Anna are leaving how many kids they will have up to God, but I thing they will at least hit double didgets maybe 10 or 11.
Cutie He looks like Anna's dad
ReplyDeleteWow I can't believe Marcus is 14 months. I bet there will be another baby on the way soon.
ReplyDeleteI think they will have something under ten, but who realy know, God has a plan
Love, Amber
I think they will have nine more
ReplyDeleteGrowing fast. Maybe this season will reveal a 4th grand duggar.
ReplyDeleteMarcus takes such cute pictures! I say Josh & Anna will at least 6 kids. As long as Anna is healthy I say they will have closer to 10 kids.
ReplyDeleteHe is just so adorable!!!! Looks a lot like Josh..... Thank you so much Lily and Ellie for your blog! It is a blessing to have as my home page and to be able to read since we got antenna which means NO TLC! God bless you both and good luck Ellie with Mr. Handsome!!!!<3:):)
ReplyDeletewhy do you ask this question. they need to do what is best for their family. By Gods Grace I hope they only have less then Jim bod and michelle did.
ReplyDeleteHe is so adorable!!! :)
ReplyDeleteAs many as God gives them. :)
ReplyDelete7-9 more kids
ReplyDeleteWasn't he born at a birth center?
ReplyDelete7-9 more kids
ReplyDeleteI think they will have 1 more child.
ReplyDeleteMarcus is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI think they will have four more.
ReplyDeleteThat's hard to say I'm going to guess 22 I think she'll have more then Michelle because her and Josh started right away and she is only 26 right now.
ReplyDeleteI think Josh and Anna will have about 6 or 7.
ReplyDelete0 to 2. Chris W.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is 6 for a total of 9.
ReplyDelete~ Lili in NFLD
I think they'll have a few more, but I'm not sure if they'll have 19! =) Maybe 10.. idk who am I to guess!
ReplyDeleteMarcus is really cute. Love those chubby cheeks!
ReplyDeleteI think Josh and Anna will have 12 more children for a total of 15.
ReplyDeletei think josh and anna will have 10 kids
ReplyDeleteI don't know how those Duggars do it, but ALL their children get cuter and cuter with every passing year! My guess is that Anna will have 11 more children. :)
ReplyDeleteCUTIE!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope Marcus is the last, not b/c I wish them ill, I just feel sorry for Anna.
ReplyDeleteFive or six
ReplyDeleteThey will have as many children as God will bless them with!!!! I hope that they have many more!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOff topic but since this post is about Babies I thought I'd just say I just saw on Zach and Whitney bates instagram that they are naming their son Bradley Bates.
ReplyDeleteThey are having children every two years so far. My guess is that as Anna gets older, she'll have longer spacing. So, my guess is 8 more. However, God blesses as he sees fit. . .
ReplyDeleteAwwww... he's so cute!!!! I think they will have as many as God will give them. :) God Bless y'all!!
ReplyDeletethe lord know
ReplyDeleteMarcus looks like his grandpa (Anna's dad). Such a cute baby
ReplyDeleteNot to nit pick, but he wasn't born at home. They traveled to their midwife's home (or birthing centre) to have Marcus...
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't say he wad born at home, just in their home state
DeleteIt didn't say that when I first commented. The post was edited to say he was born in their home state after.
Delete@anonymous...Anna loves her children and I can guarantee you she desires more! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope they have as many as God blesses them with as well. My guess is around 8-10.
I think she will have 4 or 5 more but I don't think she will as many as Michelle had. In fact I don't think any of her kids will have as many as she had unless they start at 20 yes old. Marcus is very cute!!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe 5 or 6 more. Hey maybe Jill and Anna will be pregnant together and end up both having girls ( the Duggar need more granddaughters).
ReplyDeleteI do not think they will have as many as Josh's parents. I think Josh and Anna will discuss childbearing and end up with maybe 7.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they'll have as many as Jim Bob and Michelle either. I think maybe 2 or 3 more. Their lives are different in the "big city".
ReplyDeleteit is up to the GOOD LORD to decide how many they will be blessed with. we should NOT be guessing its like playing the game of life with someones elseslife.far more better topics to discuss i feel. like is jill/derick working furthering education, thinking of joining the military to serve our country just my opinion thats all anna s. bird in hand pa (yes its real town)
ReplyDeleteHopefully 4
ReplyDeleteI think they will have a total of 8 to 10 kids.
ReplyDeleteI think they will have as many as The Lord sees fit to give them. Children are such a blessing.
ReplyDeleteI heard a saying that said "children are an expression of life's longing for itself". I thought that was a beautiful saying but I know that God gives us children as gifts.
@Crawfords of WA
ReplyDeleteHi Crawfords of WA and Anonymous 3 & 42,
Marcus was born at a birthing center. When we said "He was born at home in Arkansas..." we were referring to the fact that he was born in the Duggars' home state of Arkansas just before Josh and Anna relocated to D.C. But we see how that could be misleading, so we reworded it. :)
Thanks for being vigilant. We are blessed to have you all as readers.
~Lily and Ellie
Really? I don't think it could have been more clear. You said he was born in the Duggars home "state" of Arkansas. Anyway, he's adorable nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteI don't think any of the Duggars, or the Bates, children for that matter, will have 19. They have given hints about that, such as enjoying quiet time, pink bedrooms they longed for, and admitting they couldn't handle that many. I don't look for Josh and Anna to have but a few more. Anna is already having a very, very hard time navigating Washington with three. I think she realizes that until her little girl gets about 12 or so and can become a "Sister Mom" to help with the "little ones" in such a busy as a town as Washington, she is pretty much homebound without any help if she any more right now. Maybe that is why there is always an original Duggar girl at Anna's house. To help out already.
ReplyDeleteMarcus is so cute!!! And I think that Anna will have maybe 3 or 4 more children
ReplyDelete- Brittany :)
Given Anna's age of 26yrs and that She and Josh have already 3 children and Anna being the one who is quoted as being the one who does want a large family. I would say some where between 12 and 14 children on total , given the spacing between them now and her age. However there may come a point when they do decide to stop as I recall when Josie was born early that they said to each other " she too young / small" probably thinking that she had hardly a chance to survive - though we all know she did - a miracle ! - and what are the odds of that ?? But if that shocked them then they may take a step back when they are getting older, and revaluate where they are at and choose more wisely, depending on their circumstances at the time. So maybe they might have only 8 to 10 children in total. Really only God knows - as he holds the future.
ReplyDeleteI think they'll have many more including a set of multiples since it does run in the family! I think at least 12 total. As far as anonymous saying she feels sorry for Anna...why??? She's living a life she dreamed of and loves. She has stated on the previous show that other girls her age want careers but that she loves to be a homemaker. She has 3 beautiful healthy children who God has gifted her with and a husband who loves her and is wonderful. I personally admire her:-)
ReplyDeleteI reckon 10-11 more kids (:
ReplyDeleteHe looks adorable indeed. & I am honnestly happy for Josh & Anna. Therefore I am not sure I understand fully their views about abortion, pills etc. Just hope Anna will always stay healthy if they need need to have +10kis or more.
ReplyDeleteMarcus was born at a birthing center? It looked more like the midwife's house rather than a real "birthing center". I think that's a stretch of terms. Anna seems to have long, hard labors, and it would behoove Josh to spring a little $ for his wife and to be born child and take her to a real hospital. What is they run into an unexpected complication? There would be everything she would need to deliver safely. They are a real group of tightwads, IMO.
ReplyDeleteMarcus looks just like Anna’s dad
ReplyDeleteMarcus looks just like Anna's father, Mr. Kellar. There's no denying it's his grandson.
ReplyDeleteHe looks so much like Josh in the top picture! Thanks so much for your wonderful updates!
ReplyDeleteHe's too cute! I'm guessing they won't try for more than 6, but if another baby came I know they'd be happy!
ReplyDelete-Grace
I think that they might have about 4 more. Not as many as Jim Bob and Michelle but still a lot. What do y'all think their names will be (sticking with their M tradition)? I think some might be Madison, Mabery, and McKenna! But I don't know! I know that however many more they have they will all be adorable!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy guess is 8-11 total. I don't think Anna gets pregnant while nursing, like Michelle did.
ReplyDeleteI am probably the only one who saw the resemblance between Marcus and his Grandpa Mike, Anna's dad (see photo of Marcus and Makynzie). I can't believe he's already 14 months old.
ReplyDeleteAs for the number of children Josh and Anna will have... as many as they would like and as many as the good Lord above will give them.
HE'S SO CUTE! I don't know how many they'll have, but they'll probably have more!

@anonymous why do you feel sorry for Anna?? She's said that she knows they don't have to feel pressured to have 19 children.....
ReplyDeleteLooks a lot like Josh and so ADORABLE!!:) Her Babies have been spaced out every 2 years so if your saying by the time she's Michelle's age I'd say about 10 or so but Anna might slow down as she grows older......But they need more Grandbabies to keep the family tree long!! Than you Lily and Ellie for this beautiful and blessed blog:))) God bless you and thank you again for this awesome blog:) ~Alina
I'm thinking a pregnancy announcement must be coming soon. Are you priming your readers? :)
ReplyDelete
ReplyDelete22- 60 kids
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteMost midwifery centers are in a home like setting, but not the actual midwifes house. A hospital is not often the safest choice for a healthy birth. I am paying thousands of dollars extra for a midwife birth to avoid a hospital, as I have had terrible wrong done to me in the hospital setting. Anna was healthy, her baby was, a natural birth thus would be the safest healthiest birth. A midwife birth costs about $3500, a natural hospital birth without insurance $3500-$4000...not much of a difference.
☺☺☺☺☺☺💜💜💜👣👣👣3 more. Cute pictures they can name it Madison Michelle and Matthew
ReplyDeleteI think they will have 10 children total
ReplyDeleteI think Josh and Anna will probably have 7-8 because they're living on a smaller income than Jim-Bob and Michelle and they live in a big city soo.. But I could be wrong they will have as many as the lord sees fit.
ReplyDeleteSimply Adorable!
ReplyDeleteI hope they are able to continue to space them out within a couple years of each other. So much healthier for the mom and development of baby.
I would not be surprised if they gifted with many more over the years since Anna seems to do so well with her pregnancies.
Either way I wish them both the best and appreciate them sharing their lives with us.

So many comment that that they will have as many as the Lord wills. Do all of you believe the same in your own life? If women should have as many as the Lord wills, a whole lot more women would be having children like the Duggars vs. them being this rare family of so many children. You would all be practicing it too.
ReplyDeletehe looks exactly like Anna's Dad. Cute baby though, and I don't usually comment on babies.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing! Cute little baby though.
@AnonymousAs part of their wedding vows, Josh and Anna pledged to have as many children as God gives them, so that's why so many commenters are making that statement. It's part of their religious belief system.
ReplyDeleteLots!
ReplyDeleteI don't think that EVERY Duggar child should have so many kids. It's up to them and their spouse. They shouldn't push to have more just to carry on a family "trait" or what have you. I think maybe 5 (so 2 more) at the most. But it's weird saying that they would have 12 more! As Parent's I am sure it's hard for them to look THAT far into the future. The whole "Leave it in GOD'S hands" thing is wonderful, but that doesn't mean that you have to just keep having children until you have menopause or your just tired. If 3 is enough, 3 is enough. There is no pressure to set a family "record". It's really up to YOU AND YOUR SPOUSE to decide because it takes TWO to make ONE {baby}!
ReplyDeleteThey believe the good Lord will bless them with as many as he thinks they can handle. I just hope the he doesn't want them to have as many as his mother had. I believe an even dozen would be okay. That's what I wanted but was not able to have.
ReplyDeleteHopefully none. Three is more than enough, especially for people in their 20s.
ReplyDeleteAnna seems stressed in Wash. Maybe she's figuring out that being by yourself all day with no help is not so grand. Josh is gone all day, not like Jim Bob who is home constantly. I think they will "plan" future pregnancies and only have 5 at the most.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous It does not state "born at home". It said "born in Duggar's home state of Arkansas". I hope they have as many as they want and are granted. It NO BODY elses business how many they have. Good luck and Many Blessings to them.
ReplyDeleteI think 9 more 12 in total more if twins come along.
ReplyDeleteThere is more to life then having a boat load of children . They are so young and for the new sister who got married I hope they enjoy a couple of years together before having children...
