Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar of Tontitown, Arkansas recently welcomed into the world their 17th child.
And the mother said “We'd love to have more.”
The family's home includes dormitory-style bedrooms for the boys (7) and girls (10), nine bathrooms, a commercial kitchen, four washing machines and four dryers.
The children are home-schooled by Michelle Duggar, 40. The oldest is 19 and there are two sets of twins.
“We are just so grateful to God for another gift from him,” said Jim Bob Duggar, 42, a former state representative who sells real estate.
All the kids have names that start with J. They are: Joshua, 19; John David, 17; Janna, 17; Jill, 16; Jessa, 14; Jinger, 13; Joseph, 12; Josiah, 11; Joy-Anna, 9; Jedidiah, 8; Jeremiah, 8; Jason 7; James 6; Justin, 4; Jackson, 3; Johannah, 2 and now Jennifer..
The Duggars have been featured on several programs on cable's Discovery Health Network.
Among the “fun facts” listed on Discovery Health's Web page devoted to the Duggars: A baby has been born in every month except June; the family has gone through about 90,000 diapers, and Michelle Duggar has been pregnant for 126 months – or 10.5 years – of her life.
