Have They Figured Out What’s Causing It?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about “Go forth and multiply” and all that. We have four kids, which believe it or not, gets us all kinds of odd looks and comments from strangers.
But 17????
Arkansas couple welcome their 17th child
LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (AP)—It’s a girl—again—for Jim Bob and Michelle Duggars, the proud parents of 17 children.
And after Jennifer Danielle was born Thursday morning, her parents already were talking about having more children.
“We’d love to have more,” Michelle Duggar said, adding that the girls are outnumbered seven to 10 in the family. “We love the ruffles and lace.”
The family’s home in the northwest Arkansas town of Tontitown includes dormitory-style bedrooms for the boys and girls, 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 the youngest, before Jennifer, is almost 2 years old. The family includes 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. “We are just so thankful to him that everything went just very well.”
All of Jennifer’s siblings also 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, almost 2.
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.
I wonder if its just for the media now. Are they trying to get into the Guiness Book now?
Jim Bob, here’s some advice: Get the TV fixed man. You need another form of recreation down there in Tontitown.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
