She and her husband Derick Dillard alerted the press soon after her delivery. They expressed their utter joy and excitement through a sweet post on their blog, appropriately named Dillard Family Blog. Already parents to toddler Israel, the mother and father welcomed their newest addition with arms wide open. “We are so in love with baby Sam! We are so happy to be together as a family of four,” they write.
Between their scrutinized mission trips and parenting, the couple sounds like the drama, not to mention their newborn, just strengthened their bond even more. Their loved ones even acknowledged the husband and wife’s happiness. In a loving clip on YouTube, Jinger Duggar and her man Jeremy Vuolo expressed their congratulations. “We’re so excited for you guys and your new addition, little Samuel,” Jinger says.

Jill takes solace in the obvious support her family shows, which makes her birth extra heartwarming. As she basks in the glow of motherhood, her other sisters may join her in the same stage of life. Jinger and Joy-Anna Duggar, another sibling, just got married to their soulmates. If they keep their mom and dad’s tradition (the endless cycle of pregnancy, birth, and babies), then Jill might become an aunt again.
However, she and her burgeoning brood now focus on the tasks at hand – changing diapers, washing baby bottles, and staying awake. The trials of parenthood pale in comparison to Jill’s tenacity, though. When she gave birth to two, beautiful boys, her life altered in a glorious way. She radiates with joy. “We’re so excited. We’re really excited about having another son, and I know Israel and this little one will be best friends,” she gushes. From his big brother to a gaggle of cousins, Samuel came into his own little world of love.
What a dream come true.
