There are new additions to the growing family of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar. In fact, the 19 Kids and Counting stars are now waiting for the coming of their 11th and 12th grandchildren. With a total of 12 grandkids, the couple admitted that they now have a hard time remembering each of their names.

In fact, in an episode of Counting On, Jim Bob joked that he and his wife, Michelle, might need to ask their grandkids to use nametags. This way, they could name them all. These nametags should also have some of their information, like who their parents are and their birth date, so they would never forget.

Jim Bob and Michelle have wished to have 100 grandchildren from all of their 19 kids. As six of them are already married and they are about to have 12 grandchildren, it looks like their wish is not far from happening.

Meanwhile, in the Monday, March 19, episode of Counting On, TLC revealed a special feature that showed Joy-Anna Duggar's journey to becoming a new mom. Fortunately, she had her parents, Jim Bob and Michelle, by her side when she was about to give birth.

Michelle quickly went to Joy-Anna's home after she learned that her daughter was already in labor. With 19 kids and soon-to-be 12 grandchildren, it has been known that the Duggar matriarch is no stranger to childbirth.

In spite of Joy-Anna and her husband's, Austin Forsyth, plan to give birth at home, Jim Bob told their family that they had to rush her to the hospital. The 20-year-old star had to undergo an emergency C-section as they learned that their baby was breech.

As she was about to enter the room, in front of the Counting On camera, Joy-Anna gave her gratitude to their fans and said her love for them. It was then announced that she gave birth to a baby boy named Gideon on February 26.

According to Us Magazine, the newborn kid weighed 10 pounds, 3 ounces, measured 22 inches long. To recall, Joy-Anna and Austin announced that they were expecting in August 2017.
