  2. Hmmmm, is it intentional that Jill's belly is out of the frame?

    1. No. Stop reading too much into things.

    2. Everything they do is intentional. It keeps the ratings going.

    3. Why do we need to see her belly? Her face is talking, not her belly.

  4. Jill and her husband are really fortunate to have so many opportunities to earn money. Many people only dream of getting extra income from a reality television show or financial support from fan donors.

    1. I agree. They are really fortunate. I wonder if they will donate half of the money they recieve from thier new show to the SOS ministry they work for? In addition to the fan donations, that's quite a lot of money that is much needed for thier cause! Imagine how far that money could go! It could provide clean water, food, shelter, basic necessities and much more!!!

    2. That's for sure.

  6. Lily and Ellie, You need to be reminded how much fans of the Duggars appreciate all that you do for this blog. It must take a tremendous amount of time to keep up with such an active family, read each blog and print the appropriate ones, listen to reader requests, and answer reader questions. You are so gifted at what you do and we are the recipients of those gifts. You show wisdom, compassion, grace and patience throughout these posts. Thank you for being a blessing to the Duggars and to all of us who read these blogs. Love and continued blessings, Barb

  7. That was not an update. All I got from that was "Hi, here we are standing on a shady balcony in front of a sunny mountain; Israel likes bananas; don't forget to watch our show."

    If the camera had pulled back, would we have seen a maternity top? "Our family continues to grow" - what's that supposed to mean? She's pregnant, in an area with Zika?

    1. Stop with the negativity. God's got everything under control.

      Delete
    2. What exactly were you expecting? And why all the negativity on this blog lately? Absolutely nothing satisfies people.

      Delete
    3. I keep my stomach out of pics and I am by no means pregnant. I think she may still be self conscious that her tummy isn't flat from the C section. If she's pregnant, I know they, and many of us, pray for their protection. Faith to go on is what it's all about. I believe what Derrick meant about growing and changing, is that Israel looks so grown and different every time we see him. They did mention a few times about adoption. We'll have to wait and see what happens.

  8. Very few men look good with a beard. I must be honest and say I don't think Derrick is one of them. That's a little too rugged if you ask me. Just my opinion though, to each his own.

    1. It looks like he's trying to take the eyes away from what the surgery did to his jaw & fill in that area of his face while everything is still shifting. But I agree, not the best look for him. And before someone jumps in & complains about comments on his appearance, bear in mind that a lot of his fans are worried about that & whether the surgery was the right decision, or if it's going to work out for him in the end. Very hard to tell right now.

    2. Some opinions are best kept to ourselves...

      Delete
    3. I know ALOT of guys that look good with beards. I think it might be that Derrick's beard is thick plus maybe how he got skinny cause of his oral surgery.

  9. I don't understand this "update". They say they are missionaries. Again, not really understanding that. True missionaries would have given a real update on the beautiful things God is doing through them for the people of Cental America. Instead they promote themselves and their reality TV show. It's very disappointing.

    1. Agreed. You can even take away a letter from that word.

      Think back to what Jill was ever shown as a "missionary" trip when she was younger. Think of what was filmed and aired on TV. Think of how this is not your usual church-sponsored missionary activity. Then it might start to make sense.

  10. I was kind of stunned by Derick's rugged beard. I haven't seen any pictures of him for a while.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I am excited because it seems to Me Derick made a hint that their family is growing and more about that news will be on the upcoming shows.

  12. Thank you for sharing with us. I pray for you.
    His Blessings

  13. I see they are continuing to enjoy their long term vacation while waiting to be on their new TV show.

    1. If you think giving up home, family, friends, security and 911 services,to mention a few things,as a vacation to work in the missionary field in a medically inept country then maybe you should give it a go.

    2. You have no idea what I do and have done. You have no idea how much I have given up--including burying my oldest daughter and not even being able to put flowers on her grave due to the location. All without the payday of reality TV. I would have liked to hear what they are doing for their " missions". They chose to promote their TV show instead.

  14. Thanks for the video, i really appreciate all the updates, it makes their hiatus go by that much quicker...blessings☺💜

  15. I really enjoy the Duggar blog that you write. I was wondering if you are compensated for writing their blog. I always loved the Duggars. The parents truly love their kids and always got their best interest at heart. They truly do a remarkable job raising all of them. Happy Days to You

  16. Im going to guess that Jill and Derick have adopted a baby girl. It would explain their residency statuses and the visit of Jim Bob and Michelle...and why that picture of them cradling an unknown infant was taken and placed in the montage.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I put this in the wrong post. I think Jill and derick adopted that baby girl. Three points...
    They have no sstisfied residency status in their country.
    SOS helps an orphanage.
    In their update,chill and derick include a family pic with the baby saying their family is growing and chwbging.
    Jim Bob and Michelle probably flew out to meet the child.
