    1. Wow, I wonder how many GrandDuggars will be born when Izzy is 10? 15? 20?

    4. When Israel is 10, he himself hopefully will have couple of more siblings. His uncle Josh will probably have 3 more kids, uncle John 2 more, aunt Jessa 3 more, aunt Jinger 2 more, uncle Joe 4 more, uncle Josiah 3 more, aunt Joy 3 more. His uncles Jed, Jer, Jason and James will be married in 5 years and each have 2 kids. So it will be 30 more GrandDuggars when Israel is 10.

    5. When Israel is 20, Sam will be 17, and I think they will have just couple of siblings. If all now married Duggars with have 5 more kids in the next 10 years, it will make it for 40 more. If 10 other siblings will have just 1 child each, then they all will have 50 more Grandduggars. But I'm sure Jed, Jer or Jason will be married soon and in 10 years will probably have like 3-4 kids each. James, Justin and Jackson also will be married and probably will be 2-3 kids. Even the younger girls might be married and each have at least 1 child. So in 10 years it might be like 75 new grandduggars. They might even have a great-grandDuggar if Mackynzie gets married young.

    6. In 5 years there might be 50 GrandDuggars running around. Last year there were no weddings, and this year I anticipated to have at least one Spring engagement and a Fall wedding, but with this virus who knows what's going on.

    7. In 10 years, when Israel is 15, he will be in high school while all his cousins will be homeschooled. Maybe except for Jinger's kids.

    2. 1:16 I sincerely hope you are not serious.😳

    3. Well, his own mom wears pants & shorts so I doubt he’ll be too traumatized.

    4. He's been already ruined in this sense by his parents, even his mother is wearing pants.

  8. I remember how exciting it was when the first Duggar daughter (Jill) was expecting her first child! They called him "Baby Dilly" and everyone was guessing how he will be named. It's been 5 years already!

  12. Poor guy, to have a birthday now, with no party :(. I hope his parents made some party for him in the house and explained they will have a big party later when the quarantine is over!

  14. Awe, how sweet seeing his newborn picture, now he is a big boy and ready for school! Education opens so many doors and how adorable he is going to Daddy's 1st school (and maybe be Pistol Pete, too!) but seems Kindergarten to graduation (high school) is really like 5 years lol and they are headed off to college and full blown adults. Time is sad sometimes, kids aren't kids long enough. Hope Israel had a special day filled with all of his favorites!
