Congratulations, Jana & Stephen!!! Welcome to the world Archie.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable baby! Blessings to the family!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Jana and Stephen on the birth of their new baby. Archie is a great choice for a name. Jana and Stephen are now officially parents for the first time ever. Jim Bob and Michelle are now grandparents again.
ReplyDeleteHow special he shares a birthday with his uncles.
ReplyDeleteWELCOME ARCHIE GERALD WISSMAN!! We are so happy you and mother are healthy. Congratulations to the new parents!!! We know you will be AWESOME parents . Enjoy every minute of 2026 as you watch Archie grow and develop every day!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. So happy for them 💙🩵
ReplyDeleteCongrats from my mom and I! We are happy you're both healthy. Love the name. God bless you all!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! All is well now. ❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time a Duggar grandchild shares a birthday with at least one of many aunts and uncles. I was kind of surprised Archie was born on the same day as Jedidiah and Jeremiah’s 27th birthdays. It’s great that they picked Gerald for a middle name because that’s Stephen’s middle name.
ReplyDeleteThis is not the first time that a Duggar grandchild shares a birthday with one of their aunts or uncles. Jill & Derick's son Frederick, (2022,) shares a birthday with his Uncle James. Joy & Austin's son Gunner, (2023,) shares a birthday with his Aunt Jill.
DeleteGunner and Jill, Frederick and James. Both pairs share birthdays already...
DeleteAlso interesting to see that 2 of the Duggar Daughter-in-laws share the same birthdays (Anna and Hannah)
Congratulations! Your baby boy is cute and I love his name.🧸
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Jana & Stephen! Archie is a beautiful baby boy!
ReplyDeleteIs there a reason for the name selection?
DeleteYou usually name a human? Thats how you got your name & I got mine! Our parents named us!
DeleteCongratulations Stephen, Jana on your bundle of Joy!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the birth of your baby. Enjoy the moments, the go so fast.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the birth of your baby boy. Enjoy the moments...the government by so fast.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! God bless! 💙💙💙
ReplyDeleteI am just so happy for Jana to get to be married and to be a mom! Archie is absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteArchie Gerald?? As a teacher who has seen this situation a million times, we’ll see how he feels about his name when he’s 13 years old.
ReplyDeleteWell 7:09, you should see if there's a way you can personally contact them and the next time they want to name their OWN baby they can check in with you first on any names they're considering. Heaven forbid they pick a name YOU think their future 13 year old won't like. Lol 😉☺️
Delete7:09 Archie.is a solid name, for some reason I think of all the athletes with that name, like Archie Manning.
DeleteAgreed. However, he'll probably be homeschooled or go to a church school.
Delete@6:08pm I Agee!
Delete@7:29 I agree! Jana & Stephen named their little bundle of joy a good solid name and Archie is just as cute as can be. I am so happy for them. Another commenter said, Archie means, “truly brave”
Delete@ 6:08pm 👍
DeleteYou must be new to this culture. The customary reply is "congratulations."
DeleteI think sod Harry & Meghan’s kid- I wish I only thought of Archie Manning.
DeleteHello Archie! <3 :)
ReplyDeleteSo happy they spent time with their new baby before going public. Hope they don't a video showing his birth like others do. Enjoy your private moments with you baby.
ReplyDeleteWell said!
DeleteI agree. Jana has been really circumspect about this pregnancy and kept everything about it very private which is good, the only public things she did was announcing she's pregnant, the gender reveal and the birth announcement so I doubt we're going to see a heck of a lot about the actual birth.
DeleteA reminder to everyone complaining about Jana and Stephen announcing the birth of their son three weeks later: They absolutely could have done a Joe and Kendra and Josiah and Lauren and said absolutely nothing... be grateful if a Duggar wants to share anything with the public because there might be a day soon where most of them will decide their children do not need to be in the public eye and disappear from social media.
DeleteWell said!
DeleteI saw their newborn pics on Facebook. He is really cute!
ReplyDeleteThe baby is almost one month old before you tell us. What is the meaning of that?? I figured she was still pregnant! But I will still follow the Duggar family, at least some of them.
ReplyDeleteWhat business is it of yours when they announce the birth?
DeleteBecause they had to wait for a news magazine to announce it and probably make some money.
DeleteBe grateful that Jana and Stephen publicly announced the birth of their son at all. They could have and probably should have done what Josiah and Lauren have done.
DeleteI'm disappointed you waited almost one month before telling us. It's not like we would do something to the baby. We are fans of the Duggar family
Delete@1:10 Be grateful they announced it at all because they didn't have to snd could have just said "Baby boy born 30th December. No name to be disclosed to the public for privacy reasons". Jackson and Emerson Bates had a baby boy last year and they have never announced the baby's name on social media which is their right.
DeleteArchie is the the name of my cousin's dog...Yikes!
ReplyDeleteIt s also the name of the son of Price Harry from England.
DeleteWell, I know someone whose dog had the same name as me, and I have a very common name. Sooo . . .
DeleteYeah…it’s a pet name. I also thought of the main character on All in the Family too.
DeleteYour cousin's dog has a people name . . . Yikes!
Deleteprince harry is not a prince of england he is a prince of great britain and the united kingdom england is not the only country in the uk
Delete4:19am That's like trying to explain to the UK that the US is not just California, Texas, Florida, and New York. Besides, that poster said "from" England, not "of" England. You can't dispute "from." He was born in London.
Deletedoesnt matter where he was born he is not a prince of england which i was the person posting was meaning
DeleteArguing about where Harry is from is beside the point. The point is that he also has a son named Archie. Nitpicking someone's word choices is something I correct my kids for. It's just not necessary and distracts from the main point.
Deleteyes it does matter too many people assume that England is the only place in the UK when in fact there is also Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland it is very annoying to be referred as english when in fact u are scottish and as this is a public post i cant put my opinions
Deleteyes it does matter too many people assume that England is the only place in the UK when its not
DeleteTechnically they didn't say he was the prince of England. Go reread it. 😁
Delete@9:05pm You are Right! 👍
Deletehe is from the UK not just England thank you
DeleteAnywho, the point was that Archie's name is also the name of Harry and Meghan's son. Harry and Meghan who live in the US.
DeleteCute baby! He was given an old farmers name and this baby's initials say a g, for agriculture?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! How nice that he was born on Jedediah’s and Jeremiahs’s birthday!
ReplyDeleteThe name Archie is from German origin and its meaning is “truly brave”. Love it!
ReplyDelete@12:04pm So cool! Archie is a great name for Jana & Stephen’s little precious baby boy! I am so happy for them.
Deleteits usually short for archibald very old fashioned name surprised they picked it tbh
DeleteSo happy for Jana! And Stephen!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I'm thrilled for them. I can't wait for my oldest daughter to get married and have her own kids. She's just a few years younger than Jana!
ReplyDeleteWhat if your daughter has no interest in that lifestyle? Would you be disappointed in her? I’d prefer that my daughter be excited about travel, college, and career.
DeleteThat's a lot of pressure and expectation to put on someone. I would never expect my sons or daughters to produce grandchildren for me. Their life, their choice.
DeletePerhaps her daughter has confided in her Mom and said that she can't wait for the day she meets her special love and starts a family. The Mom has every right to be excited at the prospect of her daughters dreams coming true and she didn't owe you a full blown explanation as to why she said what she said. My gosh people stop 💩ing on happy comments!!
Delete@11:11am 👍
Deletearchie is usually short for archibald quite an old fashioned name wonder why they picked it
ReplyDeleteHow bad was the ice storm in your area, Ellie? Power out?
ReplyDeleteThank you for asking! We had a bad ice storm and are in the middle of a 4-day power outage. 100,000 still out of power in the Nashville area. We're doing ok though.
DeleteEllie
No power in January ice is the worst. We put in a whole-house generator years ago but that only makes us dependent on another machine that can fail. Plus you really don't want to have to live with that running if you can help it. You want the Real Deal from the power company. Nashville has a lot of grid rebuild to do before it recovers.
DeleteDon't expect to much out of Bates or Duggar families babies or weddings. Why something like what they do for a living women work outside home .More topics other than babies and weddings
ReplyDeleteThe header of this blog needs updating.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to do that when most of the Duggars no longer want to show their children's faces online or even disclose their children's names.
DeleteMy horses name is Archie. Wow
ReplyDeleteDid John David and Abby have the baby girl?
ReplyDeleteIt is crazy now with all of the ai content posted. Delaying an announcement gives ai Im post ers a big chance to put up lots of fake news that gets clicks from people eager for the "real news". Of course ai news is usually NOT real or reliable, especially if the real report is not out yet for ai reports to feed off of. It was late January and I was considering that the baby wasn't here yet, because all the ai stories just did not look really true. I'm glad to know the true story and finally really see their beautiful baby boy!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the picture of the baby boy on this website, only on social media.
