Mama Carmen's

While in Arkansas visiting the Duggars this week, we (Lily and Ellie) accompanied Jana, Jill, Jessa, and Jinger Duggar to their interview with Brad Reed on Fox 24 News Edge (video embedded below).

After the interview, we headed to Mama Carmen's for refreshments (White Chocolate Smoothies, Italian Creme Sodas, and Latte Mochas). Mama Carmen's is a coffee shop in Fayetteville that was featured on 19 Kids and Counting "Coffee and Caricatures."  Purchases made at Mama Carmen's benefit an orphanage in Guatemala.

"It's not always easy to get along with 18 siblings"

Growing Up Duggar is set to release on March 4th. Jana, Jill, Jessa, and Jinger Duggar have been diligently working on their first book for over two years, and it is finally finished.

"It's not always easy to get along with 18 siblings," the four oldest Duggar girls write.

Growing Up Duggar gives readers an inside look at what it's like to be a Duggar kid, as the girls discuss their perspectives on faith, family, friends, pop culture, and boys. As they look at the different relationships in their lives, the girls share how they resolve conflict with their parents and siblings, their dreams and plans for the future, details on courtship vs. dating, and much more.

"We want to get acquainted with a young man in a normal family setting, where we'll be watching how he treats our brothers and sisters," they write. "We want to see how he reacts to normal family events, such as Josie accidentally spilling her milk in his lap, Jackson unintentionally ruining his board game or Joseph trouncing him in a basketball match."

Jana, Jill, Jessa, and Jinger also talk about self-esteem and how important it is to "accept the girl in the mirror."
 
The girls--ages 24, 22, 21, and 20--are preparing for their futures. Jessa is in a courtship with Ben Seewald of Hot Springs, Arkansas, and it's only a matter of time before the others follow suit. Like Josh and Anna, Ben and Jessa have purposed to save their first kiss for the altar.

"It is sweet as a mom to watch Jessa go through this," Michelle Duggar told People Magazine. "She and Ben are open to encourage others who may be considering relationships that you can stay morally pure and wait for the one God has for you and then on your wedding day, begin the physical aspects of your relationship."

Growing Up Duggar can be pre-ordered on Christan Book, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.

3rd Duggar Book...Coming in 2014

The Growing Up Duggar release date has been pushed back four months. Instead of coming out this November, the book--written by Jana, Jill, Jessa, and Jinger Duggar--will hit the shelves March 2014. Think you can wait that long?
