Happy Mother's Day: Michelle Duggar Pregnant With 18th Child

(Tontitown, Ark.) KTHV -- It will be a happy and busy Mother's Day for Michelle Duggar. She's pregnant with her 18th child.

The 41-year-old Tontitown, Arkansas mother is due on New Year's Day. The new baby will join seven sisters and 10 brothers, including two sets of twins.

The ever-expanding family lives in northwest Arkansas in a 7,000-square-foot home. All the children, whose names start with the letter J, are home-schooled. The Duggars' children now range in age from 20 to nine months.

There are two 1,000-square-foot dormitories in the Duggar home, one for the girls and one for the boys, nine bathrooms, a game room, prayer room and massive pantry that looks like a grocery store.

When the Duggars were married in 1984, (she was 17 and he was 19), they didn't want children immediately, feeling they could not afford them. My how times have changed.
