The Duggar family is expanding once again, but this time Michelle Duggar will be grandma, not mom.

Joshua Duggar, 21, the oldest of the 18 children born to Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar is going to be a daddy himself. Joshua’s wife, Anna is currently three months pregnant with the couple’s first child.

Joshua told People, “”I am very excited and am learning new ways every day that I can be there for my wife. I thought that she would be the only one going through the emotions of pregnancy, but I’m right there with her.”

The Duggars first became a hit when their documentary about having 16 children aired on TLC. Since then, they have added two more babies and have a regular television show on TLC.

So, what does mom, Michelle Duggar, have to say about the pregnancy? “We are so thrilled about this news. It is so fun to be around Josh and Anna. They are walking on clouds.” Jim Bob adds, “We are really excited about being grandparents. We think it is really going to be easier than being parents.”

The couple was married back in September 2008, and the new baby is due to arrive in October.

The pregnancy will be featured on the Duggar’s show 18 Kids and Counting on TLC.
