Jim Bob Duggar Holds 39th Grandchild For First Time
It is hard to catch Counting On alum Jim Bob Duggar out in the wild. His wife, Michelle Duggar, has made many appearances while visiting their children. She is a far more open force than Jim Bob, but he still remains active in the news. Recently, their daughter, Jessa Duggar Seewald, welcomed her sixth child with her husband, Ben Seewald. Michelle was there every step of the way as Jessa documented in her birthing vlog, even helping to deliver the baby. Jessa’s sister, Jordyn, was also in the room, playing a very pivotal role.

Now it seems that baby number six has just met their grandpa, Jim Bob. First off, the vlog revealed that Jessa and Ben had a baby boy. They keep the gender a secret until the kids come to see them at the hospital. Then, they tell them what it is, and it is their children who break the news to the rest of the family. Eventually, once the excitement died down, the camera showed Jim Bob holding his latest grandchild. He is decked out in a suit jacket and buttoned down, beaming as he holds this new life in his arms.

Although the grandfather loves his family, again, Jim Bob Duggar is not featured all that often. However, that has changed as he made a brief appearance for his daughter, Jessa, and her family. After Counting On fans saw him holding his grandson and listened to his commentary, they loved him so much. They felt that Jim Bob had incredible sarcasm and kept things light and fun. He asked Jessa how much the little boy weighed and shared what his guess had been.
A Tender Moment
Seeing Jim Bob Duggar with his grandson warmed so many Counting On fans’ hearts. They loved seeing him and how involved he was in the baby’s life. More so, knowing that he was fine being on camera for the sake of Jessa Duggar Seewald was even more comforting. Immediately, they headed to the comments to share how they felt:
- He was born without teeth? Oh no” Jim Bob’s sarcasm is top tier
- Your dad NEVER ages!!! Neither does your momma. Y’all have great genes. Beautiful family
- Between Ben giving an absolute banger of a history lesson and your dad dressed in his Sunday best to meet his 39th grandchild. So breathtaking.
Hopefully, Jim Bob Duggar will be around for more clips so fans can continue to see and keep up with him. Regardless, it was great that he was there for such a special moment.
