19 Kids and Counting Duggar Family News: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Celebrate One Year Anniversary of Their Engagement
As they eagerly await the birth of their first child, Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard celebrated the one year anniversary of their engagement on Sunday, March 29, by taking to Instagram to post throwback pictures.
"One year ago, she said yes," Derick wrote. "Happy engagement anniversary to my beautiful bride @jillmdillard I love you Jill Michelle! #newlyweds."
Jill also took to the photo sharing app and wrote, "One year ago today, the sweetest man in the whole world asked me to marry him. I said, 'yes, totally!'…now, 9 months into marriage we await the arrival of our little #babydilly."
Baby Dilly, as the couple refers to their unborn child, was scheduled to arrive on March 25. On Friday, Derick took to Instagram to share another photo update of his wife holding up a chalkboard with the words "40 weeks and 2 days." He also took to Twitter to announce that he can hardly wait for his son's arrival as he tweeted, "40 weeks: time to make like a baby and 'head out' anytime now, son #BabyDilly."
Jill has previously said that she doesn't think that her baby will come anytime this month. The 23-year-old, who is a trained midwife, recently told People that she has named April 5 as her second due date because "first time moms often go a week and a half over" their expected due dates.
The "19 Kids and Counting" star was even able to fit in a little volunteer work over the weekend as she shared an Instagram shot of her volunteering at the Compassion Center in Springdale, AR. The center is a non-profit that "funds, resources, and supports hunger, foster care and adoption, life training and immigration transition" according to the center's official Instagram account.
