Newlywed Jessa Duggar from 19 Kids and Counting cannot wait to meet her sister Jill's firstborn son Baby Dilly, and said that her sister's pregnancy has made her think of starting a family of her own too.
"I'm really excited to have a future niece or nephew I'll get to spoil," Jessa said in the show. "It just makes me stop and think man, that could be Ben and I real soon."
Ben Seewald and Jessa are actually keen on following Duggar parents Jim Bob and Michelle's lead by creating a huge family, and they plan to do so by adopting.
"We hope to adopt a lot of kids," Jessa earlier told PEOPLE. "If God blesses us with biological kids of our own, it's not going to quench our desire to adopt."
Jessa truly believes that she is more than ready to become a mother just like Jill. "I guess I'm ready for it. I mean, I don't think I'd be getting married if I didn't think I was ready to start a family," she said.
As for Jill and her husband Derick, they are simply thrilled to be surrounded by positive and supportive family and friends as Baby Dilly's due date draws near.
The whole Duggar family recently went on vacation in Texas and Jill said they actually contacted some midwives there just in case Baby Dilly planned to arrive earlier than expected.
But Derick confirmed that Baby Dilly is staying put for the meantime. On his Instagram account (@derickdillard), he posted a photo of himself cradling Jill's tummy and captioned it, "We had a great time with family on vacation, but it doesn't look like we're going to have a Texas baby."
Jill even shared that it's her dad Jim Bob who is more worried about the contractions she's been having. "He's checking in, asking how regular they are," she said. "I feel great, the baby is moving around a lot."
