Jill Duggar Dillard is pregnant again. The "Counting On" star and her husband Derick, who she married in June 2014, told PEOPLE exclusively. "We are so excited to be expecting Dillard baby #2!" the couple who have a one-and-half-year-old son named Israel, told PEOPLE. "Children really are a wonderful blessing from God. Having Israel has been such a delight to us that we know a second sweet baby will only continue to add joy to our family. We are thankful to God for this sweet child and we cannot wait to see her or him face to face!" they said.

Twenty-five-year-old Jill who is due in July, said about her plan to have a second child in December last year. She said in an episode of "Counting On" that Israel was ready to "be a big brother" and it would also be good for him as he would "learn to share". The Dillards posted a photograph standing with Israel holding a sign reading: "I'm being promoted to big brother".Derick joked about it on his Twitter account saying these was some exciting news to be shared before saying: "If you guessed we're getting a new puppy, then guess again!"

In August, Jill's sister Jessa Duggar Seewald, also a television personality, and her husband Ben also announced their plan to have a second child. The duo, who got married in 2014, have a 13-month-old son named Spurgeon and is due to welcome their second child in February. And that is not all either! In that December's "Counting On" show, Derick also expressed a plan to also adopt a child in days to come. He said the idea strikes a chord with him since his mother had also adopted.

Meanwhile, another Duggar sister Jinger who got married to soccer-player-turned-pastor Jeremy Vuolo in November and they could also be looking to begin a family. The big Duggar family (19 siblings overall) has always been in the news for big weddings and births and the tradition is set to continue.
