JD and Abbie: Captured Before the Rapture

Cute kids. Happy family with smiles that reach their eyes.

[floridamom]

Boy, Abbie sure has gotten prettier over these few years. She looks great in this photo.

I'd much rather see this happy family than the pretentious Vuolos with their faceless kids.

I get it why people don't want to post photos of their kids.  But that back of the head stuff is just dumb.  Don't post the kids, if that's all you're going to do.

Fully agree!

I always felt they were the happiest of the married Duggar's. This is such a nice family picture. I hope they stop with two kids.

[Absolom]

It works when the couple takes the time to actually get to know one another.  JD was wise to gain some freedom and advice before looking for a spouse.

I don’t see them with more than 4 kids. They do look happy. 
 

Blessa and Ben do not look happy like JD/Abby.

[beckie]

Doesn't Abbie get that hypermedia gratis(? sp) sickness during her pregnancies? Gracie and Charlie may be their only two.

I think they will have another one or two but I wouldn't be shocked if two is it.

Jessa strikes me as a miserable person! 

[ranchgirl]

Abby posted pictures today to push matching Christmas pajamas.  Her kids are in the pictures, and they look so healthy and vibrant.  I'm sure John's kids have the same unfunctional upbringing as the other Duggar grandkids, but they appear to be clean.  

[ginger90]

[AstridM]

Old Navy had family matching pajamas on sale for much less. 

[BetyBee]

No matching jammies for the Headship?

[beckie]

They are adorable.  Easily the cutest Duggar grands (IMO)

[Panopticon]

Regardless of what JD and Abbie‘s personal values may be, those are some really cute pictures. 

[satrunrose]

Honestly, this is the one Duggar family where I want to put my fingers in my ears and go "La la la not listening!" if someone finds out something abhorrent about their beliefs. The family seems so happy and sweet. I really want them not to have asshole values. 

PS. Yes, I know the chances are slim but I just need one decent Duggar, just one!

[crazy8s]

Bonus points to them for neither the pajamas or the tree ornaments being all beige.😀

[ranchgirl]

They posted another story today shilling those picture tiles. Looks like they have moved to a home, because they were placing the tiles on a real wall and it looked like the room the wall was in branched off in a couple of ways, so not like a mobile home.  Just my observation.  

[oliviabenson]

Compare those kids to the Rod kids… obviously the Duggar grands are eating regularly. 
 

Easily the cutest/happiest Duggar grandkids.

I think the daughter looks like JD. Their kids look happy. 

[andromeda331]

Both kids are very cute.

[GeeGolly]

Such cuties with their personalities shining.

IIRC, Abbie is the least Fundyish wife married into the family. Lets hope she and her family are a good influence on JD.

Lets hope Gracie and Charlie's eyes sparkle in all future photos.

[xwordfanatik]

This family seems the most genuinely happy, especially compared to Jessa and Ben's brood.

I totally believe because they waited until they were older and more mature. I also think the two of them are probably pretty easy going in nature.

Abbie's family is IBLP. She has siblings with 6/7 kids. But they're not skirts only or any of that garbage.

Yes, pants wearers and were allowed to listen to music and dance. But most importantly they seemed to value education.

[floridamom]

I wonder if these kids will be homeschooled? Does Abbie still work at that hospital that Joy recently delivered in as a labor unit nurse?

I don't think we've gotten any more info beyond that photo of Abbie in scrubs.  Since JD, being self-employed, has flexible hours, maybe he takes care of the kids while she's working.  I wonder if it's full-time or part-time.

[crazy8s]

This is interesting

The house John got way back on the show and that he still owns, has a few storage units on the property.

He requested a zoning change in late 2021 to have the property re zoned to storage and warehouse space. It was deemed unnecessary because the original units were grandfathered in to old zoning rules.

He was told the original storage could stay, but the changes he wanted were not approved because they didn't fit current zoning. He was in violation of zoning and must remove all RVs, 4 wheelers and other things stored outside the original buildings. All storage has to be contained in the original units with the doors closed when not in use.

John said he requested the change because it was needed for him to attain a business license.

12/23 John forms new LLC for the property.

Sweet Duggar pal Tom Joseph has the property currently listed for sale for $599,999. (Updated 1/6/24)  John paid $126,000 in 2012 and has been renting the house to other for many years.

Abbie has a big announcement tomorrow! And she says it's not what you think.

Guesses?

She's a working nurse, again?

Naw.  That's probably not it.

If it's not what we think, she's not pregnant.

MLM. The only thing people will assume is a pregnancy, so unless happy fundie divorce announcements have become a thing (we should be so lucky), it has to be an MLM, probably something in the "wellness" category so she can use her nursing license to sell bullshit bullshit cures.

[Salacious Kitty]

Yeah, I also lean MLM. 

[crazy8s]

John got a 40hr a week job that is not connected to his pops in any way???

Surely that would not be what we would expect. 😂

[GeeGolly]

My guess...

Used clothing store. She's big into Poshmark and JD is cutting out the middleman. 

Or she's having Jessa's twins.

Jealous of Jill, she's written a tell-all book called My Husband with the Big Head and Me.

It will be something she’s shilling, imo. She even has a countdown clock running. 🤦‍♀️

[quarks]

Is it ok with everyone here if I don't turn on the reminder of this countdown?

[oliviabenson]

Yep joining MLM. 

[awaken]

Selling something useless. 

[Lisa418722]

Are there MLM hair products?  Somehow I'm thinking it's something with her hair.

[BetyBee]

Undoubtedly, the big announcement will be a shill for an MLM. Here's how I feel about that, Abbie. 

[GeeGolly]

3 hours and 10 minutes, y'all.

I hope you're are all finding ways to manage your eager anticipation.

I think she's going on the next season of Dancing With the Stars. 

The fact that she has to say "it's not what you're thinking" is sad.  She could be going back to school for a Master's degree but if she's asking us to guess,  everyone would just think she's pregnant again because procreating is pretty much what Duggar women are famous for.

[GeeGolly]

It looks like they have a new home, but I don't think she'd share that, unless they moved to OK.

[Gemma Violet]

Yep, it's a curling product:

When my hair starting loosing curl after I had kids I didn’t know what to do with it! I started using a wand to try and re-create the beautiful curls I used to have. I tried monat out of desperation and kind of a last ditch effort to see if it would help my hair like they claimed it would, I have been OVERJOYED to find it actually works! I love my curls again!

I guess no one proofed it before she posted it.
