There might not be 19 kids in their home yet, but these sweet photos of Ben Seewald and Jessa Duggar together show that their growing family is already full of love. The 24-year-old TLC star — who is best known for being a part of 19 Kids and Counting, the reality hit that gave viewers a view of her family’s conservative Christian lifestyle — recently gave birth to the young couple’s second child in early February. But they’re already looking ahead to baby number three to join newborn Henry Wilberforce and their 15-month-old son Spurgeon. While their family’s journey has been documented on the spin-off reality show Counting On, the Seewalds often provide another glimpse of their lives through either through adorable photos posted on their social media accounts or through sweet blog entries.
And fans of the Duggar clan seem to love these updates about the Seewalds’ little family unit in their two-bedroom house. But don’t expect it to stay this small for too long as Duggar told People in early February, they have plans for “many future babies” and were exploring adoption as way to do so.
"Ben and I still have a deep desire to adopt, and it’s something we continue to look into," the mom of two recently told People. She had previously told Us Weekly in May 2016 that they feel "strongly about opening our hearts and our home" to kids in need.
Whatever the future holds for them, any additions to their family will be joining one that's already full of love. Look ahead to see where it all began for these lovebirds and adorable glimpses at their growing brood:

It's surely been one exciting ride to witness these proud parents fall in love and start a family together, especially since the couple’s relationship got started in a different, more spiritual way that not everyone 20-something is familiar with: Courting.
Jim Bob Duggar, the father of the supersized family, told People last September that they were "so excited for Ben and Jessa" and explained how courting and dating differ:
Courting is getting to know each other in a group setting, both families spending time together and the couple setting goals together to determine if they are meant to marry. With dating, a couple will often pair off alone and that sometimes leads to a more physical relationship.
However you slice it, their family’s journey is clearly full of love with two happy baby boys that keep the entertainment coming.
