Michelle Duggar told the TODAY show yesterday that her family would happily welcome a 20th baby if it’s in the cards.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar added a 19th child, Josie Brooklyn, to their brood this past December, though she was born more than 3 months early.

“When we look at Josie — we were just talking about it this morning — and I thought, even knowing that we went through the challenge that we did, we would do it again”

“The precious life that we see here is not a coincidence. I just know that it is a miracle. I don’t take that for granted. I know that God is the one who gives life, and I’m just so grateful and thankful. We would welcome another if He saw fit, but we’ll wait and see.”

The family says that other than the supplemental oxygen she requires when she’s asleep, and the recent discovery that she’s lactose intolerant, Josie is remarkably healthy and should catch up to other kids developmentally by the time she hits 2.

Josie joined siblings Josh, twins Jana and John David, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joseph, Josiah, Joy-Anna, twins Jedidiah and Jeremiah, Jason, James, Justin, Jackson, Johannah, Jennifer and Jordyn-Grace in their Arkansas home in June, after a nearly seven month stay in the hospital. Josh, the family’s first-born, is the only sibling no longer living in the Duggar house. He married in 2008 and the couple brought the first “grand-Duggar”, Mackynzie, into the world last year.

If the Duggars do make it to 20 and are looking for name suggestions, I’d go with ‘Richard’.

You can see the Duggar family on their own reality show, 19 Kids and Counting (which was 17 Kids and Counting, then 18 Kids and Counting…you get the idea) on TLC on Tuesday nights.
