Breaking News: Jana is Married

Wow. Wow. Wow. That Dress! Love it! Jana Marie Duggar Married Stephen Gerald Wissman August 15th 2024 after a 2 month engagement as they got engaged on June 15th.

The bridal party includes Abbie Burnett Duggar, Jessa Duggar Seewald as maid of honor, Jinger Duggar Vuolo, Joy Duggar Forsyth, Johannah Duggar and Jordyn Duggar along with Alan Busenitz, Josiah Wissmann, Andrew Wissmann, Matthias Wissmann, Nathaniel Wissmann, and Arnie Rohmor

Jana Duggar and Stephen Wissmann are married!

On Thursday 15th August 2024, Jana Marie Duggar and Stephen Gerald Wissmann tied the knot in Arkansas. They will be living together in Nebraska. They had previously dated around 2021 and rekindled their relationship sometime towards the beginning of 2024.

They were engaged on 15th June 2024, meaning their engagement was 61 days long (second shortest Duggar engagement after Jed and Kate). Their pre-marriage relationship was at most 227 days long - short even by Duggar standards!

The couple were older by fundie wedding standards. Jana was aged 34.59 on their wedding day and Stephen was aged 31.08. While Jana is older than Stephen, the trend in fundie relationships remains that the man is older than the woman - with an average age difference of 350 days. Jana and Stephen's age difference is shockingly close (4 days in it) to their double-sibling-in-laws' (Jeremiah and Hannah Duggar).

The average ages at Duggar pre-courtship now stand at 22.10 for women and 22.89 for men. For courtship, those numbers are 22.29 for women and 23.29 for men. Finally, at marriage those numbers are 23.05 for women and 23.84 for men. All the Standard Deviations have increased after this wedding, with the SD for women now being greater than the SD for men.

The average fundie couple has a baby 371 days after the wedding and announces the pregnancy on Day 93. If Jana and Stephen are totally fundie-typical, that would mean an announcement on 15th February 2025 and a birth on 21st August 2025. Their predicted family size is four children.

I truly wish the couple all the best for the future. I hope they both get everything they wanted out of the relationship and live a long and happy life together.

Should we get any further data confirming exactly when Jana and Stephen restarted their relationship, I will update the spreadsheet accordingly. For now, it's based on educated guesses!

2024 Wrap-Up: Babies

Duggar Family

Shockingly, we had just 1 Duggar grandbaby this year!

Brielle Grace was born to Jeremiah + Hannah (Wissmann) Duggar in late February. She is already slated to become a big sister.

Bates Family

The Bateses welcomed 5 grandkids this year, all of them boys. It's worth noting that we didn't see a grandBates from Jackson + Emerson, who had the rare experience of hitting their first anniversary without getting pregnant.

Miles Kelton was born to Josie + Kelton on February 21.

Weston Slade was born to Tori + Bobby on May 29.

William Daniel was born to Lawson + Tiffany on July 19.

Harvey Gray was born to Katie + Travis on September 29.

Graham Alan was born to Nathan + Esther on October 4.

Wissmann Family

There were 2 Wissmann grandkids this year, both girls.

The aforementioned Brielle Grace Duggar

Lila Ann Jerred was born to Susanna + Drew on April 1.

Keller Family

You know I love me some shitty baby names, and the Keller family delivers. It seems the Keller Reber family is doing an E theme, and we finally got an answer to how the Waller Keller family picks their names (D for girls, P for boys).

Josiah was born to Esther + John on January 17. (Here's hoping this is the last--though I wish we could see what wild choice they'd have made for another girl. Agatha? Eirene?)

Edelweiss Miracle was born to David + Hannah on March 16. What a mouthful. I love how bad this is.

Naomi Christine was born to Nathan + Nurie on July 14. "Naomi" was very predictable, but "Christine" was a pleasant surprise. I had been betting on "Naomi Jill." "Naomi Christine" is, in retrospect, much more pleasant.

Desiree Hope was born to Priscilla + David on July 19.

Maxwell-Bontrager-Bowers-Helferich Clan

Early in the year, Marlin Bontrager announced that he had 3 grandkids on the way. It looks like there were actually 5! Not everyone posts actively on socials, so I don't have names and birthdays for everyone.

Baby #1 was born to Taylor + Susanna (Helferich) Bontrager. Judging by the baby's age, it looks like a honeymoon baby.

Baby #4 was born to Mitchell + Bryn Bontrager in the spring.

Baby #4 was born to Carson + Carolina (Bowers) Bontrager. After Jubilee, Jemima, and Spurgeon, I am dying to know what they named their next kid.

Amelia Marie was born to Jeremiah + Allison (Bontrager) Helferich on August 28.

Watson Joe was born to John + Chelsy (Bontrager) Maxwell on December 3.

Morton Family

The Mortons are on their way to 60 grandkids.

Gabriel Lorenzo was born to Wesley + Rachael Morton on April 24.

Ezra Michael was born to Adeline + Michael Holloway on April 24.

Baby #2 was born to Edwin + Francesca in April.

Baby #5 was born to Andrew + Kennedy in August.

Thomas Ezekiel was born to Cleve + Lise on November 26.

Other Fundie Babies

Deitrich Johannes was born to Isaac + Arti Anderson on August 17.

Arrow Chosen was born to Karissa + Mandrae Collins on August 17.

Briggs Maverick was born to Sierra + Mark Dominguez.

Back when I was a Librarian, we lived and breathed by the Publisher's Weekly Bestseller List. It was my responsibility to print or photocopy the list every week and update our bestseller's display. (Also to purchase extra copies of particularly popular bestsellers.)

I haven't looked at the list in YEARS. Some of these surprise me:

A new translation of The Iliad made the list?!

Ken Follett is still alive?? (I looked him up, he's only 74.)

Danielle Steel is still alive?? ( I just looked her up, she's only 76 and has been married five(!) times. To be fair, I also looked up Ken Follett, he's only been married twice.)

I see some Christmas-themed books on the list!

I see a Disney manga! (“The Battle for Pumpkin King”)

Duggars Spotting

[revisitingstoneybrook]

#9 The Ghost at Dawn’s House: Chapter 13

Dawn thinks she’s figured out what’s going on in the secret passage! Though I’m sure you have too, this was easier to solve than a Cam Jansen mystery.

Also, the triplets are assholes to Nicky. Again.

Dawn decides to freak herself out again by exploring the passage, after she nearly made Mary Anne wet her pants in fear by bringing her inside. Great Dog Tales, the book that they found last time, is gone. The ghost must have gotten offended by Mary Anne and Dawn freaking out over it. In its place is a crust of bread. Forget a spectral Mallory; if the ghost is sneaking food and reading questionable literature, it sounds like a spectral Claudia!

She also finds another key, shoved into a crack at the bottom of the steps. Dawn leaves it be, just in case Jared the ghost gets mad and haunts her with floating images of raw steak. And that rainy night, she hears moaning in the passage, so Little Miss I Love Ghost Stories sleeps downstairs again.

Two days later, she gets to test her theory about the ghost when she goes to babysit the Pikes. Mrs. Pike is taking the girls for haircuts, including Claire - Dawn says her hair hasn't been the same since Vanessa and Margo doused her with that shampoo. I'm imagining it as really shiny and greasy. So the stage is set!

Lucky Dawn - Mallory is babysitting with her. So the triplets let Nicky play basketball with them - with the three of them against him. Nicky doesn't care since he's riding the high of being able to play with his brothers.

For lunch, what do you know...Mrs. Pike didn't get around to feeding the Pike Army. Geez, Mrs. Pike - even the Duggars got tater tot casserole on time and they have twice as many kids! What's your excuse? So the girls get food court stuff at the mall and for the boys, Mallory gets an Idea (don't tell Kristy, even though Mallory isn't a member of the BSC yet). She suggests they give the boys a smorgasbord for lunch. Dump everything out of the fridge and let them fend for themselves. And it cleans out the fridge, so Mrs. Pike can forget to refill it before that big blizzard that's on the way. That’s another book on the way here.

And what would a BSC book be without a mispronunciation of something? Nicky calls it a “schmurgerbeard” and promptly gets called stupid by Jordan. That’s something that irritated me about the BSC books, especially near the end, where there was a ton of it. Someone mispronouncing a word and someone else responding with, “Don't you mean ______, a [definition of word]?” Thank you for the vocabulary lesson, AMM and ghosties.

So the boys make a big mess of things, Adam's glopping mayo on bread, Byron is eating peanut butter out of the jar with his hand. And I guess along with the Pikes’ whole “We don't have rules, unless your name is Mallory!” thing, they also don't have table manners. Jordan runs to the stove and says he wants fried bologna. In addition to the 10-year-old reincarnation of Elvis here, Adam wants a fried egg and Byron wants fried peanut butter and jelly. 

Nicky says he wants fried barf.

Dawn cooks fried bologna for Adam and Jordan (while dry-heaving, I'm assuming) and fried peanut butter and jelly for Byron. All throughout lunch, the triplets harass Nicky, including telling him to point to his head and say Mark Twain's initials. Dawn, being a member of the BSC, which means they shall never discipline children, gives them a weak, “Ok stop.” Instead of, “Stop picking on your brother or else I'm throwing away your fried shit and I'm telling your mom when she comes home.” 

Ok, I underestimated Dawn. Adam pulls Nicky's chair out from under him and the triplets crack up. Nicky, clearly upset, runs off. Hmm, I wonder where. Dawn finally gets off her ass and does some babysitting and since this is Dawn and she's never angry, the triplets shut up right away. Dawn says she's telling Mrs. Pike how asshole-ish they were to Nicky, despite them whining for her not to tell. What a bunch of little shits.

Dawn runs off to find Nicky, leaving Mallory in charge, and orders the boys to clean the kitchen. Please. When an older sibling is in charge, that means shit. Dawn's going to come back and find the kitchen an even bigger mess and Mallory spinning in the dryer with her training bra tied to her head. Dawn also says she feels bad about yelling at the triplets. Uh, they were treating their younger brother like garbage and you feel bad for yelling at them? You know, being in charge of kids means BEING ASSERTIVE! Sure enough, Dawn runs right to her house and into the barn. Hey, look! The bale of hay is moved aside and the trap door's open! Our fearless babysitter grabs a flashlight from the kitchen and jumps down the ladder into the secret passage.

First thing she hears is heavy breathing. Dawn thinks Jared's in there with her and considers calling Mary Anne, among other people. Ok, if there's a ghost in there, what good is calling Mary Anne? She'd turn into a ghost herself. Or cry. Or both. She also considers calling the cops but stops herself because she has to solve this mystery, dammit!

Weighing over her clues and concluding that someone must have been using the passage since the floor is hard-packed, Dawn starts calling out for Nicky again when she hears footsteps.

Oooh, a cliffhanger!
