WELCOME HOME

Earlier in the week, Jill shared the first look inside baby Freddy’s nursery – complete with a La-Z-Boy recliner and handmade swaddling cloths.

She shared two new pictures and took fans inside the newborn’s nursery.

One candid snap showed Jill and Derick’s two older sons, seven-year-old Israel and five-year-old Samuel, leaning over the baby’s crib.

The former TLC alum furnished the nursery with a SNOO Smart Bassinet, worth $1,695.

In the photo, fans could also make out shelves stacked with baby essentials, and a La-Z-Boy recliner.

On another slide, proud mom Jill shared a selfie as she held baby Freddy wrapped in a handmade sling around her neck.

She smiled in the photo, to which she added the caption: “We are all over here soaking up the snuggles and love from little Freddy!”

In the comments of the post, the mom-of-three revealed that her older sons “are always loving on” their baby brother.

EARLY ARRIVAL

Jill revealed Freddy arrived a little earlier than his due date.

But when he did, she took to her Dillard Family blog to share the exciting announcement.

The former reality star posted an adorable photo of the newborn lying against her chest in hospital.

She captioned it: “Freddy” Frederick Michael Dillard is here! He was born 7/7/2022 at 5:16pm weighing 7lbs. 6oz. and is 20 inches long.

“Frederick means “Peaceful Ruler” and Michael means “Gift from God.”

TOUCHING TRIBUTE

Jill – who also shares sons Israel, seven, and Samuel, four, with Derick – revealed how Frederick’s name is a sweet tribute to Derick and his late dad.

“The name Frederick also holds special meaning for us since it’s Derick’s name with “Fre” added to the front, to make ‘Fre-derick,'” she explained.

“Similarly, Derick’s name is a variation of his late dad’s name, Rick, that his parents created by adding ‘de’ to the front of Rick to spell, ‘de’-‘rick,’ literally meaning son ‘of’ (de) Rick. 

“We were excited to settle on the name Frederick and incorporate both Derick’s and his dad’s name, by just adding ‘Fre’ to the beginning of Derick’s name.”

The TLC star added: “Frederick was set to arrive later in July, but he decided he wanted to come a little early (the day before big brother Samuel’s birthday!), so we had our planned C-section a bit before originally planned.  

The ex TV personality announced back in February that she was expecting a third son – four months after suffering a miscarriage with their daughter River.

“Ever since we were devastated last fall by the miscarriage of our sweet baby, River Bliss, we have prayed that, if it was God’s will, he would bless us with another baby,” Jill and Derick previously wrote on their website.

“We are excited to announce that God has answered our prayers and we are expecting our rainbow baby due July 2022!”
