I am a huge fan of the TLC reality show 18 kids and Counting so, it should come as no surprise at all that I am totally following the pregnancy of the Duggar’s eldest child Josh and his new wife Anna.

Shortly after Josh and Anna tied the knot, the couple announced that they were expecting and earlier today they took to the Today Show to announce the sex of the child!

The Today Show reports:

The verdict: It’s a girl!

“A little granddaughter, what a joy!” Michelle Duggar exclaimed on TODAY as her 21-year-old son Josh cut a cake to reveal pink layers live on Monday. Josh and wife Anna were married in September, and learned in February they were expecting their first child. They allowed TODAY to spring the news of the baby’s gender on them.

Meredith Vieira was the only person — besides Anna Duggar’s doctor and the baker of the cake — to know the baby’s sex before airtime.

Josh and Anna appeared on the TODAY set, while Jim Bob and Anna and their 17 still-at-home children watched the proceedings via satellite from Tennessee. The animated, deeply religious family star in their own Tuesday-night, TLC reality show “18 Kids and Counting,” and with a new baby on the way, are now preparing for what can be called “The Duggars: Next Generation.”

Josh and Anna proved to be waffling prognosticators on TODAY — and Josh should have trusted his instincts. As Josh held a knife readying to cut the cake, he told Meredith Vieira: “I had a feeling the whole time it’s going to be a girl, and so now I’m for sure it’s going to be a boy.” Anna added, “I think it’s a boy, but a girl would be great.”
