"The 19 Kids and Counting" stars Jessa and Jill Duggar took to their social media accounts to share what they've been up to lately. Jessa is taking a more active approach, while Jill prefers staying at home and enjoying life with husband Derick Dillard.

Around a couple of weeks ago, Jessa posted a photo that said "The Heart of Arkansas Beats for Life." On that day, Jessa was headed to a peaceful pro-life demonstration, where she wanted to air her opinion and views on abortion.

The photo was captioned "Headed to Little Rock right now. Join us at our state Capitol at 2 pm, and together let us take a stand for the life of the unborn." She didn't mention anything about her family members joining her.

Elsewhere, the pregnant Jill is in a more relaxing mood now that she's getting closer to her due date, which hasn't been publicly revealed. But given the clues she has dropped, it's definitely around March.

While Jessa was busy with the protest, Jill and Derick were busy with their date night. On Instagram, she uploaded a photo that was captioned "#Datenight with my amazing hubby @DerickDillard #SoInLove #19Kids #PFChangs #JillMDillard"

Moreover, another clear evidence that Jill and Derick is happily enjoying married life and preparing for Baby Dilly is their public declaration of their love for one another during their first hug anniversary.

Over at Jill's Instagram, she shared a very sweet photo and captioned it "A year ago today my best friend made it home from Nepal @DerickDillard. Today I'm married to him and 32 weeks pregnant with our little man! We've been abundantly blessed this last year and are SO grateful to God! '...I will offer in His tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yes I will sing praises unto the Lord.' -Psalm 27:6"

Derick replied on his Instagram account, saying "It's hard to believe that it's just 2 days short of a year ago that Jill and I embraced at this same place when I returned home from Nepal! Then we were courting."

So, seeing how in love Jill and Derick are, will they follow the footsteps of Jim Bob and Michelle when it comes to making babies? Jill told People, "We're open to as many children as God will give us. We believe children are a blessing from the Lord and a gift from him." Plus, the two are also open to adoption as well.

"19 Kids and Counting" will return on Feb. 17 with a new season.
