The Newest Member Of Our Family Has Just Arrived!
“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.”
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.” 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.
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.
Both Jill and Frederick are healthy and are enjoying bonding while we look forward to bringing him home from the hospital soon!
Congratulations you guys!! He’s absolutely precious! Welcome to the world little Freddy!
Congratulations!
Congratulations Derek and Jill on your new baby boy!!! I love the name!!!
Mazal tov! May he be blessed always!
Congratulations Jill and Derick! So very happy for you all! “Freddy” is precious and such a Blessing.
Awww!! He’s precious! Congratulations to your sweet family!
He looks so much like his big brothers. How precious, congratulations to you all.
Freddy is such a cute name! He has Sam’s nose! Hope Jill is doing alright…and happy birthday Sam!
Congratulations! All children are a gift from our Lord. I need to give you a small correction, though. Michael does not mean “gift from God.” Michael means “Who is like God?”.
Origin: The name Michael is of Hebrew origin and means “who is like God?” or “gift from God.” It is found in the Old Testament, notably in the Book of Danie
Mazel tov! He’s absolutely beautiful! Three blessings!

He is so precious. ✝️ Praying from

Congratulations! He is adorable.
Michael is also Derick’s middle name, isn’t it? So all three boys have a name (first or middle) that ends in “el”. You kept the tradition!
Congratulations! What a surprise to go early, rather than later like with your other two boys!!! I love the reasoning behind his name, that is so special. He’s so cute. Congrats you guys
Love the name Freddy. It’s like the characters name Fred from Harry Potter.
Congratulations!!
All the best to your family and a belated happy birthday to new big brother Sam!
