The couple discussed their plans for Christmas decorations next year when Derick suggested they may be looking to add another member to their family.
While explaining his plans to add Nativity-themed decoration, the former Counting On star said: "I'm thinking we're gonna put a live sheep and have a live Nativity and have our newborn infant- that we may or may not have this time next year- as baby Jesus."
Jill, 29, laughed as said "no" as her husband continued: "And then add a live animal."
They are already the parents to sons Samuel, three, and Israel, five.
Derick's comment come after he and Jill were banned from the Duggar family's recent holiday bash.

The couple’s feud with their famous family is still ongoing and they were noticeably absent from Jill’s parents Jim Bob and Michelle’s annual ugly sweater Christmas party last week.
Jill’s best friend Amy, her husband Dillon and their son Daxton also did not attend the festive party, while neither couple attended the family’s 2020 Fall Festival also at the Duggar home.
Derick confirmed that he and Jill weren't invited when he told a fan on social media: “No, we were not invited or told about it.”

After being left out of the family party, the rebellious Duggar was spotted wearing pants while attending church.
Not being invited to Jim Bob and Michelle's parties aren't a surprise, as Jill has been vocal about breaking away from her family since she left the TLC show.
She previously told People magazine: “Our control to choose what jobs we were allowed to accept and even where we were allowed to live was taken away from us.”

Derick, who married Jill in 2014, also expressed his frustration about not being able to explore business opportunities while the couple starred on the show.
The father-of-two also told the outlet: “The first few years of our marriage, we spent time and money working towards opportunities only to hit a dead end when we'd be told, 'Well, you're not allowed to do that.’”
