3 is enough

Well they have only been married since August and she is 35 now so it might take longer. They seem quite content. If I had to care for my siblings since childhood I would be in no rush to have my own kids.🤷🏼‍♀️ Obviously they are going to say they want kids (and they probably do) but secretly they may be quite content to have some time as just a couple.

Ted from the homeless shelter looked very familiar to me. Has he been in a previous episode?

I also thought the Troubles may have influenced Roger’s mother’s thinking. Of course the fact that Nancy had a child did not help. My parents were married in 1958. She was Catholic-he was Anglican. He had no intention of converting but he did promise to raise the children as Catholics. They were married in the chapel of a large Catholic Church. They could not be married in the sanctuary because he was not Catholic. There was no problem with either family- everyone was accepting. The priest was a family friend and he even went to the reception. I do wonder if people were more accepting in Canada (specifically Montreal)- there was lots of intermarriage in the extended family by either religion or language (French-English), and no one seemed to mind.

Influencers weren’t a thing back in 2008 when the last recession hit. If the markets continue along last weeks’ trajectory and things go downhill it will certainly be interesting to see how Carlin and Evan fare. I would bet they have not put aside any kind of emergency fund.

And he was mouthing “Elbows up!” at the camera. He is a national hero today. 🇨🇦😁

And here we go! Yesterday she posted a reel showing her doing the pregnancy test, complete with “ tears of joy”. A day later and we are hearing about “how difficult” it has been. 🙄 It’s going to be a long 7 months.

Surprise! Carlin is pregnant with number 3. Just posted it on Instagram.

Yes. I had the same thought.

I find it fascinating that they all put her on a pedestal and practically idolize her when she essentially pawned them off on their older siblings. Popping out 19 kids does not make you an exceptional mother.

Wow. I guess they are learning that God does not always provide. I wonder how much they spent fixing up this place? How much the animals cost to feed? Anyone remember that small camper they renovated never to be seen again? They really have made some poor financial decisions over the years. I can only imagine how Erin feels watching Carlin in Dubai and Whitney in NYC.

The choice of Dubai as a destination is baffling to me. But the first post was essentially a GRWM so I do wonder if there is some sort of sponsorship involved. As far as the go, go, go lifestyle is concerned, they are influencers. They have to keep people’s interest. I’m not defending them, it’s definitely detrimental to Layla and Zade, but if they had a normal routine they would lose followers and income. Alyssa is constantly criticized for her boring content because “it’s always the same thing” and “ she never takes the kids anywhere”. So they are damned if they do, and damned if they don’t. 🤷🏼‍♀️ ETA: she is promoting the hotel in her stories. I’m guessing it’s some sort of sponsorship. First up: couples massage at the spa. And looks like they are eating margharita pizza and steak. Adventurous choices. 😂

I agree with @MollyMelrose that Mandy is a younger version of her mother. I suspect this will be the downfall of the marriage. Not a fan of either Mandy or her mom. How the dad ( who I really like) put up with her for all those years is beyond me. Wonder if it will eventually come out that Mandy’s parents also had to get married because her mom got pregnant. The whole thing was kind of meh but it was a pilot so I will give it a chance for a few more episodes.

According to Instagram they are on vacation at a beach somewhere with Evan’s parents. Given the whole Milton situation and the aftermath of Helene I have to wonder where they are and why they didn’t cancel their plans.

Up next: Hailey meets her little brother aka “new best friend”. 🙄

Didn’t something similar happen to Zach and Whitney’s little guy Jadon? I hope everything turns out ok. How scary to have your baby sent to a different hospital.
