I agree, the accident was scary and I don't blame her for being upset about it.  It's just that her first instinct, upon arriving at the hospital ER, was to photograph her daughters lying on backboard

In what way would ANYONE other than this idjit consider vaginal birth to be 'non-conventional'.  Even in this day and age, most births are vaginal.  As to the 'little to no pain meds', once again, sou

Do you think Jill is trying to get Plexus sales into the Church grift via Renee? Like, Jill knows that even her marks will say no to adding Plexus in with the cd, book and donation box, but a Godly young woman earning money to do Godly things might get a foot in the door? 

Otherwise, I really can't see what Renee is going to bring to the table. Her friends are all Jill's friends and I doubt they'll buy from Renee if they aren't already buying from Jill.

How is selling Plexus “godly” though?

Imagine what Jill's magic tweezers could do to the eyebrows on the Coverett women. She'd have them all sporting sperm-brows like poor Nurie. 

I think Heidi will prefer to keep her brows. I hope so. This is one of many tests the poor young woman will face while dealing with a cunning, jealous mother-in-law.

I hope Heidi's parents don't abandon her like Anna's have.  I get the feeling that Heidi has a pretty supportive family.

As much as I dont agree with them, they seem pretty warm.

Tim has to be privately seething over the sisters’ “sluttish” dresses, so unlike his pure sisters. 

Or, maybe, he's learning that his sisters-in-law actually AREN'T sluttish.

Actually, her husband is all the way on the right. I saw her holding hands with him in another pic, so even though he looks like he could be a sibling, he's not!

I thought for sure he was a sibling. So the Coveretts only have six kids? Do they even count as fundies with only six blessings?

He's probably picturing Heidi in one of those sluttish dresses. 

I sincerely hope that Tim can break away from his nutjob mother.

I saw Heidi's mom wrote in the comments that the proposal happened during family photoshoot. That was their excuse to get her dressed up and at the park.

They arranged the photoshoot, and Heidi at first didn't know Tim was there

So Tim and his almost-new in-laws scheduled the surprise proposal while BME was away on one of her "yearly" vacations? Interesting. 

Could this explain why Jill has been a bit huffy lately and took a full week to mention the proposal herself?

Yep, Jilly is pissed that she was left out and that one of her kids did something independently of her. I'm glad she's mad. 

May Tim and Heidi be the first of many independent-Rod moves to come. I just hope that Spiteful Mama doesn't ruin their wedding.

Heidi should avoid wearing a headpiece at her wedding!

Pastor: If anyone here has a reason why Tim!  And Heidi should not be joined in holy wedlock, speak now or - 

Jill: (clears throat, stands up, and motions to her offspring to join her at the front of the church for a holy rendition of "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover."

Not all fundies are quiverfull.  The ones we talk about generally are.  

Although if Jill is the one a person has been most exposed to, she would make it seem a basic requirement.

No wonder Jill is pissed she rightfully wasn’t invited to the engagement photoshoot. Jill would have made it all about her and been horribly singing and shoving herself into every photo/video.

Huh Heidi and her mom got your number Jill the spotlight hog!

I wonder how far JillR's hurt will go? Has Jill decided to shun(ish) Tim? Will T&H be invited to hang with the Rods for the upcoming holidays? I'm sure she'll keep them in her family pictures, because she likes the numbers. Maybe no FL for Tim (&Heidi) next year.

I'd argue that waiting to congratulate her oldest son and his fiancee on their engagement was a Jill-shun. No way that was an accident.

IIRC Ruby is the next step for Jill, but there are still a few more steps to the top of the Plexus pyramid. I think the sister wives are emerald which is the top or at least up there.

Don’t you mean “tippy top”?  That’s what Jill always says because “top” is apparently not high enough to suit her.

Tim has been on the wrong side of BME many times. He's used to it. Usually, a bunch of flowers and a sappy card set things right until the next transgression. 

There's no way Jill can stop Kaylee and Jonathan from hanging out with the newest Rodrigues family. Renee is old enough to go with them. David does what he wants.

Queen Jill's little empire may be slowly crumbling.

Is Jill going to make Renee co-chair the Single Teen/Young Adult Adult Ladies group with Miss Ashley Tucker, who is a sweet, twenty-eight-year-old, single Christian lady?  Miss Tucker waits with contentment for the right man to come along and rescue her. She's Dobby the Tucker House Elf at this point, I suspect. 

Poor Renee. I wonder how content she is after her mother (probably) drove off her Mystery Man. Jill is vicious. 

Jill is not a "full-time ministry wife." She's a frenzied Plexus Pusher with a lazy husband. Who's she trying to fool? Blah, blah, blah.

And DON'T let MIL Jill do your hair.  Even if she begs.  Even if she gets down on her severely bad knee to beg.  JUST SAY NO.

Actually, I think her sisters will have the dress and hair covered.  At least I hope so.

I take back what I said about Tim's attire in the family picture.  He did get the memo on what to wear.  He wore blue, like everyone else.  This might be his only blue shirt, but he blended in well.  And made an effort.  Good for him.

He did got the memo because all of that was organised solely for the proposal.

Does Heidi's family also homeschool?

eh it’s not funny and very clunky. 

Sorry everyone.

Hostess Jill is most certainly a dingdong!
