How long until her natural eyebrows are Jillercized? 😔

[oliviabenson]

And her hair fried to death?

[GeeGolly]

For some reason JillR is mostly leaving her girls' hair alone now. For years she curled their hair the minute it was long enough.

She just turned 14, so any day now. ☹️

Jill TEASED poor Tessie's hair. She's too young to have done that herself.

Has there been any word about how Phillip is doing in college?

As far as I can see, field hockey stick eyebrows were never popular at any time. The NotNurie may have 90s brows. My preference is something close to the 50s/00s brows.

None of these have the super arched part on the inner eye, like Nurie’s. Only the outer eye.

Yup. For obvious reasons the JillR eyebrows were never a thing. Ever.

Phillip is used to sitting in a chair listening to someone lecture, so he's probably doing OK at the bible college unless he's running out of money. The school tries to find jobs for students to avoid their leaving because of money, so he could be working part-time too. 

Jill's too busy grifting and planning for the anniversary/wedding extravaganza to write a post supposedly from Phillip. Eventually, we'll get a "Hello! This is Phillip Rodrigues on my Mahmo's phone" post, complete with emojis, odd capitalization, and praise for BME.

Ok, so I may be behind in the beauty world, but I have never done anything to my eyebrows, aside from trimming the odd overgrowing hair or two.  I was never a fan of the drawn-on look and felt that it was a lot of stuff to go through just to conform two small strips of hair on my face (being of Eastern European descent, Lord Daniel knows I have enough facial hair to contend with without adding in eyebrows). So I really do not understand why this minutiae is a priority with Jill.  I mean really, she supposedly has a super-busy schedule oiling the grift machine, homeschooling, taking care of her man, cooking delicious home-made meals, being an outstanding homemaker/decorator/gardener, running her Plexus empire, maintaining her social media kingdom, going to church, planning weddings, going on vacations, dinners out with her hunk, and generally (supposedly) raising her brood.  So why is there such a need for her to pay so much misdirected attention to her daughters and their looks?  Those girls are naturally beautiful.  So why not LET them be beautiful?  And let them choose how they look for themselves?  I'm sure the teens and tweens would LOVE to explore different hairstyles and makeup looks on their own, as well as develop their own likes/interests.  Just like a good parent should, she should set guidelines and let them do their thing!  Oh, wait...narcissist.

I had to look twice at this picture because the girl on the bottom right looks like Janessa. Counting the girls, it's likely it's Sofia. She could have been Janessa's twin. Hopefully Janessa won't look as ill as little Sofia does now.

Yeah I have virgin brows because my mom said NEVER touch them so I never have (just pencil and brow gel if I’m doing a fill face of make up).
 

Brow shape really can change your makeup look (for better or worse) so I understand why some people spend a lot of time on them, but I think Jill wants to control EVERY ASPECT of the girls’ “presentation” to the world because they are extensions of herself- not individual people.

Jill hasn't acknowledged Hannah's birthday yet. I'm worried that her picture will have her freshly plucked eyebrows. 

She got to Tessie's at that age.

I get pissed off just thinking about it.  Also, Hannah has gorgeous, healthy hair.  How long will it be before it looks like Renee’s?

Strangely, I’ve been following this family for years and the dark haired girl between Sofia (the janessa lookalike) and Hannah is totally unfamiliar. 

tessie’s hair looks ridiculously teased!

That's Angry Olivia. She's left out of a lot of pictures. 

[Lindsay Loo Hoo]

The way that Nurie is holding Janessa in that photo is really disturbing me.

[Lady Edith]

I think Olivia is our one shot at a defection and a tell-all.  She is the forgotten Rodling who never seems to have her turn.  She is still years away from being marketed for marriage and seems to fall through the cracks a lot. 

[Teriacky]

Tessie’s hairdo in that picture makes her look like a 1960’s country western singer!

I know I am late to reply on this post, but just now watched it.  Nurie appears to be riding in a van, in the rain and seems distracted.  Probably getting ready for Hurricane Ian and yet, she had to do this video for BME.  

[ginger90]

🤦‍♀️ Yes this is the bathroom 🤦‍♀️

[Absolom]

Wow, those filters!

[Ohiopirate02]

Does facetune not work on necks or was Jill being lazy?  

[GeeGolly]

How low to post pictures of yourself having diarrhea. I mean not that I believe she's actually going or actually uses Plexus, but really, how gross. 

[BradandJanet]

Is diarrhea really considered weight loss? I thought that came from consuming fewer calories over time. No wonder she has to keep taking this stuff. A few days after stopping, the weight comes back.

Plexus will get rid of any excess fluids that may make you look fat.  It only works if you normally retain water.  The results are also temporary.

Jill looks puffy in a lot of her photos. Maybe her body is fighting back.

I had a CT scan today. Having had the barium drink, I got my reset!

They've spent 25 years making babies, moving to avoid CPS, grifting instead of working,  forgetting to feed and educate their children, shopping for home decor, taking vacations they can't afford, always expecting other people to pay, driving around in a crowded van to make their children sing for food and money, taking photographs when and where they shouldn't, clogging the drains in public and private pools by swimming in street clothes, ignoring rules and defacing public property, complaining about what other people do and how they dress, and feeling persecuted when their behavior is criticized.

So much to celebrate. 

[GeeGolly]

JillR should write cards for Hallmark. I mean really, what says Happy Anniversary more than this? 🥂🍾

Jillpm and fundies in general seem to think they have the best marriages by default because they don’t have sex or kiss before marriage. That heathens can’t possibly have a good relationship. It’s what they drill into their kids head from a very early age. If they have sex before the wedding night, even with the person you marry, there is irreparable damage done, and your marriage cannot ever be as good as it could have been had you waited. Waiting to kiss puts you on an even higher horse to look down from.
 

In reality, zero people envy them.

This nonsense works only because both partners--but especially women--are taught to suffer in silence if/when the marriage goes bad. 

No envy here.

Where's David's anniversary tribute to Jill? Hello! This is David Rodrigues . . . .

[heckkitty]

Good lord Daniel please warn a girl before you post a picture of these 2 making out. I nearly lost my breakfast 🤢

[Salacious Kitty]

So, are they on a romantic getaway? I seriously doubt she's home on this milestone day. 🙄

According to her post he helps with the homeschooling so maybe that's where he's at 🤣 🤣

I highly doubt these two grifters paid for both weddings, I'm sure the Kellers contributed to Nurie's and the fools donating to them contributed the rest.

I like to announce that in our 17 years of marriage we raised one kid and seven cats-together.

We also feed our kid-together

We take her on trips to have fun and not to perform like a circus animal-together

We never had to move states because CPS was after us-together

We go out and buy our kid appropriate clothing for every occasion and weather event -together

We don't make our kid work in a sweatshop to print religious tracts that just get thrown in the trash by 99.9% of people who receive them-together

We send our kid to bed at a normal time and at not dark o'clock -together

DBD was an adult male ogling a teenage Jill.  I seriously doubt he was a virgin when they were married.

If I were envious, please have me checked into a facility somewhere for an evaluation.

Feeling persecuted again J and D? Gee maybe it’s because you mistreat your kids?

These 2 are definitely on a vacation somewhere cozy. Jill just finished her reset so she is feeling ravenous!
