Nice job by Jill of completely ignoring the other poor Rodlet on this grocery adventure. 

No mention of this daughter AT ALL.  So weird.  And why does she always cut off the heads when filming?  There was a time when she cut off Janessa's head when she was telling us what a great shopping buddy she was.  This happens a lot.  I always think one of the littles must be filing when this happens, but maybe Jill just can't focus.

Right? It’s as if she wasn’t even there. All while Jill babbled on about Janessa.

She did say how Janessa is just like her and we all know how fond of herself she is.

It’s Jill’s MO, pitting her children against each other.

She said Sofia was just like her. Which I don't see at. all. 

Janessa? A clone.

I get confused over who is like her, who is a clone...... 

[beckie]

She has said that Sofia is just like her, that Sadie is her mini me, and Janessa is just like her. I think she thinks ALL of her kids are just like her. And she doesn't think that's a bad thing. (Except for Olivia who gets left out even when she's there).

Because Jill cannot conceive of her children as being individuals with their own WANTS and NEEDS.   They merely exist as extensions of her.

Which is textbook narcissism.

Is Olivia the “dark one” as Jill referred to one of the younger girls? Maybe the kids are happier when Jill is fawning over someone else, that way they don’t have to fake smile for the camera.

Hannah is the "dark" one. She also doesn't have bangs. That's about as rebellious as it gets in Jill's house.

That is the child sized cart for the little kids to push around for fun. The height of it and the flag on the pole indicate that.

They look like waifs. You would think they could find clothing in their sizes at the thrift store.

Their dishwasher broke and damaged the floors. 
 

aka please send Jill $. 

Also what’s up with her nails? They are unique that’s for sure.

Those are her nails from the Plexus convention. She's fudging with timelines again.

Nurie is the favorite one! Once Nurie gives birth to a  Jillian Davia she will be the favored one forever.

That's too bad, but Jill is very, very lucky to have a hubby who's a master carpenter, master plumber, and master electrician. He'll get everything fixed in a jiffy. 

[GeeGolly]

I think the girls names will N names too. Nora, Niamh or maybe the dreaded Nevaeh.

Of course, he's probably the one who installed the leaky dishwasher in the first place.

Hmm, that's very telling that she talks about giving up on a marriage.   I thought he was the bestest most perfect man on earth?  Guess even she is disappointed on how lazy he turned out to be.

Because he is stoned on hummingbird juice and just got woken from a nap to be dragged somewhere by Jill.

[oliviabenson]

We all have hunk envy according to Jill!

[BetyBee]

Me thinks the "lady" doth protest too much. Jill's constant posting about her happy marriage and great love for David, indicates her unhappiness in her marriage, imo. She's stuck with Dave and she's trying to convince herself that she's happy or at least, that her choice to stick with him no matter what, was a godly choice.

I have always thought that. There is no need for post after post about how much you love "this man" unless you are not only trying to convince us, but also yourself.

Till death do us apart! Or Dave leaves her for a single mom with blue hair who wears tank tops!

[zenme]

Just worry about your soul and take care of your kids, you hypocrite.

[BradandJanet]

Jill certainly has a collection of baseball caps, although this one looks like something a train conductor would wear. She should have worn her pink cowgirl hat. It would draw additional attention to her countenance.

Is that Pastor Steve Cowgill of the famous shoulder massages? I thought he was in Ohio at Believers Baptist. A lot of these small church pastors look like older versions of Hunk, so it's hard to tell. 

I wonder how much money Jill and David are collecting on this trip. Maybe each save soul brings in a cash bounty.

Regardless of what she says, if a rich relative (or anyone really) died and left them ALL their millions,  I'm convinced Jill would stop with her Christian bs and go on a permanent vacation.

I’ve been married-as of the 30th, 33 years, and even in the best of circumstances marriage has it highs and lows, and struggles. I think she’s being disingenuous if she proclaims herself to be SOOO in love every day. I’m married to a good man—a wonderful husband and father, but being human, there are days I’d like to strangle the man. She’s lying. Just looking at David makes me want to box his ears. I think looking at 2 small packs of TP in a shopping cart for a family of 50 would make me feel resentful on some days, honestly. 
As for bragging about her kids being like her, I know most people would like their kids to be better than them. 
She’s a narcissist and a liar.

It's unclear when they were in KY because the church didn't post a flyer as they usually do. They were probably there at the end of June.

She's known for fudging timelines, so they could have easily happened at different times. A month ago. 😃

@BradandJanet said it maybe? was Steve Cowgill.  I don't remember a name, just the shoulder massage, which was creepy.

Yeah I remember that, but don't remember his name. Too lazy to look up Palomar to see if it's the same guy. They all look alike. 😃

[CalicoKitty]

I don't remember the name, either.  But I do remember the massage, and it was creepy.

[Salacious Kitty]

Went ahead and looked it up. It's a different guy, Joe Moore. 

Poor Gabriel was so SMALL when the massage happened. And Jill was so HAPPY about it. Gross.

Surely JillR wears baseball bonnets and not manly baseball caps. 🧢👒

Because her parents told Jill she must marry young and have many many blessings. Dave was like okay where is the cake and a submissive wife?
