Robyn Brown: She wanted the family, but got stuck with the man.

LOL. BWAHAHAHAHA! There's no way that's what she's doing. Do you really think they can afford $1500 for this: https://www.fully.com/standing-desks/treadmill-desks.html? I'm sure that all Sobbyn is doing is using a treadmill and replying to email using her phone.

Oh, and that's $1500 for just the smallest, most basic configuration. If you start customizing that desk with the contour top, change the material, or add any goodies, the price ramps up quickly.

Maybe Robyn will put on her best whiny face, and cry to the fam that she really really really needs this desk!  Seems to work for her sister wife.

Is Sol's Batman shirt a wee lil' bit of shade-throwing at Meri?

They're dragging this band out again?  Who besides Utah people and unfortunately, us, has ever heard of this band?  Meri used to be their groupie, but she dropped them like a hot potato when the catfish came along.

A CD by a group no one has heard of in an age where CDs are dying - typical Brown Brain Trust marketing idea.  These people - does the word clueless come to mind?

They "released" this back when they did the commitment ceremony, what 4 years ago? They must have tons left and are trying to rid themselves of the inventory.

Whoever said they are liking Kody more these days - I agree.  Good for him, thinking of his baby girl and not putting her in harm's way because of her selfish older sister's whims!  I GET that it's her wedding - but sometimes you ALSO have to think of other's welfare.

Mykelti doesn't care about anyone's welfare, she told them to "suck it up". Robyn looked positively pissed and I don't blame her--also, those "heaters" they got don't work well unless you're right under them.

I was thinking more of a kerosene heater, like some of these: https://www.google.com/search?q=kerosene+heater&rlz=1C1GGRV_enUS751US751&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjs3f_QpaPZAhXh8YMKHXWjArkQ_AUI8gIoAQ&biw=1280&bih=590. I've used another style that's basically a pot with a chimney, into which you put kerosene or fuel oil and light it. That style comes with the downside of a hint of open flame at the top of the chimney, though. The pictured heaters would be much safer.

[TurtlePower]

Those are pretty awesome! I always refer to them as "football player heaters" 'cause you seem 'em during cold, outdoor games. Provably would have worked better than the ones they had for the wedding. Hubby and I were outside for a dinner with friends in town--we had TWO of the kind the Browns used at our table and it was still cold.

Perhaps they should have used the cd's, unwrapped, and written in sharpie on the backs of them, and thrown those at the couple  - no need to buy frisbies then  :-)

That is brilliant!  Those that wanted to, could pick one up & play it.  Or not.

You must be a creative type.  I think I missed out on that gene, and I do admire it in others :)

Only mothers to all when they want to guarantee time in front of the camera when one of the "other" kids gets married or something.  THEN they are all mothers to all kids.

This is really just a thought that flitted through my head after reading your post - have you EVER seen Robyn with Truley in front of the camera?  Or even say a word to her?  We don't see the little ones all that much on Sister Wives - compared to the Duggars for example - but I don't recall ever seeing much interaction with Robyn and ANY of the younger kids that weren't hers.

IIRC, there was an incident on one of the driveways, where Christine asked Robyn to mind Truely when Christine needed to be somewhere.  Robyn screwed up her wizened little face and whined that she had to be somewhere (a game or dance class I think), with her OWN kids. Told me all I needed to know about how polygamy works.

[beautifulanddamned]

I haven't watched this show in a few years and am pretty surprised at the change in Robyn. She clearly started hating Kody sometime during her last pregnancy. She looks bloated and haggard and miserable. Kind of like the other wives.  No adoring glances at the ding-dong, no glorifying polygamy, just gloom and puffiness.  Be careful what you wish for...

Notice Robyn is taking not so subtle digs at Meri with Sol in a Batman t-shirt.  When all the catfish turmoil was happening, she had Sol front and center in Batman pj's, she might argue that it's his favorite cartoon character, but at the time, Sol was 2 years old.  At 2 years old, kids are easily distracted to another favorite and he wasn't out shopping for his own clothes.  I'm not a Meri fan or supporter, but that struck me as just plain mean and vindictive.

A dig at Meri? Probably. But mean? Not to me.  Everyone basically told her she was being catfished and she refused to listen. We all know the rest.

Yeah but this is supposed to be FAMILY.  My kids do stupid things that I TOLD them not to do - but do they listen?  Heck no.  And they need to live their own lives and learn stuff by experience.  But if they DO make mistakes (and trust me, they DO) I don't rub their noses in it.  Putting a 2 year old in batman stuff is just plain vindictive when you are talking about your "oh -so-loved" sister wife!   Meri BROUGHT Robyn into the family.... Meri divorced Kody so that Robyn could be the legal wife (for her kids' sake - blah blah blah) and then Robyn is going to bite the hand that fed her?  Wrong.  Just wrong.   Or at the very least extremely insensitive and unthoughtful.

Robyn helped King Sol dress up for school.  I don't know why, but it's surprising to me that she was that familiar with Newsies.

Maybe it’s the sort of project that he’s supposed to be working on with his parents?  I had some of those when I was in school, but I’m old, so I don’t know if they do them any more. 

[Celia Rubenstein]

I was never assigned a project like that to do with my parents. My daughter was never assigned a project like that to do with me.  

I remember it always being emphasized that we do our projects ourselves, lest we be graded down. My brother once made the most incredible tiny log cabin (complete with a tiny bear skin rug cut from the sherpa lining of my sister's coat! Boy was she pissed!) and he was accused of having help. It was the only time in my life can remember my father going to our school. He told them to cut the shit and boy howdy did they, lol

Of course that was back in the Stone Age.   Parenting styles have changed and maybe teachers expect parents to be more involved in little projects like this. But to me, what is even the point of such an assignment if it is given knowing it won't be representative of the child's abilities? It's like they are being graded on family participation, which is not only meaningless but also unfair.

[jennblevins]

You make a good point about the “like this”. The ones I was thinking of (also in the Stone Age) were more like “cook dinner for your family” at a young enough age that people would object if the parents weren’t involved, for potential safety reasons.

Stuff like building castles out of sugar cubes (or whatever those are) were still meant to be done ourselves.

If I remember correctly (since I have to use the wayback machine to go back to the last century) we were expected to do our own work without any parental assistance.

The first thing that popped into my head was rice krispies that had been dragged over Janelle's floor.

I love that movie!  Mockumentaries like this are among my favorites.

Damn, did Robyn actually make rice krispy treats, or were they store-bought?  Dear King Sol can't be past kindergarten, can he?

Kody really looks like AARP material here.  Mr. Xword and I have been members for years, but the plyg lifestyle he touts really has aged him, not to mention certain wives (like all of them LOL.)  Either TLC is purposely endorsing these dickwad plygs, or they are making their lives look as shitty as I can imagine they are.  You make the call.

Robyn is only sitting on the end of the sofa in this latest episode where her feet are visible, to show off, what we called "hooker shoes" or "Robert Redford, come fuck me pumps" back in the day.

Just an observation from an old lady, that watches way too much TV.

Oh you all, stop ... those blocks are not made of rice crispy treats! Lol they are not croutons, either. I don't know what they are. They actually look like a tiny version of those pressed sawdust bricks you can put in the fireplace. But those are hard as a rock. No way can you stick a toothpick in one of those things.

Lots of people have asked Robyn what the blocks are made of but she has not responded yet. I can't find anything that looks like them on Amazon. Hell, maybe they are rice crispy treats. Who knows!

If memory serves Sol was born in October 2011, so he's six now. First grade I think?
