Izzy withdraws and looks like he's sucking on his thumb or hand. He also tosses Sam over to the side of the sofa to sit by Derick. Some of this sibling stuff is probably normal, but I felt bad for the kids. Derick was too busy performing for Jill's camera to notice them. 5 Link to comment

And as Israel repositioned Samuel, (I don’t want to say knocked him down, but there it is) Jill never flinched with the recording. 4 Link to comment

I wish my parents would have told me to/taught me to smile more naturally. There are so many photos with me with that squished face, squinty-eyed smile. Come to think of it, my dad often took spontaneous photos without warning. I'll bet he did that so he'd have some photos with my face natural. LOL 4 Link to comment

I haven't mastered smiling naturally on cue. I think it often takes more effort to try to make a natural smile when you're not smiling already. YMMV. 1 5 Link to comment

Oldernowiser March 29, 2019 Share March 29, 2019 (edited) Sam is my favorite. He always has some kind of baby eyeroll going on for these pictures.

Popular Post mynextmistake March 29, 2019 Popular Post Share March 29, 2019 Day 1183. I have become exceedingly frustrated by my continued captivity. The male guard spends most of his time out of the hovel studying human anatomy with Becky from the third row, so on most days I am watched only by the female guard and my fellow captive, Yaaay. Their insipidness is most vexing. Yaaay demands hygiene items as rewards for mastering even basic information, and the female guard continually writes blog entries that serve only to illustrate her ignorance about the basic rules of English grammar. Occasionally, we are provided with minor stimulation in the form of outings to a place called “Wal-Mart.” The female guard makes continuous comments under her breath about the necklines of our fellow shoppers while choosing her groceries by color. Sadly, she is still in her beige period, which means that our meals still consist largely of hardtack and oversalted gruel. I continue to attempt to make my escape whenever the opportunity arises, but I am still thwarted by my diminutive size and poor muscle development. Someday I shall break free. Until then, I will continue to use this journal to document my captivity for future generations. For now, though, I must once again secure it so that my captors will not find it. There is a pile of fashion magazines in the living room that I am sure the female guard has never perused. I shall place it amongst those until I have a chance to take it up again. 68 34 Link to comment

Popular Post mynextmistake March 29, 2019 Popular Post Share March 29, 2019 I actually am starting to feel kind of bad for making fun of Jill. (Derick not so much.) I think she’s trying, in her own way, to be a good mom and wife. She’s not the most engaged parent but I do think she loves her boys. I honestly wish she’d consider getting a part-time job. Maybe start with something simple, like a cashier position in a smaller, low-volume store (like a Christian bookstore or something), and build up the confidence to try something new. Plus she’d meet new people — Jill always seems to be alone. Jessa and Jinger and even Joy seem to have friends, but we rarely see Jill with anyone but the boys, Derick or Miss Cathy. She might have been hoping to make friends through Derick’s school but I think she just doesn’t have anything in common with his classmates. 33 Link to comment

Agreed. I had a coworker who was a super sheltered homeschooler and his wife was too. I remember him talking about trying to take her to a work function, and her being absolutely scandalized by, well, everything--alcohol, his coworkers, the conversation, etc. Even if it isn't that extreme, I'd think she'd feel really out-of-place at any of the law school functions. I had terrible imposter syndrome in grad school--hard to go from the trailer park to grad school LOL--and felt so out-of-place even when nobody was trying to make me feel excluded. In fact, people actively were trying to be nice to me, and I still felt like shit. I think even if Derick's classmates tried to be nice with her in a superficial way, she'd still be very uncomfortable. 19 Link to comment

How much of the Bates girls working is for television purposes and how much of it is real is hard to say? I question the Bates as much as I do the Duggars. Piano lessons and cleaning houses have flexible time tables than working retail, which is good for working moms with lots of little kids. I doubt Tori is working since having the baby. As for Michael, good for her wanting to be a nurse, but I have a strong feeling that won't work out for her. 10 Link to comment
