Lordy, I say more personalized things to my Chihuahua on his birthday. 😞

This went up 4 hours ago, so about 6:45pm central. Better late than never, I guess. 

The sentiments? Trite, but typical. So not "out of the box," Jabbie.

[Zella]

One of the things that creeps me out about Duggar birthday wishes is they always sound like a damn eulogy.

What date is their birthday?

January 12, 1990, so they both hit the big 3-0. 

[ouinason]

That seems like a significant age to warrant such generic birthday wishes.  I hope they had a party, or hung out with friends, or something fun.

[Sew Sumi]

Boobchelle probably took Jana out to get her free drippy sundae. 😟

Well, she grew up Gothard, too, apparently......This is what brainwashing looks like. ☹️

You only allow people to have a limited list of words in their vocabularies -- and you make sure to hammer into them odd, backwards and confusing definitions for those words. Best way to ensure they'll all be on the exact same wavelength as everybody else in your cult......and programmed to totally misunderstand and fear what they hear as the distortions coming from everybody outside the cult. And only a few will be able to get their heads together enough to think their way out of the mess and depart.

I get the impression that you're either that Gothard....or you see through the horror of it all and get the hell out.

And that all the remainers who look as if they aren't that Gothard are just putting on a gloss of normality to fool everybody. While underneath they remain that Gothard as hell. Because how will they take over the world, as God desires, if outsiders are suspicious of them? 

Could be paranoia on my part, of course!

It's possible JD published the message since it's a joint account. 

It's also possible Abbie wrote and reverted back to her childhood since she wanted to get a message out, but is also a busy new mom. She did give birth less than a week ago.

Agreed--I am cutting Abby some slack since she pushed a baby out of her nether regions just a few days ago, and, again, Jana is not HER twin. Rightly or wrongly, I suspect Abby has more pressing priorities right now than wishing Jana a happy birthday.

Yup, Jana, the dirt pile would've continued to be your "world" if the show hadn't come along to send you on trips. That "thank you" note should really be addressed to TLC.

I spy a hospital bracelet.

All I can think is how they were probably eaten alive by ticks and chiggers. :S

I was going to say at someone's house until I noticed the plastic covered carafes in the cabinet. And the big thing on the table to the left. Is that a beverage server?

[PikaScrewChu]

Wow. Ivy looks very similar to how Felicity looked at that age.

I looked up Jed!2020’s address from the filings. His street has like 12 house, but the house numbers are like mid to high 2000s. Why not 1, then 2, and so on? I know the house numbers are based on the distance from some geographical point or street, but what’s the advantage?

I realize I've only given birth to two babies (separately) and may be unqualified to suggest this WTF, but how do you know which baby is kicking when with a twin pregnancy?  

For part two I'll once again accept that I'm not in the professional ranks among female humans who've given birth and ask, are females more active and powerful in the womb than males, making my question number one irrelevant?

Since they've also said that, as actual I've-been-born humans, J.D. was the quieter one and Jana the louder and more rambunctious...

My guess is that after birth Meeechelle got a grudge of some level against Jana because of her noisy rambunctiousness (???) and possibly also because, since Jana was the other woman in the house, Meeechelle felt jealousy of her that she hadn't felt with her sons.....

So....post-birth rewriting of history. "She's the one who was kicking me all that time! I can just tell!"

Ah, that makes total sense.  Thank you for sorting that out for an amateur with only two births of females who is unfamiliar with the ins and outs of birthing at the professional level.

For some reason Jeremiah went to alert without his twin. Thus the Sinner Twin moniker. Those of you who know better correct me if I’m wrong.

 I’m not surprised. They were setting up his run even back then. Can’t be having pictures of him at a paramilitary camp.  Thank you for answering my question.

You're welcome. I'm not a professional either. I've just convinced myself I can read Meeechelle's tiny mind. 😁

My DIL had identical twins and she could always tell which baby was kicking. They shared a sac (ETA: my mistake, they each had their own) and placenta so maybe that would restrict movement?

Yes, but how does that translate to knowing the sex of each child? Unless she had an ultrasound and memorized the positions.  This whole BS story  it’s pretty much just Michelle‘s way of keeping Jana down. It’s no surprise Jill kind of picked up on the “resent one of your kids” vibe from mama.

Doodlebug can offer more info, but I don't think it is as out of the ordinary as we think for twin moms to know which is which.

I had twins.  I could tell which one was kicking, who had the hiccups, when one had been asleep/not moving awhile (even if the other one was active), etc. They were positioned vertically left and right and so for the most part it was pretty easy.  I also knew how it correlated when they came out because they label the babies A and B based on position (A being lower/first to come out typically). 

And for whatever it's worth, their early personalities did kind of line up to what I noticed in utero.  One of them very laid back/low energy, and the other much more intense. We saw it on many of the dozen ultrasounds I had with them too.  Note: I do not hold this against him, but I did find it interesting when they were infants.  

The problem with Michelle is how she phrases it and acts about it, not that she can state which twin was kicking more.  If it was "it was so interesting how different they were even from the time they were in utero" that would be very different than "Jana kicked me a lot (that bitch)". 

[Temperance]

As far as I know all the boys from John down have spent time at ALERT. Jeremiah has spent a lot more time as we can tell. He and Josiah have spent the most time at ALERT so far. 

[Sew Sumi]

Jed did not attend ALERT. Neither did John. 

[Tikichick]

Honestly I'm surprised that they felt Joe needed to be sent to ALERT.  I can't visualize him stepping toe even a millimeter off their chalk line to cause them to pull that trigger.

I agree.  Going along with his thriftiness, maybe Alert gave JB a 2 for 1 deal.
