I think Lauren is an immature drama queen and probably not someone I would want to spend much time with, but I really hate calling her miscarriage a heavy period.  At some point she took a pregnancy t

how embarassing for Josiah to have his mother bring up his sexual urges as part of her talk at the conference.  Those urges are normal for all us us, especially if you are trying to be celibate.  If h

Having large breasts does  not mean more milk is produced and having small breasts does not mean less milk is produced.  That's not how breastfeeding works.

The only clothing that has been purchased definitely leans toward a boy, but really are unisex. I'm sure Lauren has plenty of pink girlie clothing and these items certainly could be girlied-up. 

If its real, it feels like it has Jessa written all over it. She would definitely take pleasure in getting the interwebs all curious and talking about it.

He was really stupid if he thought Fayetteville was going to be welcoming to him. 

Trent Talbot, the CEO of Cameron's publishers said ""On Friday in Fayetteville, a group of drag queens dressed in demonic outfits showed up to a children’s book reading filled with conservative and Christian parents and their children."  At least 50 community libraries have refused or not responded to Cameron's attempt to book his program there.  The Christian Nationalists are belng stifled.

That made my day!  I'm not providing a link, it was on foxnews.

Good comments in a article by KNWA.

The protests centered around concern for kids who may be queer or struggling with their gender identity.

The pastor of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Fayetteville, Clint Schnekloth, strongly believed there could have been kids in attendance Friday struggling with their gender identity. His concern is that religious messaging could be negatively impacting kids.

“It’s really harmful to trans kids and other youth who are working through issues of gender identity and sexual orientation because he’s basically trying to shut down any space for them to consider those kinds of things,” said Schnekloth.   https://www.nwahomepage.com/knwa/brave-books-kirk-cameron-stop-in-fayetteville-for-book-tour/

There were drag queens and drag queen allies. The allies were dressed in black and white, and their faces were painted white. I don't know enough about it to know the meaning behind it, but if I'm honest, they were a wee bit scary, or maybe off putting. But demonic - nope.

Why are we talking about Kirk Cameron in Josiah and Lauren's thread? 

As far as baby news, like someone said above .........

They're up to E right? And what does Josiah do for employment?

Because Righteous Kirk wanted to read his no-doubt poorly written idiotic children's book at a public library near the Duggars' homes, and somebody asked if the Duggars -- including Lauren -- would be going. 

No idea how many Josiah and Lauren have or what they do for a living. I hope Josiah has an actual job that isn't Jim Bob's used car lot or construction.

I think they still have family there though. I recall the mother returning "home" to give birth shortly after they moved to AR.

I figured that's because her doctors were there. She was over 40, so I doubt she was home birthing. 

I don't get the one registry listed in GA though. They'd have to make a road trip there to pick up their haul.

I figured they put GA for the GA folks to look up the registry, but the gifts would be delivered to Lauren in AR. Still doesn't really make sense though.

No it doesn't. Lauren's GA folks would know she moved to AR like 5 years ago. Maybe longer? I really don't pay attention to these people.

The only reason I can think of to have a baby registry for your THIRD child (not counting any miscarriages) is if that child will be a different sex (oops! I mean gender) than the previous two. 

Baby registries give completion discounts. You get 10-15% off your order, when you purchase during a certain window based off your due date. You also get sample boxes and diaper discounts. It makes sense to make a registry every time you have a kid, regardless of whether you advertise it to friends and family, just to get the discount.

WOACB is saying that Josiah has built his own home on property he owns and has a mortgage.  She says Josiah & Lauren signed the paperwork for a mortgage for a $573,750 30-year loan.  An actual mortgage with an actual mortgage company.  Of course, that's an IBLP no-no.  So they're apparently out of JB's control.  Good for him and Lauren.

I'd sure like to know what they might have been doing to qualify for that kind of mortgage, especially in Arkansas. I call BS on that until I see proof.

Since I first saw this post I have seen stories that the house is on the big house property, or on property Jim Bob owned but sold to them, and at the same time stories that Josiah and Lauren have “broken free”.

Yes, I think WOACB said that in her video, that it's property they purchased from JB.  I don't think she said where it's located, but I assumed it was not near the big house.  When I said he's out of JB's control, I was more referring to the mortgage.  That's verboten in IBLP.

Adjacent to JB property, and adjacent to the property of the folks where Jfelon made the midnight pepto bismal delivery. That little school house church Jana and the howlers, umm remodeled or whatever is a few lots up the road too.

Josiah and Lauren "breaking away" from JB would be even less of a break away than Jinger. It would just mean the are fully into whatever dwain swanson is into. Right now dwain is in the lot purchasing and house building game, with Joe selling the end product. Same game as the duggars

Qualifying?  Well he does work and earn an income. Then there is the rumored payoffs JB had to give each adult offspring after Derick and Jill sued him.  Owning the lot outright helped because it gives them instant equity. 

Accuracy  of amount? Probably pretty accurate, I live in a small village in central Illinois.  Nowhere near Chicago.   People purchased the almost 2 acre  lot next door and want to build a  house.  Quoted price: $215 a square foot.   A basement - an extra $80,000.    Building costs are crazy right now.  So they are going with a modular home and a crawl space - $320,000. Which I think is a ridiculous amount for a home of that type.   I’m not bad mouthing their choice- just sad that they couldn’t get the house they originally wanted
