Two roly-poly babies, both in onesies.

One cute, one not.

🤣 Sorry, I will show myself out now....

Instead of waiting to see if he could button his pants after Thanksgiving Dinner, it appears that Tony chose not to wear any.

We can (and will, it's our job) speculate about Avalon, but am really hoping they are following a trusted doctor's advice re her weight. Both my kids were large babies, we never did whole milk after 1 year, had only occasional treats, were very active and both kids are at healthy weights now. Not sure how active Mykelti and Tony are, it makes a huge difference. 

[JenMcSnark]

Say what you will about Tony (and I agree he is unfortunate looking), it really speaks to me that Christine said in one of the articles about the split that she had to ask Mykelti if it was normal for marriage to be "easy".  

So Mykelti and Tony seem to have a good, easygoing relationship.  Or relative to Kody and Christine's I guess, which isn't a very high bar.

I’m fairly sure that in Tony and Mykelti’s case, food is a major thing. Neither have been particularly sporty or active either which (literally) adds to their weight.
Unfortunately, many overweight parents  tend to have overweight children, simply because they pass on the bad eating habits and do not stimulate activity enough. I’ve now reached a point where I’m not terribly shocked anymore when I spot a 1-year-old or even younger with her own bag of crisps or even their own happy meal….I’d feed mine breadsticks or fruit at that age and I don’t think they got a happy meal until they were 4. 

But..for all we know, there is an underlying medical reason for Avalons weight.From what I gathered from Mykelti’s post, she is taking it seriously and has a paediatrician to advise them. So, I won’t judge them to hard on Avalon, but Tony should definitely start taking his weight more seriously! 

[YupItsMe]

I do remember Mykelti & Tony hiking early in their relationship but haven’t paid enough attention lately to know if they still do. 

[Joan of Argh]

I think Avalon is cute as a button but I’m starting to wonder about her weight.

Mykelti posted a pic of Avalon sitting in front of a plate FULL of Christmas cookies with tons of icing and it looked like she was eating as many as she wanted!

Glad to hear they are working with their paediatrician.

 

[Cetacean]

Wow, that picture is very disturbing.  She's very cute but there is a serious issue developiing with her weight.  I highly doubt that they are working with a pediatrician (or listening to advice) if she is being fed what we are seeing in the pictures.  At first she looked like a roly poly baby but now it's shocking.

I wonder if she is getting comments from her IG followers.

I'm just amazed that people on Reddit aren't even mentioning it. They call her a "cute chunky baby". She IS cute, but to me she's obese at not even a year old. I too find it disturbing.

Which one of you put that banana in the picture as on homage to Meri? 🤣😆🤣

[LilyD]

I don’t know if she is still working with a paediatrician but she definitely mentioned it in earlier posts. So, I’m sure she is aware.

While it definitely may be due to the food (based on pictures some of us mentioned and Mykelti and Tony’s eating habits) I still believe it could be something else too. I have a cousin who looked like Avalon as a baby and kept struggling to her weight. I don’t know the details other than “a major hormonal dysbalance” she had since birth…

[deirdra]

It probably began pre-birth; mothers who eat excess sugar and crap can predispose their babies to becoming fat and diabetic.  Mykelti celebrated after one prenatal appointment with a dozen donuts.

[NoWhammies]

Sometimes babies are chunky. I had hyperemesis gravidarum when I was pregnant with my son for 9 months, so he wasn't an overfed prenatal baby. He was exclusively breastfed until six months and then carefully started on homemade nutritious solids. I was that mom. Let me tell you - that kid was a chunk when he was a baby. Blew out the weight curve over and over again until he was about a year old. Suddenly he grew and got lanky. He has remained lanky into his adulthood.

So, sometimes babies are just chunky. I find Avalon adorable, and it's not her weight that made me feel concerned. It's the fact she--a 7-month-old--was eating a plate of iced sugar cookies. I'm pretty sure that whether she's being monitored by a pediatrician or not. that's not something he's telling them to do for her good health.

[Absolom]

For me it's she is pretty far above the top line on the chart AND she's apparently getting all the desserts and junk food that she wants.  Of course, Oma is the one letting her own daughter have two desserts for no good reason so I don't think she's ever taught Mykelti much about healthy eating.

Ten bucks says that means Janelle and Janelle's kids, mostly. 

Christine's kids seem to have a good relationship with Janelle and her kids. Good for them, because that shows some appreciation for the Bonus Mom who worked to pay the bills, and the siblings that spent a lot of time with them.

But Meri, Kody, Robyn...I don't think the closeness is there. They know who worked with their mom, and who made her life miserable. They probably tolerate visits with them, but it's not with the same excitement as seeing some of the others.

I bet everything seems way more simple and peaceful to Mykelti when she goes to visit Tony's side of the family.

[LilyD]

Well… it has to be Janelle and her half-siblings since Christine no longer lives there and they’re obviously not welcome in Robyn’s mansion.

And iirc Mykelti never clicked with Meri. There were quite a few scenes where Meri criticized Mykelti for her thoughts, her take on religion (when she refused to attend a family ‘religious’ ceremony) and Mykelti’s non-modest/nom-conservative clothes. They may get along better now, but I doubt she’d undertake this journey now just to see Meri, Robyn and daddy-dear. 

[ginger90]

Robyn’s house??

[LilyD]

Are those pictures taken at Robyn and Kody’s house?? It must be, considering the big deck with panoramic view. I can barely believe my eyes here, so am going to assume I’m wrong and blame it on the godawful hour that I’m wide awake and lurking at this forum (it’s 4.33am out here)

[laurakaye]

Does Meri have a deck?  That cannot be Robyn's house - I can't see Robyn welcoming anyone not in her direct bubble, plus I can't imagine Mykelti would feel comfortable there...unless they just stopped by to introduce Avalon to Kody for the first time. 

[ginger90]

Based on the type of railing, it looks like Robyn’s.

From the listing, Robyn’s:

 

Meri’s, if I have the correct address, she’s moved so many times:

Yeah it's definitely Robyn. Same furniture too.

 

[deirdra]

Perhaps Robyn is visiting her relatives in Utah this year and Kootie allowed his other families in the house without her permission. Or Kootie, Robyn and the kids are away and the others broke in.

Pumpkins rotting on the balcony? Ick!

I don't think these people hate each other anywhere near as much as TLC wants you to believe. The split between Kody and Christine may actually be relatively amiable. Unless they were still quarantining, I see no reason why Mykelti wouldn't be welcome at Robyn's house. And Kody and Robyn were recently unmasked at a mall, so I'm thinking their quarantine is over.

And as much as I prefer Christine over Kody/Robyn, Christine is no angel either. No matter how flat you make a pancake, it has two sides. Mykelti knows better about what's been going on than we ever will.

Well it makes sense Mykelti is at Robyn’s mansion, otherwise how would Avalon finally get to meet her grandfather.

[Sasha888]

I'm not terribly surprised Mykelti visited the manse. She made a statement to People magazine at the time of Avalon's birth about Robyn being present for the birth via Zoom, or something similar to that. I don't think she's on the outs with Robyn.

Mykelti lives in another state and has her own adult married life, she doesn't have to put up with Robyn that often. She may have had to jump through a few hoops to make the visit, but she knew she wasn't going to get to see her dad at all, otherwise. It was worth it to her.

Putting up with some crap from a relative once or twice a year, in order to see the rest of your relatives, is something a lot of people have to do. 

From Robyn's standpoint, she can spin this into a win for herself. She could, for instance, say "Oh yes Kody, I would love to have them visit! Just tell them they have to follow x, y, and z rules for 2 weeks beforehand." She can flex her muscles a little bit, but still come out looking like "see how nice I am, I want us to all be a family...it's only Janelle and Christine who can't follow the rules..."

She knows if she flat out says no, no visit from M & T and the grandbaby, she will look bad...with just a little finagling, she can make J & C look bad instead.

[sheshark]

Lazy Robyn (and Nanny) letting the pumpkins rot.  They should have brought them out to the woods or Plague Pass, the wildlife love pumpkins and seeds.

[Shelbie]

Lazy Kody too. He lives there as well.

She's a cutie, like her cousin Evie.  They've both seemed like such happy little girls.

Happy to hear she's feeling better.

Apparently Mykelti and family had Covid, including Avalon.  As did Christine and kids.

[sheshark]

Mykelti is not vaccinated due to personal freedoms.

She put it on her Facebook.  Tony brought it home from Vegas (chess tournament) and it went through immediate family and then on to Christine and kids.  Mild symptoms.  She said only Aspyn is vaccinated and had it the easiest.  Testing line was 2 hours long for Mykelti and Tony in Lehi.  They did not tell Koootie until they were on the mend.  Just hope Truely is well recovered, but as one of our medical persons here said her acute kidney illness was not a problem, unlike chronic kidney illness.  So most likely Sobyn's pneumonia and Sol's respiratory illness are not factors.

Pretty sure Christine and Gwen both posted on Instagram that they were vaccinated?

Christine did last year in May. No clue if she followed up with second dose, or a booster. No clue about Gwen.

Mykelti may have gotten vax status wrong but Christine definitely had Covid.  Only Tony was fairly sick, the rest fairly mild and Aspyn the least.  It is a long "live" from yesterday, on the Mykelti's Whimsical Facebook page.

I started watching it yesterday. I had to give up because of the way she was moving Avalon’s arms around. What the heck?!

That's a whopper of a breakfast and the arrangement of fruit and whipped cream on the oblong dish is very upscale bistro.  Sisterly memories are made of this and I hope for Truely it erases some of the hurt inflicted by her father.

Aaaaand another one to join the plexus-mlm-train. And Mykelti said Avalon has done amazing with digesting her milk too. She really feeds her child that stuff? WTF?
