Nitpicking but Her "best friends" go on vacations without their kid all the time (Bryan and Missy). If I was Ellie and I knew my best friends left their kid a lot for vacation, I wouldn't post that tweet for fear of seeming judgemental towards my best friend.

Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
There are mini vans that are able to tow a trailer for Jared to have his four wheeler on.staceybrax wrote:This might be really petty but whatever. Does anyone else find it really strange they're looking at buying a minivan and testing all of these minivans out when they just bought a 4 wheeler that they'll need to tow around? I would think they'd be looking at a car more like what bonnie and Joel have, a 7 seat suburban, that could tow the 4 wheeler. You can't rely on other people to pick your bike up and drop it off every time you want to go ride it.
Edit: is the conversation getting borderline diagnosing? I don't want anyone to get in trouble D:

I'm actually concerned that she IS likely still breastfeeding which means her body is being stripped of vital minerals and nutrients. Ellie's now at a much higher risk of osteoporosis later in life..

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
And I hate to say it, but it seems to me that a lot of her life is like a vacation. I know she has housework, and meal prep, she has Jared home pretty much 24/7, and any time he goes away, she stays with family and gets presents from Jared.gymchick43 wrote:[img]//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016012 ... 1f9ec1.jpg[/img]

And date nights (leaving the baby AT HOME) and vacations away from the kids are important too. Keeping your relationship as a couple is important because the kids (normally--Missy notwithstanding) grow up and move out. And if you don't have a good relationship with your spouse then, it's going to be a real drag.

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
I'm assuming they share more with the other couples on the trip than they do with their viewers, otherwise they're going to be sneaking around with the formula and pretending to breastfeed the entire time. I just see these vlogging trips as super awkward. Everything they're used to editing out of the vlogs and keeping off the internet is now fair game because there's probably a camera out at all times. Everyone needs to be "on" the entire time. As it is, I'm sure the other couples are side-eyeing every time Ellie picks over Jared's leftover scraps as her "meal." I don't mean to diagnose anyone, I'm not a doctor nor an expert. But her appearance has become quite dramatic and it's impossible not to comment on it. This is just my opinion as a layperson, based on the information they have put out there.
Re: Her comment about vacationing with kids- she's just so sanctimonious, she thinks the way her family did things is the only way to do things.

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
You guess realize you can breastfeed and formula feed at the same time right? I doubt Calvin just stopped nursing. It doesn't work like that.

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
Agreed... We could already see the effects of this on her teeth when she had to have like 11 cavities filled!! That was insane and totally not normal! Not diagnosing at all but just pointing out some probably well known facts...really really poor diets and eating disorders are associated with dental issues.westwuff wrote:I'm actually concerned that she IS likely still breastfeeding which means her body is being stripped of vital minerals and nutrients.

I think until Ellie says she has an eating disorder everyone should stop saying she does. It's borderline diagnosing. Come on.

Yes. I think most people realize that. BFing or not BFing isn't the issue. The sanctimony and misleading behaviour is.Fallonlynn10 wrote:You guess realize you can breastfeed and formula feed at the same time right? I doubt Calvin just stopped nursing. It doesn't work like that.

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
Ok Ellie...you've made it very clear that you still breastfeed...lol!!! She had to bring it up every chance she got ...how is it possible that I'm finding her to be even more annoying than Missy?!?! She is so loud and obnoxious! When she's around everybody she just tries too hard. She must have some major insecurities.

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
My apologies, I meant to say she's pretending that she is *exclusively breastfeeding. I have no way of knowing what her ratio of formula to milk is. I would be very surprised if she's producing enough to exclusively breastfeed. And they've never official brought up formula, right? I got the impression the only reason viewers are aware is because someone spotted the formula in the background. I'm assuming her friends know she feeds her son formula, because that would be awfully hard to hide if you're spending a week together. My point was there are things they purposely obscure for the vlogs for whatever reason, and that will be more difficult when they're all together.
Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
If her supply was good then she would be pumping breastmilk. But the fact that we've seen formula must mean she makes barely any milk. And if things were going perfectly well, then I don't think she would be constantly trying to shove it down people's throats that she is nursing. It's like she has to convince HERSELF that breastfeeding is going well.

Anyone else small enough to slide out of their seatbelt when they fall asleep?
Jared is clearly clueless as to how unsafe this could be if he's IGing a pic of it. [img]//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016012 ... 105e0a.jpg[/img]

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
Not true. Some woman don't respond to a pump. I never did and my supply was great. I had to use formula for when I was away from my baby (which wasn't often) because I just never responded to a pump. My son is now 2 and still breastfeeding.az2639 wrote:If her supply was good then she would be pumping breastmilk. But the fact that we've seen formula must mean she makes barely any milk.

Pumping worked at one point because she had tons of milk stored in the freezer.Fallonlynn10 wrote:Not true. Some woman don't respond to a pump. I never did and my supply was great.

Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
I recently unsubscribed because I found myself either not clicking on their vids or, when I did watch, getting annoyed or bored halfway through and zoning out. But decided to come in here to see if anything interesting had happened (not really, huh? Lol).
Anyway, the text picture about sharing meals reminded me of this photo Bonnie posted. Bonnie and Joel's plates are pretty empty plus the caption mentions that they just finished dinner so I'm assuming this at the end of the dinner. Look at the plate in front of Ellie! It barely looks touched!

I'm 250lbs and can't eat a full meal at a restaurant. If they allow it, I get a kids meal or just a side. If not I split a full meal with my 3 year old.
She should definitely eat better (as in healthier, not necessarily more) to gain weight, but if she and Jared are happy sharing a meal that's great. No need to waste a bunch of food. If he wants his own meal, he can grow a pair and tell her so.

Re: Ellie + Jared: The 'Kay Diaries (pt. 8)
And she got the _lobster_.! It's hard to tell--is it eaten? I agree that restaurant portions are outrageously huge. But that's why there are takeout containers.formerctfxcer wrote:I recently unsubscribed because I found myself either not clicking on their vids or, when I did watch, getting annoyed or bored halfway through and zoning out.

If they want to share, no big deal. But the idea that Jared felt the need to ask permission ahead of time to have his own meal, and that when he did she said no-- that's a bit nuts. He did grow a little bit of a pair-- but he asked instead of just saying so...
