Everyone on the board thinks Ollie is mean and doesn’t get along with Finn, I think they have a pretty good sibling bond. Lately they seem to play together very well. On the other hand Gaines seems to hate brooks most of the time and is extremely jealous and hates sharing with him. I see cuts all the time when brooks goes to grab her toy.
This behavior is pretty normal and relatable for me. My kids didn’t get along at all and have the same age gap as Brooks and Gaines. As soon as my youngest started walking the oldest absolutely hated everything about him, he was extremely jealous, didn’t want to share, he would even hit him. This didn’t end until my youngest was nearly 2, they started playing together very well at that point and they do still fight daily but work through it easily and go back to being best friends. Katie and Cullen need to nip Gaines bratty behavior in the bud and stop allowing her to get away with all the stuff she does. The entire household is ran by that little diva.

Ollie has only played with Finn in the last few months. There were lots of times when Ollie ignored him or acted like he wanted to hurt Finn.
Did you see the instastories where Cullen and Katie were "playing" with Gaines and Gaines was being the grown-up? Katie was acting like Brooks was irritating her and Gaines was yelling at Brooks telling him she was going to put him in time out and that he only had "3 chances". So we know what she's hearing. And Katie shouldn't have been instigating-- even if she was "playing" she was setting Brooks up as the "bad kid". And that's not the way to nip sibling rivalry in the bud. My kids fought, but they presented a united front to the world.

Yep my kids didn’t like each other until right around the time Ollie and Finn started playing so I am passing no judgement about that. Their parenting skills are pretty bad but I think Bryan does try, missy is pretty damn lazy and let’s the tv raise the boys.
I missed the instastories because I don’t have Instagram but that sounds unacceptable and very worrying. Poor brooks.
What an anticlimactic vlog. If you pay any attention to their other social media accounts, you already knew that Allie came home at the end of the day.
Katie once again, for the thousandth time, is complaining about Brooks on the vlog in front of him. He’s going to start picking up on his mom’s annoyance. Great way to build your son’s self esteem.
And I’ll die happy if I never need to hear Cullen’s high-pitched voice calling the cat again.

The delay on their vlogs is causing them to lose viewers because we knew Allie Cat was fine.
I don’t get why Katie is so negative towards Brooks. I wonder instead of seeing Cullen’s qualities in him she’s sees her own and she does not like the reflection of that mirror.
I use a high pitch baby voice to get my dog in sometimes. It’s the only sound to penetrate when he is zoned in a critter. But if I say you want a cookie that breaks it as well just have to make sure I have a cookie for him.

Lol I talk to my dog in a voice that is probably obnoxious, but I don’t put it in a vlog for people to have to endure.

Oh, you could be onto something there. I just got an image of Katie being exactly like Brooks off camera with Cullen. All that demanding and whining he does (Katie's words) she does to Cullen (coz she thinks she's such an entitled country club princess), only she has words to express herself and I get the feeling she uses some pretty choice (read: hurtful) ones. Oh, that can't be where Gaines get's it from? Surely not

I haven't watched today, but per twitter and the vlog from yesterday it seems like they are back on the regular "day after" delay again. The tweets about Allie were the night before the vlog came out, so the delay is normal now. Unless they revert back today, like i said i haven't even opened youtube today so idk if a vlog is even up yet lol.
Oh and cheese is the key word to getting my dog to come the hell home. lol but like you said, you better have her some cheese.
Unbelievable. Ada (the black dog?) Was on the table licking the plates, and Cullen spends time recording it and laughing before making her get down.
Even the dogs are getting mixed signals.
Gaines behavior at the restaurant and in the car are our of control. They just let her climb around nearby booths. Then she runs over to brooks and he pulls her hair and she looks at him with the most conniving face and tries to steal his iPad right before there is a cut. Booths are not playgrounds even if there is nobody sitting there.

Then in the golf cart when they closed the vlog she screams and screams until she gets her way, brooks isn’t allowed to talk or attempt to close the vlog because that’s her job. “I wanted to say it!” They just laugh and smile and don’t attempt to correct her behavior.
Katie: Complains about how if she doesn't get at least 9 hours of sleep, she becomes irritable.
Also Katie: Puts her 1 year old to bed after 10pm on a regular basis, and complains that he's irritable.

Exactly! Someone previously said that brooks is a lot like Katie and she doesn’t like seeing her less then favourable traits, and I definitely agree!
And why is Katie unable to make this connection?
Was Cullen acting out of it in the golf cart or was it just me that thought so?
and yeah, I agree what I am reading about Gaines, she is getting some sass and neither one of them are doing anything to help the situation.
I always thought Gaines was a super smart baby and toddler, and was impressed by her. She's averaged out now, and is really learning to have sort of an entitled attitude.

She really was, and I think if her parents paid the same type of attention to her she could be leaps and bounds ahead of where she is now. But Katie and Cullen are such different parents then they were when she was a baby. And I don’t even mean that they’ve got a second kid now, I know things change when there’s another baby added to the mix but they’ve changed drastically. They dont seem to care how bratty she acts and she’s definitely smart enough to know what behaviour gets immediate attention and they allow it.
Gaines is acting really bratty, and they aren’t teaching her anything different.

Yeah I thought he was acting weird in the golf cart he looked like he couldn’t keep his eyes open! He’s acting strange again especially with the accomplishing goals thing ok u told the kids u would ride the golf cart after the walk but u went to dinner instead and it was clearly late and the kids should be in bed! It’s like they are teenagers raising kids not two adults who need to put the kids to bed at a decent hour!

People don’t “get better” as suddenly as Cullen seem to, and neither to marriage problems. They are falling back into old habits and it’s triggering the same issues Cullen had before and the same coping mechanisms.
As I’ve always said, the next blow up is going to be a BIG ONE.

Honestly, I think Gaines hanging out with her older cousins daily isn't helping. Emily is VERY sassy and Madelyn is a cranky teenager now. They are sweet kids most of the time, but they definitely have attitudes (most of which I think they leave off the vlogs). Gaines is just following their lead.
