Bumsalongtheway Part 11

I find it hilarious that they were promoting a cooking channel in today's vlog, I mean 70% of the time they eat out and the other 30% of the time they are heating up food (that's hardly cooking!)

Or they are making things that sound like cheesy chicken w/ mashed potatoes covered w/ cheese. Sounds like healthy natural cooking to me... said no one ever.

[springsahm]

Yeah they are pretty deluded about what homemade means. Yesterday I made pasta with mixed veggies and pesto sauce from scratch with basil I grew in my garden. In the same situation they probably would have just used store-bought pesto. Remember when she made a box cake (or was it brownies?) and kept saying it was "from scratch"? They don't understand what home-cooked means or what healthy means. I feel bad for anyone that would take cooking advice from them. I hate to respond with blanket criticism when people cut corners because Lord knows I've cut a few corners in my day because I worked all day and was too lazy to do something or whatever. But don't call yourself a green and "natural" living advocate if you don't actually cultivate green living habits! Such behavior as making a big stink about hating disposable diapers (remember when she said how she couldn't even stand the smell of them?) and then switching back to them when things got too hard or blathering on about natural products and then stuffing herself with chemical and preservative-full convenience foods is just clear-cut hypocrisy! It's like I don't care if you use disposable diapers or eat junk, but just call it like it is and stop trying to call yourself a green living advocate just because it's trendy when you're clearly not. My husband's cousin is all about Betty Crocker cooking, disposable diapering, and modern convenience living and she makes absolutely no apologies like it and I applaud her because she is who she is and is up-front about it.

I doubt she's pregnant, unless it was an accident. She seems dead set on waiting until she is able to get that surgery done. I think she'd actually be upset if she were pregnant.

I was kind of worried about this myself while watching the "birthday special." When Missy is with Ollie doing the whole candle thing she looked like she was holding her stomach. I was thinking either cramping, pregnant, or ...miscarrying. =[ I know that's how I held my stomach when I was miscarrying.. =/

I haven't gone back and watched this...but I have a theory.


My theory? She already had the surgery and didn't tell bumpers. Usually the procedure is an outpatient procedure and wasn't Missy feeling sick a few weeks ago? Maybe she was/is recovering...that could also account for the cramps she could have been having at the party. As for the breast milk, she could have been pumping if she wants to keep Ollie on breast milk...but I haven't seen them breast feed in forever, either. I'm guessing that she'll get pregnant and then they'll surprise everyone. Bryan will probably tell us that he tricked us.

I highly doubt it. Missy would not pump. She already have up on that. I'm pretty sure she was breastfeeding in a recent vlog. Plus I'm sure that journey with the procedure and recovery is something she would want to document and discuss. Also all of her bumpers know she needs and wants that surgery, and when she ends up pregnant they will be asking her about it and she would have to fess up so that doesn't make sense

[danizaurr]

I was hoping her Wednesday video would be an update about her plans for surgery, weaning, and pregnancy since Bryan was boasting about how they had some good news lately. Or an All About Ollie 1 Year. Even a cheesy overview of his birthday party with Bryan's good editing skills would have been nice. But we got a video of her playing with baby toys. I know she has very little quality content on her channel, but it annoyed me she had some good topics for videos and did a baby toy haul explaining how each toy works in depth.

Just like they fessed up about the ranch donation, right

I'm sticking with my original theory that she isn't pregnant because view-hungry Bryan would be milking it for whatever its worth. I do like hearing everyone elses, though! Something to talk about instead of that stupid bow.

[SaraB1105]

How incredibly tacky to make a video about what your kid got for his birthday. I didn't even watch the video but I'm sorry, that is tacky. I was just happy that all the people important in my daughter's life were with us to eat and have a good time, I couldn't care less if they brought gifts. Just shows how materialistic these people are.

I am new to them, what is the ranch donation thing all about?

They collected donations to go to a horse ranch, mention donating but when anyone asked about it their comments either were ignored or deleted. Someone here actually called the ranch to ask about the donation only to find out there never was one made and called out B&M. Cue Bryan saying that is was a paypal error and they never knew the funds didn't get donated and suddenly donated everything. There was a lot of speculation that Bryan knew the funds didn't go through, didn't care and decided to keep the money until they got called out.

Ha!! I agree. I think it's a little different. It's easy to tell them you donated money when you didn't, versus saying "Oh I'm pregnant!" And when people ask about the surgery she can't just say "Oh I decided not to get it" after so many videos saying she wanted it so bad. And yes, Bryan would absolutely be milking it for all it's worth if she was. He's been milking it with all those misleading vlog titles for a year. Haha!

What ever happened with the person who brought up the horse donations? They made a big deal and just vanished

I don't know. Wasn't it Yonkers? Whoever it was hasn't been on since all that went down. They also made their account a week or so before posting about it, which always made me a little suspicious.

Which video did they film on the ranch? How did a donation for that particular ranch even get brought up? Just curious

[blackbetty]

I don't think they'd do the surgery secretly. They would milk it.

Honestly I don't remember, this was a few months ago. You can find the horse ranch videos on their YouTube - the title has something to do with horses. It wasn't too long after Ollie was born. I wasn't actually watching them at that time so I can't help with more.
I remember some people were wondering about the donation here and a few viewers would ask questions on their videos only to get snotty replies or to have them deleted. The donation controversy was back in May I think so you should be able to find the posts if you care to dig.

I'm pretty sure all of the horse vlogs were in November. I think.

[FakingIt_MakingIt]

They exploit anything and everything for a dollar (funeral) so I doubt anything note worthy is going on with them

Oh, I was thinking it may have been just one higher quality video. Thanks!

The ranch had no idea that Bryan and Missy were selling karma cases on behalf of the ranch, let alone knew that they were filming in the ranch.
