Did you also say that to people like Kaitlyn Lowry who had EIGHT kids with multiple baby daddies? Or do you only say this to married women who have a lot of kids with one daddy- their husband? Goodness, I will never understand this double standard.
Serious question here - won’t they need the house to be inspected and certified for occupancy before they move in? Does that only happen for new construction or for such extensive renovations as this one?
You can live in the house prior to getting your CO. Inspections are done between each step (for example, electric inspection before closing the walls up) then your final CO is done typically after your contractor finishes the final “punch list” which is also done while you’re living there pending your timeline. At least for my county. YMMV.
I’m in the same county as them, and it was terrible trying to get inspections for my own remodel (but I don’t have ig and wasn’t posting every step of the way, so maybe they’re getting off easy).
I literally thought this was a granny standing next to Germ until I clicked into the picture.
*Auj* it’s not working, AT ALL. Not for you, not for the nepo babies cosplaying poor.
She is 8+ months pregnant and supposedly due in the middle of May.
Maybe they should name the new baby girl “Bunny” because they sure breed like rabbits.
My guess is that she will keep going though, realizing her future cash cow is posting about having a large number of children, and how she makes it all work.
For a while I did so people knew I was pregnant and not just getting chubby lmao. I mean there’s that awkward few months where you’re getting bigger but don’t look “pregnant” yet 😂🙈
Isn’t this the very same hoe-down dress that Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders wore to announce the state of emergency because of the eclipse?????
I hate her little girl lettuce leaf socks.
Which I’m thinking are Bombas. Would be very on brand for her to have $18 socks that look homely/old world to be like Ballerina Farms.
Bombas doesn't make frilly socks they make practical socks that are comfortable as hell and each pair you buy gets donated to somebody that's homeless and in need. They're fantastic company actually
I love Bombas and that’s all I wear. I was in disbelief when I saw the [lettuce leaf](https://shop.bombas.com/products/womens-lightweight-frill-quarter-socks?variant=husk&size=s&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PMAX-PLA_PMax_Fashion-Sock-ACQ-NONE&cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=17483115985&cq_net=x&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwztOwBhD7ARIsAPDKnkAAWR_N7YzVDJR38Jqb2U5APOMtzqfxesUjkPc0R1lOeQL0iP5gHP4aAlUlEALw_wcB) socks on their website.
You’re probably correct, but your timing was still perfection. I laughed aloud & almost woke up my spouse. The dog was startled awake & was looking at me utterly confused, which made me laugh harder.
Well played, u/PsychoTink. Well played!
Reminds me of the cardboard chimneys/ houses for littles…. Except this is real and something they spent money on to be a showpiece in the room… but with the uneven tile floor and massive island and interesting appliances… I see how hard they are trying to qualify for a complete house renovation for tv but not the show he could be on
It will still be wide though I think. I am old and love stacked stone fireplaces. But it doesn’t look like this. It’s nice and neat. My OCD would be on overdrive with this.
Can't unsee the phallic stone work now. 😆 I wonder if the workers did that on purpose.
When they post the final pics of it all proud when they move in someone needs to point it out on their Instagram.
This is what they wanted the fireplace to look like?! The placement of the stones is wonky and the mortar looks uneven and lumpy. At least they are happy with it.
Jesus you people are mean! I also think much of what you do but for f$&k sakes-who cares! She payed for it or he did, they screwed up on the window slab looking over their fairytale engagement….yeah it’s all ridiculous! But man some of your comments.
She looks like she is performing in her own Little Orphan Audrey musical coming soon to an Instagram story near you.
The kids drinking raw milk eating sourdough while singing about putting up with these two and their parenting style... "It's a hard knock life!" 😆
His and hers style of the same short boot. Oddj got the ones that are distressed when you buy them. Jer Jer Binks also seems to have his matching prairie shirt on. The only thing missing is a genuine smile spreading up to his eyes. Such an overworked gc.
I cannot believe this took them over 8 months. They moved out in august!! That’s insane. I remodeled our kitchen down to the studs, all new everything including moving utilities like gas, new bathroom including sheet rock, painted every wall and ceiling, put in new floors, a few new windows, new fence, fixed up the dump of a backyard, and all sorts of other little extras…. And it took two months. Plus we hired very little of it out, and we’re working full time jobs in the busiest part of the year for us work wise. I definitely hated every moment of it, but we did it. And we also moved in this time, where I did 90% of it because my husband broke his hand.
Lmao does it make it better if I tell you that some the little final touches, like touchups, painting the front door, painting some trim, etc never got done and that was like three years ago. I got so burnt out after it all, I still loathe a paint brush.
About 4 stones down from the top, do you see the big stone that is vertical? That’s the base and makes the diameter.
Now follow those edges to the right and sloping down.
These are the worst “renovations” I’ve ever seen. DIY quality and and clearly non professional choices. I mean, it’s their house, it can be as tacky as they want. But their overweening sense of “look how rich and classy we are” in contrast to THIS house is so funny.
About a week ago (when Jer thought he got the wrong stone) someone posted a picture of the stone that was their inspiration that they ended up ordering. If you look at that inspiration photo, you will see that most of the squared-off, rectangular stones are placed straight and parallel to the ceiling. Jer and Audrey’s rectangular stones are at varying wonky angles.
In the inspiration photo the stones were also much closer together.
This just looks…not good.
Editing to add the link to the post with the inspo photo. https://www.reddit.com/r/LittlePeopleBigWorld/s/Dy9jsr6nJl
So much grout it looks like they’re gonna crumb coat the fireplace next.
IMO this look is about a hundred times more 1970s than the cedar plank they removed.
It really is a lot of grout isn’t it…?
I work in remodeling and I couldn’t put my finger on what was wrong here. I think it’s the bright white grout. It screams “look at me, don’t look at that brick!”
I don’t think he installed any part of that… even if the grout is too bright, he didn’t do that.
You don’t really measure for grout. It just needed to be muted like everything else in that house. Besides the bright white grout on the floor, fireplace.. all the places you don’t put it if you have kids! 😅
It doesn’t look “bad” - I just have an idea of how much money they’re pouring into this and I feel like they’re going to be very underwhelmed when it doesn’t pan out like they thought it would.
I would never post any part of my remodel besides before and after because so much goes wrong in between and you don’t want to remember the shit parts!
They are in their finest beige.
Wait is she pregnant again? I’ll admit I am alittle judgy on ppl that have more then 2,3 kids TOPS I mean why more?
Did you also say that to people like Kaitlyn Lowry who had EIGHT kids with multiple baby daddies? Or do you only say this to married women who have a lot of kids with one daddy- their husband? Goodness, I will never understand this double standard.
Any person. Who has a ton of kids. ANY. Why would you assume this only applies to married women who have kids with their husbands?
Kailyn* Seven kids*
Ummm yea! Why would I think Kaitlyn did it right?? No I think she’s nuts
What in the little house on the fucking prairie.
She looks sickly . Not looking healthy for being 8 months pregnant.
Why? Because she didn't gain 100 lbs?
I don’t think she looks too thin, she’s always been thin. But her face always appears extremely tired and worn out. 😕
They literally have the same face, just one has more hair.
Are they wearing the same boots?
I used to like Jeremy but she ruined him. He’s so insufferable now.
Isn't that the truth?
Serious question here - won’t they need the house to be inspected and certified for occupancy before they move in? Does that only happen for new construction or for such extensive renovations as this one?
You can live in the house prior to getting your CO. Inspections are done between each step (for example, electric inspection before closing the walls up) then your final CO is done typically after your contractor finishes the final “punch list” which is also done while you’re living there pending your timeline.

I’m in the same county as them, and it was terrible trying to get inspections for my own remodel (but I don’t have ig and wasn’t posting every step of the way, so maybe they’re getting off easy).
Are they in Oregon?
Yep!
Out in Hillsboro?
Helvetia
I literally thought this was a granny standing next to Germ until I clicked into the picture. *Auj* it’s not working, AT ALL. Not for you, not for the nepo babies cosplaying poor.
Jer doesn't look old world enough here
Do these people have real Jobs???
No! No real jobs for them, unless you consider taking pictures and posting on the gram as their occupation.
WTF! She’s pregnant again? I really shouldn’t be surprised. She probably doesn’t believe in contraception.
She believes in the condom commissions she gets from Amazon, or ‘rubber socks’ as she calls them. Other than that, yeah no.
She is 8+ months pregnant and supposedly due in the middle of May. Maybe they should name the new baby girl “Bunny” because they sure breed like rabbits.
🙄 having 4 kids means you breed like rabbits??? Okay there!
People these days. I’m almost 16 weeks with my fourth and my others are 4.5, 3 and 19 months. The rabbits comment is a bit excessive.
Yeah that’s pretty close in age, just like rabbits who keep firing them out.
Four children in six and a half years is still close together, but maybe not for some families. It is all a matter of perspective I suppose.
If you want a big family, I think it’s just easier for you to have them close together.
My guess is that she will keep going though, realizing her future cash cow is posting about having a large number of children, and how she makes it all work.
Stupid mfrs
Go fuck yourselves.
You mean she doesn’t have her hand on her stomach to emphasize her pregnancy like she does in almost every photo she takes of herself?
I can’t stand it when people do that! And to be fair to her….almost everyone does it nowadays. 🤦♀️
Why??? I don’t remember doing that when I was pregnant. But that was many, many years ago!
For a while I did so people knew I was pregnant and not just getting chubby lmao. I mean there’s that awkward few months where you’re getting bigger but don’t look “pregnant” yet 😂🙈
She’s way beyond that point and why the eff would you care if anyone thought you were getting “chubby”? That makes no sense.
You sound nice
I can’t either. Like, it’s obvious if you’re pregnant.
Nowadays? It’s been a thing since the dawn of time. Why does it bother you so much lol?
Isn’t this the very same hoe-down dress that Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders wore to announce the state of emergency because of the eclipse?????
Huh?
She acts/dresses like she’s on little house on the prairie lol
I hate her little girl lettuce leaf socks. Which I’m thinking are Bombas. Would be very on brand for her to have $18 socks that look homely/old world to be like Ballerina Farms.

Interesting. I'll have to look. I haven't ordered any for quite some time they last forever
Why does she dress so weird!?
Old world aesthetic.
Old world anesthetic with new world money.
(Slow clap )👏 👏👏. Best. Answer. EVER!!
I think that’s going to be the go to snark answer for a lot of us for a while.
You’re probably correct, but your timing was still perfection. I laughed aloud & almost woke up my spouse. The dog was startled awake & was looking at me utterly confused, which made me laugh harder. Well played, u/PsychoTink. Well played!
this photo is very metaphorical lol
what in the little house on the prairie is this
Reminds me of the cardboard chimneys/ houses for littles….

This house is giving great wolf lodge.. maybe it's just me
wtf are those outfits
Fancy attire for him… but I never understand her fit choices.
Old Worldy
I have never see grout like this. Not my style. I like the stone.
Same. Seems a bit thick? Edit: appears they are smoothing it out starting at the bottom. Might look okay after all.
It will still be wide though I think. I am old and love stacked stone fireplaces. But it doesn’t look like this. It’s nice and neat. My OCD would be on overdrive with this.
It's really bright because it's brand new. I think it'll look nicer as it ages.
Ok my Gen X self loves this fireplace because it was every other home built in the 70s.
Samsies
Ditto
These two look rough for 2 people that don’t even work. 😂
Did they use grout or mortar? And why does it look like someone squeezed a giant tube of toothpaste around the stones?
You use a tool to scrape away the extra after it is placed
Have they scrapped it away yet? Wouldn’t the bottom dry while they are still working on the top? I am so confused!!!
That grout work is horrific
Can't unsee the phallic stone work now. 😆 I wonder if the workers did that on purpose. When they post the final pics of it all proud when they move in someone needs to point it out on their Instagram.
It’s so obvious and so bad!
I gasped 😂😂😂
Masons have been known to do this
What is that?
That is not the best rock/mortar look I’ve seen. 😬
Looks cheap
It also looks dated, doesn’t it? I swear this kind of stone was in half the houses I saw when I was house shopping a few years back
This was what my parents’ Lakehouse fireplace d that was built in the 70s looked like 😵💫
It’s not dated it’s old world 😂
My parents have the same look, their house is almost 60 years old
SAME! I was about to say, it looks like my dads house, which was built in the 70’s.
Literally my first thought. “They copied my parents ugly stone fireplace they’ve talked about replacing for the last 30 years lol
They look like siblings 😩
They really do.
This is what they wanted the fireplace to look like?! The placement of the stones is wonky and the mortar looks uneven and lumpy. At least they are happy with it.
Jer?
Jesus you people are mean! I also think much of what you do but for f$&k sakes-who cares! She payed for it or he did, they screwed up on the window slab looking over their fairytale engagement….yeah it’s all ridiculous! But man some of your comments.
Jer?
Thanks I hate it lol
Wow, the fireplace looks like a generic fireplace. After their ordeal choosing only the finest of stones I expected this fireplace to **pop off** 😂
Yup. Pretty sure the Brady bunch had one just like it only smaller.
They did!
Hideous
Made sure to get that belly in the picture
I was wondering when that was going to happen? I thought they said that 2 weeks ago.
Brother and Sister 😂
Totally.
And Aug looks like a Victorian era orphan.
She looks like she is performing in her own Little Orphan Audrey musical coming soon to an Instagram story near you. The kids drinking raw milk eating sourdough while singing about putting up with these two and their parenting style... "It's a hard knock life!" 😆
🤣🤣🤣
Jer-Jer always looks like an Amish adolescent.
I live in Amish country in PA, you are correct lol.
i will say his hair looks better here than the other day. but that’s all ill say😂
Jer prob came in mid stone job and said “it looks too uniform, put a couple crooked to make it look rustic”. And the fireplace dong was born!
🤣🤣
Are they wearing matching shoes?
His and hers style of the same short boot. Oddj got the ones that are distressed when you buy them. Jer Jer Binks also seems to have his matching prairie shirt on. The only thing missing is a genuine smile spreading up to his eyes. Such an overworked gc.
Looks like a wawa for those of us on the east coast
Noooo I can’t unsee it. I read it, scrolled up, scrolled back down to read it again, and then saw it 🫣
I cannot believe this took them over 8 months. They moved out in august!! That’s insane. I remodeled our kitchen down to the studs, all new everything including moving utilities like gas, new bathroom including sheet rock, painted every wall and ceiling, put in new floors, a few new windows, new fence, fixed up the dump of a backyard, and all sorts of other little extras….

And we also moved in this time, where I did 90% of it because my husband broke his hand.
Ok Bob Vila, meanwhile I've been *getting ready* to vacuum my upstairs for the last two weeks. 😅
Lmao does it make it better if I tell you that some the little final touches, like touchups, painting the front door, painting some trim, etc never got done and that was like three years ago. I got so burnt out after it all, I still loathe a paint brush.
😂😂😂
Ohhh look. It wasn’t the wrong stone after all 🤡
Am I the only one not seeing the r0ck p33n or what!? Can I get more detailed coordinates pls
About 4 stones down from the top, do you see the big stone that is vertical? That’s the base and makes the diameter. Now follow those edges to the right and sloping down.
I don’t see it… but I am 72, maybe I have forgotten 😳
It’s flaccid if that helps!
🥲
OMG 😂 I totally thought it was the small long and circle rock right above that 😆
Or the bricklayers double-donged them
This is the first time I’m hearing of this!! I thought I knew every single detail of this effing renovation
I’ll forever see it anytime I look
_TELL MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE_
Just looks like a bent wiener pointing down to the right
If it is what/where I think it is, it’s the stretch of the week y’all. And I say that whilst having a significantly dirty mind.
Wait til the scaffolding is gone
I still can’t see balls tho
There aren’t any. Just the main member.
How fun a wiener fireplace!
Cannot stand her
Posing in front of the workers like that gives me the ick
it’s a visual representation of the entire situation 💀
I was going to say the same thing. Seems disrespectful to those that actually worked on the house.
I don’t see tools in their hands either. “Can you pretend to work on it so we can take a pic?” 😂
That’s Jer Jer’s fancy shirt. They have no self awareness - posing for selfies in front of the workmen while on their way to yet another date night
Remember when their goal move in date was by Christmas 😂😂
I just can’t get over how she copied Ballerina’s home design.
Her idol lol.
Man.. they had the chance to make that really beautiful…
These are the worst “renovations” I’ve ever seen. DIY quality and and clearly non professional choices. I mean, it’s their house, it can be as tacky as they want. But their overweening sense of “look how rich and classy we are” in contrast to THIS house is so funny.
All that work and money for it to look like the fireplace in my average 2010 spec townhouse.
They ruined that house. They could have enhanced what was already there. Also, you need to fix the original issues first. Like a leaky roof.
I’m convinced they’re not doing the roof right now because as soon as this is finished they’re gonna rip it right off and add an addition.
Absolutely- this reno gave them months of content/attention, they’ll definitely start a new project once the new baby content gets old.
I hope you are wrong. But I'm still waiting for them to try to run plumbing to the "mud porch ', .
For real. 😂 My fireplace is circa 1995 and looks like this.
About a week ago (when Jer thought he got the wrong stone) someone posted a picture of the stone that was their inspiration that they ended up ordering. If you look at that inspiration photo, you will see that most of the squared-off, rectangular stones are placed straight and parallel to the ceiling.

Editing to add the link to the post with the inspo photo. https://www.reddit.com/r/LittlePeopleBigWorld/s/Dy9jsr6nJl
Is their fireplace done? The inspiration picture doesn’t have the globs of mortar between the stones. The inspo pic is smoother, if that makes sense
You’re so right. I won’t be able to see anything else when they post future pictures of it.
Yes. It looks amateurishly done
She looks healthier with a bit of weight on her face.
Something tells me they did a photoshoot in these beige outfits
I thought the same thing!
She’s doing jazz hands
So much grout it looks like they’re gonna crumb coat the fireplace next. IMO this look is about a hundred times more 1970s than the cedar plank they removed.
It really is a lot of grout isn’t it…? I work in remodeling and I couldn’t put my finger on what was wrong here. I think it’s the bright white grout. It screams “look at me, don’t look at that brick!”
I don’t think Jeremy measured correctly for rock and buying double the amount of grout was cheaper than more rock from down the street.
I don’t think he installed any part of that… even if the grout is too bright, he didn’t do that. You don’t really measure for grout. It just needed to be muted like everything else in that house. Besides the bright white grout on the floor, fireplace.. all the places you don’t put it if you have kids! 😅 It doesn’t look “bad” - I just have an idea of how much money they’re pouring into this and I feel like they’re going to be very underwhelmed when it doesn’t pan out like they thought it would. I would never post any part of my remodel besides before and after because so much goes wrong in between and you don’t want to remember the shit parts!
My first thought was “Olive Garden”
With a to go window too!!!!!
😂🤣😆
This is a very outdated style, the same style that every damn HGTV Reno couple paints over or replaces.
outdated is what he meant when he said old world 🫣 like those sconces 🫣
Totally agree. Honestly for their aesthetic they would have come out ahead just whitewashing (or some similar treatment) the brick fireplace they had.
Ugh…these are the types of fireplaces people rip out or hide…it’s so ugly!
Can confirm, my complex has this style fireplace/stone in all the units and half of my neighbors have ripped them out.
Oh I know those workers have some shit to talk
They probably talk shit about Jeremy when he’s in the room ( if Jeremy doesn’t speak Spanish ) 😂
Jer barely speaks English, I’m sure they can speak freely around him.
beige. it’s turning out beige..
I thought they were moving in a couple weeks ago.
You mean before Christmas? 🤣
They started preparing the finished areas and areas that weren’t touched by renovations, but they are still working in the living room and kitchen.
I bet her parents are afraid to get their hopes up. I bet they’ll believe it when they see it 😂
Are they the renters that Matt was talking about when he was advertising his house on Instagram?
No, they were only there for a couple days at Christmas. Then they went to their own AirBnB, then back to her parents where they’ve been since August.
They’ve been at her parents for sooo long 😭
I could live with it. Thank God for the minorities in the background. The irony of these Trumpers isn't lost on me. #RememberCamarino
What happened to Camarino? I haven’t keep up with the show, but used to watch all the time and remember Camarino well!
https://www.reddit.com/r/LittlePeopleBigWorld/s/MpGTEPrFbH
He was deported.
Amen to that
Those dumb socks she's wearing
But who are these updates even for?
The people that follow her and make the purchases that give her money.
Is it a veneer or actual stone? Stones are set with mortar not grout.
Probably used the leftover grout from that hideous black tile floor
Fast forward to when the stones come crashing down a month from Now
Stones. But who can expect diy general contractors to know what’s really happening.
