An overview of all the things that happend in the lives of the fundie family's I follow in july 2025

Arnie Joel was born to Ryan&Ruth Bourlier (Wissmann)

Timothy Charles was born to Timothy&Heidi Rodrigues (Coverett)

Ryan Bourlier celebrates his 41st birthday today.

A overview of what happend and didn't happen (but I did predict would happen) in the last month of 2022.

Ruth Bourlier (Wissmann) gave birth to Chloe Ann on december 12th

Jed&Katey Duggar announced that they are expecting a second child in may 2023. Later they revealed it's a girl, Nora Kate

Kaylee&Jonathan Hill announced they are expecting their first child in august 2023

We found out from the Duggar christmas video that baby Duggar-Swanson #2 is probably a girl named Daisy

Ruth&Ryan Bourlier (Wissmann) had their 5th child, Chloe, on december 12th. Finaly a girl after four boys. Since I don't think they were only trying for a girl, let's start predicting when they will announce #6.

When we look at the data she will have #6 spring 2024 and announcing about a year from now. But there are a few things to consider. First her age, Ruth is now 39 years old. Her mother had her last child at 48 but those last few children came with pretty big spacings. While she had her first children only a bit slower then Ruth had hers. So it could very well be that Ruth might not be as fast with the next one. Next to consider is that her spacings are indeed somewhat slower. So I think it's safe to assume we have to add something to the data. And at last, she announced her latest pregnancy pretty late. She announced in october, only two months away from her due date.

I predicted that Ruth would deliver her 5th baby, a boy, named Marcus, on december 26th. Well she didn't. She gave birth to a girl, named Chloe Ann, on december 12th. So I was totally wrong.

I will later write a new prediction for Ruth&Ryan, first let's look at the lists.

Ruth

Before Chloe was born Ruth stood on place #9, 4 places behind for her age. Because none of the people with 4 children and expecting a 5th had their 5th before Ruth, nothing changes. She is still in 9th place, still 4 places behind for her age.

Ryan

Before Chloe was born Ryan stood also on place #9, 3 places behind for his age. Because of the same reason with Ruth, nothing changes for Ryan either. So he is also still in 9th place, still 3 places behind for his age.

My thoughts

Ruth&Ryan are in a place in the list that not really changes much. There aren't so many people with 4 children and expecting. (Only Alyssa Webster at the moment) And they are now one of the only 3 couple's who have 5 children, Bethany&Dan Beasley (Wissmann) and Chad&Erin Paine (Bates).
