Gil and the Boys Build a Seesaw


"At first, they're all gung-ho...but their attention spans are not that long."
-Gil Bates

On tomorrow's episode, Gil recruits Judson and Jeb to help him build a seesaw. The boys are thrilled to begin the project, but they are a little less excited to carry it to completion (see video below).

  2. Don’t the Bates have a bad habit of starting projects and never finishing?

    1. They finish things, it sometimes just takes a long time. The seesaw was finished on the show.

  5. I have a feeling that if it wasn't being filmed there'd be no safety glasses. From what I've seen in previous episodes(litttle ones riding horses with Ho helmets, etc.), they aren't very safety conscious. JMO

    1. Maybe so, maybe not. Impossible to tell unless we're there.

    2. They aren’t even wearing actual safety goggles, they’re wearing sunglasses...

  8. Why are these shows listed as an hour but are only 30 minutes?? Love the Bates family. Thanks Ellie. Read your blog daily.

  9. Sorry - that home made see-saw appears to be a danger - anyone can look at it and see a half dozen problems with it. Some one is going to hit their face on the wood sticking up by the handles.

    1. I agree. The bates seem more real, while the duggars seem staged. Plus the duggard are so behind, it gets confusing and frustrating!
