Please enjoy this updated meme:
Aw yeah! The complete set!
After your post about Tori, I wanted to mention that in Everly’s bday reel by the Bates fam IG account you can see Tori in the background and she’s wearing a shirt with side ruching on the bottom half of the shirt (making it look like a maternity shirt). Both Duggar and Bates girls have made a point about wearing clothes that accent the bump when pregnant.
She was also stood with her tummy hidden behind the island👀
It’s interesting that, now that the shows are done, I think some fundies just won’t publicly announce pregnancies anymore. Like Tori, Kendra, Lauren, maybe Abbie will just show up at events from time to time with a bump or a baby in their arms and we’ll be surprised.

It is funny to me that, in early march, when we settled on this week to close the blog down, none of us realized that the last day would be Easter. It’s oddly fitting somehow.
Also, in all the polls results and reminiscing and planning I did for this week, I actually didn’t plan anything for today. So, ya know, if you have anything you want to send in, feel free to do so until about 6pm ET today. At that point, Em, Suz and I are having a video call with a little Prosecco toast and closing the inbox. Wild. Really odd. I don’t think I’ll really know how I feel about it until it happens.
but again, thank you for all the kind wishes this week! it’s been fun to be able to prioritize the blog in a way I really haven’t been able to since I started bar prep in November 2020. it’s been a treat.

Fundie Blogs to Follow
I’m going to do this in two parts - first, I’m going to make some personal recommendations and then I am going to make a list based on responses to my posts.
I’m going to include a cut to make this more reblog friendly - if I missed ya, apologies! feel free to shout yourself out the in the notes.
-T
Just wanted to say thanks for all your work on the blog over the years. I’m sure it has been challenging to juggle amid other responsibilities! Wishing you well in the next chapters of your lives.
Thank you so much- this is so kind! Very much appreciated!

If you check Gabby Patton’s IG story you’ll see a pic of her and Anna at Gabby’s vow renewal earlier this week. It looks like Joy and Abbie were bridesmaids and Esther also attended. I didn’t see Katey (she’s also close with Gabby) so I’m guessing Baby Duggar might have made his arrival?
He might have! Classic - right as we’re shutting down! Bets they announce on Monday?
-T
Last call: going to make a list of active fundie blogs for people to follow today - if you want to be on it, reply to this post in the next couple hours!
If you replied to the previous post, I gotcha, no worries!

Poll Results: When will Lawson & Tiffany get married?
On January 18, Lawson and Tiffany announced they would wed on May 12, 2022.
We had no correct guesses prior to the announcement, and one anon guess after.
Now, there are still some open questions in the poll set (wedding gown, bridesmaid dresses and honeymoon destination). Since the wedding isn’t until May, we won’t get those answers before KUWF closes down. I will post the final poll results once we have the answers to the final three questions on @keepingupwitht. I’m going to also add a link here once it’s up. NOTE [June 15, 2022]: The results are up. Please click here to view them.
I’m also pre-scheduling all these poll posts, and as of April 6, Jed and Katey have not announced the birth of their baby. NOTE [June 15, 2022]: The results are up. Please click here to view them.
Once I close out these two remaining polls, I will no longer be making polls - if any fundie blogs want to take up the mantle, I’m happy to share my poll templates with you.
If you were a poll regular, thank you. I really enjoyed making them.

yalls blog existed for pretty much the exact period of time i was in my phd program. i was an early follower so its making me a little sad to see u go. def a chapter of my life closing bc ive been gradually drifting away from fundieblr for a while, too. ty for all that uve done over the yrs, and so long
Thank you and congrats on the PhD! And yeah, I’m a little sad that this week is here - we’ve been talking about closing for a while but it’s different to actually be living here in our last week. But thank you again for your kind words - deeply appreciated!

Poll Results: Courtship Polls
As the poll wrap up continues, today we’ll be closing out the courtship polls.
Duggar Family
First, the Duggar poll. This poll is current, as the last Duggar courtship was Jeremiah and Hannah [results here] but just so you know, here’s where things stood when I closed the polls down:
Bates Family
Last time we updated the polls, Nathan and Lawson had entered into relationships. The next Bates to enter into a relationship was Trace, officially confirming his relationship in December 2021 and proposing on March 21, 2022.
Almost 69%(nice) of voters picked Trace to enter into a courtship next. Congrats to correct guessers, who I am going to put below a cut since there are several!
Baby Stewart #2 Poll Results
Next up in the poll results catch up series: Baby Stewart #2. A name that is already infamous on fundie tumblr and a literal carbon copy of his sister as a newborn - those genes are strong!
This is a longer post, so results will be under the cut!
Sorry to see you all go, but I get that life moves on. Thanks for keeping us up with fundies!
Thank you!!

Recommendations for more active fundie blogs to follow? With so many of my favorites leaving/inactive, I'm looking for new ones I might've missed.
Here's a pretty long list of blogs I made in October 2021. Most are still active, there are probably 2 or 3 in there that have since deactivated but they’re obvious.
Also in addition to those, here are a few more that are new or were mentioned in the notes of that posts (and that also seem fairly active):
@slysnarksfundies @fortheloveofallthatsfundie @fundiebabynamebible @sams-side-eye @fundies-and-brimstone @thefundiemuseum @frickingfundies @fundie-fanatic @fundiebabez2 @houseoffundies
If you’re an active fundie blog not on this list, shoot me your name! I can assemble a list here too of blogs to follow once we close

Baby Paine #5 Poll Results Part 2
For Part One, click here.
Finley Marie Paine arrived on January 18, 2022 (again - I’m playing catch up!). The Paine family didn’t share her length at birth, so this is just going to be birth date and weight.
Birthday
January 18, 2022 was the big day - let’s see how we did!
No one guessed it- good try, all!
Weight
Finley weighed 5lbs 4oz at birth. We had one correct guess by jdw - great work!
