I love how well y’all handle adversity and life with your children. Problems are a part of life and I’m so glad you handle what life throws at you with so much grace.

[@KatieLennox]

Agreed ❤Do you all feel like having a strong faith & support from church, family, friends plays a big role in how ppl cope with and handle adversity? This has been my observation & I'm just curious if others see this also?

[@bmbc100]

We've always known and done this with our babies. Push a silver dollar over the bump and hold it down with strong tape. Babies grow so fast in a week or 2 it will be healed

[@FernChristan]

Joy , my first name is Evelyn , and as you can see my middle name is Fern and I have a new grandson who is a week old. His name is Gunner. You all definitely hold a special place in my heart.

[@kimkelly9046]

Congratulations on your new grandson! A true blessing

[@AlexandriaParrish]

I have a new second Cousin. He was born on June 9th.

[@michelewilliams3761]

Congratulations on the new babe !!!!!!❤

[@michellegriffin1994]

Congratulation grandma!

[@celestelawler587]

I'm sorry for all those horrible names. I can relate. My middle name is Isabelle. 🤢

[@chessyharris6200]

It's good to see you two keeping a positive attitude and not letting the setbacks ruin your family vacation. ❤❤

[@Red-ct6wx]

Praise God! That’s wonderful from the doctors, Gosh your babies are so cute!! Praying for safe travels for everyone ✝️

[@amymorrill4647]

Joy, you seem so relaxed for having gone through all this with 3 little children!

[@aburg6393]

Many blessings to all of you - I am sure God is holding you in the palm of His hand ☺️

[@MargaretRejman-bt3hd]

You both make such beautiful children. Gunner is so cute. Very healthy looking. Enjoy your trip. Would love to travel there someday.

[@trumomone]

How exciting! Prayers for safe travels and a blessed vacation!

[@Pattiekins1]

It’s not the destination but the journey. I think that is what Austin was thinking. What a beautiful trip that should be. I hope and pray it goes well for y’all. 😊❤

[@kimkelly9046]

That is such a good ( and true!) saying

[@judyl.7234]

You will absolutely love Yellowstone! My first time was the summer I turned 16. My second time was a family trip, many years later, to celebrate our daughter's high school graduation. First time there were bears galore and herds of elk and caribou. Second trip they had moved most bears to remote locations because bears were becoming more aggressive and had done the unimaginable to people at campgrounds and other safety issues. Austin reminds me so much of my late husband. I lost him to cancer 21 years ago. I'm hoping, these many, many years later, I might get one more trip while I'm still able. Hope your family makes many happy memories and everything turns out great. Love your sweet family. You and Austin are great parents and I love to see how you express love to your kids. Wishing all good things come your way. Nana from North Carolina

[@neenroe11]

I’ve read comments and people are right…it’s an adventure and you’ll have those memories to share with the kids, as they get older! Can’t wait to see more videos from your trip!! Blessings and safe travels!! 🙏🏼🌄🏜️

[@kmcaretti]

I grew up traveling to national parks in a camper and later a 5th wheel. You are giving your kids precious memories.

[@hockeygirl8506]

Hope the rest of your trip goes well! Gideon lost another tooth. Gunner is a big boy for his age❤ he's doing great! Evelyn is such a sweet sister. Y'all are blessed.

[@agrant1819]

We just got back from Yellowstone last weekend with our 2 yr old and 3 month old. It was amazing! So many beautiful sites and stroller/kid friendly hikes. My husband and I wore baby carriers too, and that worked well! Hope you guys have a fabulous time & make great memories! Praying for safe travels and no more RV problems! 💕

[@HarvestMoon21]

"BIG" ....🤣🤣 Austin is just so funny and doesn't try to be!! Can't wait to hear the rest of y'all's memory making 1st official family vacation!!! BIG😅😅

[@nancyengle4656]

Austin: " (it's not about the setbacks)...It's about the JOURNEY !" 💖

[@blossombolton9829]

I thought maybe he was looking for the word "destination."

[@kimvoorhis4481]

It can’t be a family vacation without memorable moments. 😉 Praise God for Austin & Jed’s knowledge so they can take care of a lot of the issues. Also, great news on Gunners hernia! Yay! Enjoy your family! God bless!!

[@jillyann4]

🤮🤢

[@carrielynn1978]

I live in Casper, WY! About 4 hours away from Yellowstone! I hope you guys got the chance to stop here and check out the mountain and everything we have to offer here. We're considered one of the pass throughs on the way to Yellowstone

[@gertibell]

Even though it's terribly frustrating as parents to have a breakdown, I remember it being a fun adventure as a kid. One time we walked along the highway & found money. Another time a family picked us up & brought us to their house to give us jugs of water for our overheated car. They noticed my brother & I looked hot, so they let us swim in their pool.

[@TwinMama-jv3zb]

I love how you and Austin handle stressful events. So many people would have been so mad about the problem, it would have ruined their mood and the trip for everyone. Im so happy yall just go with it, deal with the problem, keep a positive attitude, and move on. Plus, it looks like the kids had a great time playong while the rv was in the shop. Hope the rest of the trip only has fun events and adventures!

[@celestelawler587]

Other people, especially those with young children, would have made sure BEFORE going on a road trip that their vehicle was in good shape to do so.

[@TwinMama-jv3zb]

@celestelawler587 They did, it was in working order, but older vehicles have issues that pop up randomly. A lot of people would have gone on a trip with just enough money for the trip, not enough to handle an emergency. We can say a lot about things others would do or what they should do, or what they could have done. But none of us are perfect, and they handled the problem in a very responsible and loving way, moved on with the trip, and they went on to enjoy it all. So I am happy for them.

[@christinabushong]

My son had one of those and it did heal without surgery. We did buy a waist bandage that helped with the process. Love how positive your family is with things that come up in life!

[@sondrabowers4837]

Good night. Sorry for vehicle troubles. Safe travels to you all.

[@jillwalls9330]

Oh my goodness. Hope you all make it safe and sound and have so much fun. Cant wait to see next week.

[@libbyjackson4498]

You are they sweetest family. Enjoy watching you. I noticed the two in their car seats in the RV. My grandchildren would say my legs are sleeping when they would dangle like that. So when they were in may car I bought two step stools and put them under their feet. The pediatrician said that was a good idea. Just wondered if they ever have complaints about their legs going to sleep.

[@kathy3178]

I hope the remainder of your trip was rv trouble free. Can't wait to see next week's vlog!

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

Oh me joy, it's definitely a Duggar trip. Lol. Bless your heart. Y'all are so precious. Beautiful babies. Good to Katie.

[@Eomma2023]

I was born and raised in southwest Wyoming and I hope that y'all enjoy your time in Yellowstone!

I hate y’all are having so much trouble praying things get better! I can’t wait to see the rest of your trip! Love Y’all Be safe! Praying for traveling graces! Love and Prayers Always

[@sharalynnaef3272]

My son (he is now 12) had an umbilical hernia when he was a baby. It did heal itself, I think it was when he was between 18 to 24 months. It was kinda worrying thing, thinking about him having to have surgery at such a young age. I'm glad it didn't have to happen. We live south of Denver and love Estes Park! Hope you enjoy Yellowstone! 💛

[@gymnasticsfan7036]

It makes me so, so happy to see the kids not only in car seats in the RV, but buckled in correctly! Great job!

[@katiegodfrey]

But they aren’t buckled correctly. The traps are too loose and Gideons chest clip is too low.

[@myndimcnicholas1075]

Wow

[@celestelawler587]

​@@katiegodfrey I guess that's what you can expect from a graduate of the Duggar dining table Academy.

[@beckybaessler7153]

Honeymooned in Yellowstone 43 years ago!! It's definitely about the journey and the experiences that your kids have!! Enjoy every moment of everything!! PS.. Austin is amazing!!

Hope you guys don’t have any more problems with your RV. So glad that the doctor said gunner well be OK and that the hernia will probably heal on its own. Have a great time on your vacation! Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida.😎🦩🌞🦩😎

Can hardly wait for ur next post. Have a wonderful time at Yellowstone! Ur n great company!!! ❤ u guys. God bless all of u.

[@aprilmapp3140]

It is nice seeing you going on a family holiday,have a great time God bless you all.x

[@janburlingame8702]

We home-schholed our 2 sons, and being that my hubs is a self employed trademan, we would just up and go when his schedule got light. We took our kids to a lot of US historical places. KUDOS for living with the great priorities that you have! The RV break downs are part of the adventure! It looks like an RV that has been refurbished-if so greatjob!

[@lisaqueenondathrone]

Seeing all the setbacks/delays makes me not want to take an RV trip anytime soon, yet seeing how beautiful the RV looks and how much more affordable it is makes me want one so, we'll see what happens 🤷‍♀ Hope it's smooth driving after this and you reach your destination in enough time to enjoy all Yellowstone has to offer. ☺

[@Val-jr4qy]

Can't wait to see the rest of your trip!

[@omirasantillanes5150]

Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Friday evening and night with the kids and a wonderful Fourth of July Weekend and hope Gunner feels better soon and praying for him and hope everything goes smoothly according to the doctors and nurses.🙏💖

[@lindacurtis1872]

Your children are so very blessed to have these experiences

[@CountryChloDoh]

My 2nd baby’s hernia was huge, and black in colour, was told if it wasn’t gone by one she would need surgery. It didn’t go down until around 18 months but we didn’t go for surgery so super thankful.

[@simplyme4756]

Like i always tell anyone that things like this happen to....there is a reason....we may never know why but you were not supposed to be any further ahead then you were...the lord is always in control and thats a comfort ❤

[@nancyengle4656]

Thanks be to God for your beautiful and sweet Family 🪕🎶♥🚐🛣🌎🙏💖

[@diannagose625]

My daughter had that with her belly button and the Dr. told me to do frequent tummy time during the day. When the stretch it helps hold it in.

[@susansparanormalpennsylvan81]

lol, your to do lists looks so organized, my parents wrote on paper, but they loaded up like 2 days before the major stuff, first we had a huge station wagon, and stayed in cabins/motels, then we had a camper van, then we had an RV which was a huge step up, my dad was a mechanic in high school and the army, then he went to college to become an electrical engineer____tip___keep brand new water hose, clips, fan belts etc... incase you need em asap.

Hi Joy & Austin! Just wanted to share with you that our #2 daughter was born with a “tummy hernia” as she grew out of it by the time she was 2 & 1/2. She never experienced any health issues and she is now, a healthy 33 yr old wife & momma! Prayers for your sweet Gunner to have the same outcome. ❤

[@debiogle3798]

Yes our youngest was born with an “outie” with no health problems. My mom told me to attach a button on it to hold it in…..but I followed the doctors advise.

[@lillianp-yj6yx]

cute chunk baby boy, he's adorable

[@blk123]

We did lots of camping when our kids were young. Makes for great memories. We don’t do the road trips anymore, we have our rv at a seasonal sight now. As we have aged it was getting to be too much work hooking up trailer and the setting up. Every stage of life has its advantages.

[@nicolaarchibald3171]

I enjoy watching how Joy has grown up and is now enjoying her own family. ❤

[@celestelawler587]

She's only 25 years old. I feel sorry for her. She never had an opportunity to do anything BUT get married young & start cranking out babies. This last pregnancy was her 4th. I hope it's her last one due the doctor's discovering that she tested positive for MTHFR, which makes her pregnancies high risk. Doctors looked back at her records closer & apparently instead of one strain, she has two which puts her at yet a higher risk.

[@diannesandford]

Enjoy your vacation! You are wonderful parents xx
