Joy-Anna captioned her Instagram Story post, “Morning Shannanigans.”
The snapshot showed her husband playfully tossing Gideon in the air while sitting in a recliner.
The chair was placed in front of the living room window, and the back of the recliner, full-length mirror, and upright piano seemed to block the door.
A fan took a screenshot of the Instagram Story post and posted it on Reddit.
The fan created a social media post to poke fun at Joy-Anna's spelling of the word “shenanigans,” but most commenters focused on the strange layout of the living room.
One person asked, “What's the layout like?”
They continued, “Is that lone chair right next to the window blocking the door? Is the mirror and piano blocking the door too?!”
“Very confusing,” the Redditor concluded.
“That's their back door,” said another, adding, “They block it all the time.”
A third fan said: “The chair may actually be further forward than the angle of the photo suggests…the piano looks a little closer, but maybe the door can finally be opened all the way. But why is this the case?” What about that mirror? ? ”
A fourth said: “I always thought the layout of their great room was weird and there shouldn't even be a door in it. I think they agree lol.”
Elsewhere in the comment thread, someone asked, “Why is the area rug so flush against the wall?”
“Hahaha! I didn't notice! Looks like the coffee table is in a weird position too,” added another.
Another source said, “agreed that the layout of their main room has always been odd.”
you don't know me
Recently, the former TLC star fired back at the critics who constantly comment on her life in a new YouTube vlog.
Joy-Anna answered several questions from fans in a Q&A video shared on her family's YouTube account.
One particular question that got a candid answer from the former reality personality was about how she handles fame.
Before answering, Joy-Anna read a fan's question: “What's the hardest thing about living in the spotlight?”
Joy-Anna tackled the investigation head-on, admitting that dealing with other people's opinions about her life was the “hardest part”.
“It's annoying…because you don't know much about me,” she added.
The YouTuber has recently been in the spotlight for her parenting methods.
Last week, Joy-Anna was accused of making several serious mistakes while cutting her daughter Evelyn's hair.
hasty haircut
She recorded herself cutting the girl's long blonde hair.
The video showed the tiny baby sitting on a bar stool while her mother measured the length of the trim.
As Joy-Anna wet her hair in preparation for the cut, she smiled for the camera.
Joyanna used basic kitchen scissors to cut off her daughter's neck.
Evelyn smiled as she watched her mom and dad style her new bob, and even looked in the mirror to see the final look.
She captioned her post: “Do I regret it? I cut Evie's hair at home.”
However, Joy-Anna's daughter has very curly hair, so fans quickly realized that her haircut may have been wrong.
“She has beautiful curly hair and needs to be taken care of by someone who actually knows how to cut curly hair. Just cut the curls,” one person wrote.
“Why are you cutting her hair?” I asked again.
“Get me some hair scissors,” begged a third.
A fourth woman advised, “Cut them with scissors to avoid split ends.''
“The hairdresser in me is hurt watching you cut the top of your finger,” a fifth woman claimed.
