Jon & Kate Plus Eight
Does anyone else watch this TV show on TLC? I'd almost watch it over Grey's! Talk about drama and fasdtpaced excitement! And some awfully cute guys on the show....
I just love that show! I have only one son, but I like the way Kate (the mom of twins and a set of sextuplets) is so organized. She has so many great tips for keeping everything done and on schedule. Plus, it's just hilarious to watch all those kids! I don't know how I'd do to handle 8 at once, but I'd sure love to have a couple more! I wish she'd write a book on how she keeps it all together...

Did you ever see her stomach when she was pg with the six? And then after? whoooooaaaa....someone offered to pay to have have surgery done for her and it made such a huge difference. I think she is really cute, and the DH is adorable and cracks me up. I literally cannot fathom how she does it...but that's nothing compared to the Duggars (the family with 17 or is it 18? kids!).

I cannot watch it. I only like reality shows that make me feel BETTER about my life. That one just makes me feel incompetent.

Oh, I love that show! I am just fascinated by it. I don't know how Kate does it. I only have one 2 year old and I feel that I will lose my mind sometimes. Their kids are adorable and so are they. They do have some really nice and helpful friends though which I am sure helps. I would pick this show to watch instead of many other prime time shows as well. |

I TVIO it and then I don't want to watch it because I know it is another week before it comes back on so I wait several days. Sad huh? I just noticed that this thread had a addressbar with Adoptions/toddlers and preschoolers. I have never seen that. There must be so much I am missing. Where do I go to find that? Didn't mean to Hijack

I love this show. It makes my life with only four young children seem so much easier and sane. Perspective is everything!

I also love that show. You can take many things away from that show but one thing I love is how she admits she is not perfect and her family does have fights timeout ect but they have love and they take it one day at a time. It humbles me to see a mother on national tv admiting she is not right all of the time many of us cannot even admit that to ourselves. She is to be admired but I did see her on Oprah and she said it took her 2 years to fully grasp that she will have 8 kids forever. She was in a state of shock for that time. With the eight children all young and needing attention you brain does not have time to process.
Also with the Duggars (i also love that show) that family at least has older children to help out not all young ones which makes a big difference too i would expect |

I love this show!!!
Mainly because I look at them and think I have ONE 3 year old to deal with and she has SIX! It actually makes me feel better about handling the typical toddler/preschooler stuff ![]()

We LOVE this show! Jon and Kate crack us up and Castle, who is the same mix as these children, thinks they are her brothers and sisters! Seriously, she will tell you they are "hers!" Our kids are 17, 13 and 3 so I surly can't imagine how they get out the door for anything!

Love this show!!!! The kids are sooo cute. I love when she talked about not caring that her kids did not look like her. LOVED THAT!
What a great family and how brave of them to allow their lives to be on TV. I don't think I could ever do that.

Love this show! Kate is my hero! My fav part is the interviews with her and Jon. They are so funny. She is so neurotic and Jon always get in trouble. They are so cute!
And Kate is (I think) the same age as me. I have 1 kiddo and can't get out the door some days. Did I mention she is my hero!
