I really think Kate is amazing with her organization and housekeeping skills. She does an incredible job keeping the 8 little ones organized and pretty much well behaved too. But man she is a huge nag to Jon. She really does expect him to do a lot for her. And don't ya think she could have taken the kids somewhere when Jon was working in the garage? One other question I have is aren't there any grandparents involved?

Good question on the grandparents Julie, maybe we have not seen enough episodes yet.It is amazing how well orgaized Kate is and how she disciplines the babies. I am also interested in how Jon was received by the rest of Kate's family since he is from another race.Her brother however seems to really care for his neices and nephews. I like how he calls them each by their name. It is very difficult to imagine how she handles all of her responsibilites and just not be tired mpst of the time.

They refer to the almost three year olds as babies on the show. Guess "the babies" is an easier term to say than "the sextuplets."

Kate calls them babies, I am echoing her words and Jon is Asian. In 2007 we still have plenty of people who have comments on mixed marriages and many other topics related to race. Comments even when it is none of their "bidness".

i didn't realize he is asian. i am confused about the babies cause here is what it says on the E webpage A single mom when she met Peter, Katie's five-year-old son, Harvey, was born blind and with many other illnesses, and he requires frequent hospitalization and ongoing medical care. Katie and Peter put the care of their children above all and are fiercely committed to family life, despite their public image. Katie is now pregnant with the couple's second child (her third), due this summer; however, she and Peter remain extremely watchful of her health and safety following a much publicized miscarriage in July 2006.

Annie, you must be confusing this show with some other show... (It is JON and Kate, not PETER and Kate...)

Annie, the show you're referring to is on the E channel. This one is on TLC.

I have been watching. I think it is cute that all of the girls look like dad. They all have adorable "Asian faces" (one of the twins words). Mom seems a little overbearing and nagging (to dad). A few weeks ago she was interviewing housekeepers. No one was up to her standard. Good luck with that! I thought it was nice and interesting that she got a tummy tuck from a plastic surgeon fan of the show.

Kate can be a bit caustic at times, I agree. I believe that Jon and Kate love each other, bla bla bla, but I will scream! if they proclaim their love for each other after the show airs another one of their little spats. I mean, enough already. Me doth think that they do protest too much. Otherwise, I love the show!

I wouldn't blame them.. TLC tends to begin and end their shows with repetitions that are a bit long for me. This show and Little People, Big World, too. I think they edit her this way.. NOT that she doesn't put out that perfectionist vibe, but I think that is probably what saves their sanity with 8 kids, several of whome need lengthy nebulizer treatments daily.
