The latest episode I wathched was when Jon and Kate started a chore board. Those kids were so cute eaderly sweeping crumbs and making beds. There were 2 of the little kids (can't remember which ones) that just didn't want anything to do with cleaning up....not too bad 6 out of 8 were willing.

The Duggar Family are expecting again. #18 due. They are currently filming another series for the discovery channel, as well. Saw this on the today show this morning.

I'm glad they can support these kidlets, but geesh...they'll be a hundred years old when the newest one graduates high school (and have a Mom with really long gray hair).

IMO, it is a bit gross to think about giving birth to 18 children. I mean, seriously, how much fun can that REALLY be for Mr. Duggar?

She was considered high risk a couple of kids ago. There comes a point when it's time to consider slowing down a little.

I was catching up on the Jon & Kate Plus 8 shows I'd missed, so I'm combining things from different episodes because I don't remember what happened on which show. They showed Joel getting his special day. He is so adorable! He and Dad went somewhere like a pretend-land (gosh, I can't even remember from last night!). He asks, "what's this?" about everything, but had such fun with Dad. There was an assembly line kind of set up and the kids were supposed to follow directions to complete some task. Jon showed him one time, and Joel was able to do it by himself the next time. Smart little guy! I also saw Mady have her ears pierced for her special day. They then went to Red Robin Restaurant and let her order whatever she wanted. What a difference in that child when she had time alone with her parents! She was very appropriate and loved her day. I was so happy that they let her choose a milkshake with whipped cream and sprinkles and a hamburger, I think. No mention of eating organic and such, just let her have what she wanted. Good for them! Leah went with both parents to a bounce house. Such a bundle of energy. Both parents commented in their diary room thing that Leah is nearly always happy and well behaved. They all seemed to have a lot of fun together. Leah especially loved the big slide. Jon & Kate used giant boxing gloves and sparred. Kate said she could hardly even pick up the gloves because they were so heavy. I'm not sure why exactly that some kids have their special day with just one parent and others have it with both. Doesn't seem to matter, they all enjoy themselves. Funniest thing of the night...they all went to a Crayola factory and some of the kids had to go potty. They then put the camera on Joel, who said, "I don't have to go potty, because I have a weiner." Then he said, "Daddy's have weiners." Omg, I was laughing out loud at that! I think what made it even funnier is that they captioned what he was saying, but I understood what he was saying anyways. They sure seem to be very well adjusted children and a very nice family. Love love love this show and will miss it when they decide they've had enough of the cameras following them around.

I think Kate has learned a lot form watching herself the first season. Cuz she is not on Jon as much as she used to be. Of course, the kids getting a little older/easier may have helped too. She used to drive me wild how harsh she was with Jon, but I find myself enjoying her more and more.

I think they are just adorable. I was cracking up when Jon took, I think it was Collin, to the farm and he said he couldn't see sheep and Jon had to do a double-take on what he heard him say.

It was Aaden who couldn't "see sheep". Jon & Kate decided that the boys' special day would be with Jon only, so that they could have bonding time with their dad.

They said in a year, he could go back and get more transplants done (probably on the crown of his head this time), but unless the company's willing to pay for it again, I doubt that'll happen. I was watching the old Jon and Kate's. They've been playing them at lunchtimes. Anyway, it was the one where Kate got her tummy tuck. It's amazing. I mean, I knew her stomach wouldn't look great after carrying sextuplets, but since she was considerably young (strechy skin and all), I expected it to not be as bad as it was. I LOVE Jon and Kate. I'm enjoying watching it daily now that I'm not in school. :D

I'll bet that surgeon will again do it for free. The exposure is worth every cent he's not getting from Jon.

They were on the Today show this morning but I only caught the end. The kids all seemed very well-behaved.

There is going to be a special on Monday night which I believe shows how they met and how they ended up with all the kids. The new season starts June 30th. I've never seen the show before, but those kids were very well behaved in the studio. One got up and the mother just turned around and said "couch" and the kid jumped right back up. When they started to make to much noise, she said "Shhh" and they all quieted down.

I have my doubts about Kate, and then ran across this "blog" by someone who spent a lot of time? (Did Kate intentionally get treatments? Did they turn down adopting a Korean child? Why dont they communicate with Kate's family?) (and followed the link to Gosseslins without pity - very interesting) Chapter 1... http://preesi.lefora.com/forum/category/my-case-against-kate-gosselin/page1/

The Dugger's are expecting another worker ant for their brood. Those kids don't just do chores! They are expected to cook in an industrial sized kitchen, do laundry all day, and other numerous jobs attributed to the family, while the mother "teaches" the school. I bet their older girls are cringing at the added work of another baby.

I'm not sure what your take on the link is, Reader or if you are just posting the link for discussion. I, for one, don't buy a word of it. It smacks of sour grapes to me. Who IS this blogger, and why does (s)he invest so much energy in the Gosselins? As far as I'm concerned, those parents love those children, the children are taken care of, and are happy and well adjusted. For this "blogger" to even hint that some doctor would provide fertility treatments to Kate just because she wanted multiples, is completely ridiculous. No doctor would do that. I actually didn't even read the entire thing because it just stunk of phoniness and jealousy.
