I took my son to Alaska when he was 5 (15 years ago) and it is STILL one of the best trips we have ever been on. Those kids will have a blast!!

I was watching the show "Raising Sextuplets" on WE last night. The 6 kids were just turning 2. I guess the husband could be considered a 'male' Kate, but the main thing that struck me is how incredibly difficult it is on the couple and marriage.

Kate has a blog on discovery.com. This link is to an entry of some of the day-in-the-life-of things I miss about the early years of their show. We only have 5 people total in our house, but I know what it's like to miss or almost miss getting the trash out in time. I liked reading this from that blog entry too: "Our landscaping guys were diligently working on our green privacy screen (that's code name for: the paparazzi have had way TOO long to shoot photos of our every move, and the day has come that a large tree barrier is being planted to give us back some well-deserved and much-wanted privacy),..."

Looks like nobody watched this show last night. She took the kids to New York city by train to see some sights. The kids are getting really big. They are still cute as can be and she is just as annoying as she can be.

I agree, Sammy. The kids were fun to watch as always, but Kate running around in six inch heals was a bit much. And poor Mady. The excuse now is that she is "pre-teen", but she acted the same way when she was 7. That's not an attack, just an observation. Also, now that the little ones are getting older, I see a lot of resemblance between one of the little girls and Cara. I think they will grow up to look just like one another.

I have it recorded to watch later today. I just don't get ladies and those outlandishly high heels. I see gals wearing them at the mall all the time...ouch.

I've never gotten the heel wearing thing but I've known women in the past who always wore heels and claimed that their feet were so used to them they couldn't wear flats! So they even had those high heeled mule things for slippers! Doesn't work for me, but whatever floats their boat. I guess there was a time when I did wear heels to work and just accepted the pain (my first job) but luckily I evolved and my jobs as well to where lover heels were okay and after I snapped my anterior cruciate ligament, that was it for heels for me pretty much. Even post surgery, just not happening. I enjoyed their trip and I did watch it, just tonight. Sorry they couldn't go up higher in the Statue of Liberty.. I thought it had been re-opened to go to some level. Even when we visited in the fifties we could only go up to the crown, as the arm and torch route had been deemed unsafe. And I must say that as a shorter kid (and adult) I couldn't really see out all that well but we could say we walked up and down. I remember it being sort of tense with the open stairs. My mom and grandmother (her mom) both were very stiff the next day. My other grandma was older and she waited for us to come back down. I liked how they all worked at the games to make sure that each of the little kids had at least one stuffed animal prize to carry away.

Sometimes you gotta suffer to be sexy........... yet I don't understand doing the tourist bit , 8 kids and high heels. Makes no sense to me; but I am not thin so that likely makes a difference.

As I understand it with high heels: It's pay me now, or pay me later. 35 years ago I wore about 2 and a half inch heels to work every day for 6 years. I now realize even that wasn't smart. I'm 'paying later'.

So, it sounds like the lovely Jon Gosselin was trying to extort money from Kate. Every time someone complains about her ascerbic personality, look at <77> that woman lived with... I think it explains much of it. http://www.popeater.com/2010/09/01/jon-gosselin-extortion-documents-kate-gosselin/?icid=main%7Cmain%7Cdl2%7Csec1_lnk3%7C167744

ITA Huk'd. I think for a mother of 8, she's fairly sane.

I read a couple of those articles this morning.. so not surprised that Jon would act that way.. just as he tried to frame Hailey when he was being evicted in NY. He just seems to have super entitled syndrome. And thinks he is teflon syndrome when he showed off to Hailey (and god knows who else) his extortion efforts. But extortion is a sort of passive-aggressive crime and Jon always was passive-aggressive.

Anyone else think that Cara is way worse than Mady this season? Wow, she's a BRAT! I know she was very close with Jon, and they did a lot of athletic sorts of things together. She probably really needs therapy or she's going to blow!

Hadn't really noticed. But I would think everyone involved could use some therapy at some point. and probably again later, too. Yes, the turtles were special and the looks on faces of people too. Such adorable creatures, those turtles and so many. And I did lol that one kid told Kate she was lucky she didn't have THAT many kids at one time!

Kate went on Regis and Kelly (Kelly and Anderson Cooper)... and said that the kids hate going to Jon's and she just basically sits and waits for the phone call saying who wants to come home?? Even if that is true, it is hateful and hurtful to make such comments.
