I may be wrong on this, but I thought I read somewhere that when the sextuplets were conceived, Kate was told that she had 7 viable eggs, and was recommended
to not go through with the insemination that month due to the likelihood of multiples, but they opted to go through with it regardless. Which to me is just
irresponsible...
but that may not be 100% accurate... |

Is it wrong that I kind of want to steal a few of the kids and have them come live with me? I love Colin, Aaden, and Hannah. They're all just so darn cute!
I agree that Kate can be quite bitchy sometimes, but if I had that many kids of those ages, I'd be a raging cunt 97% of the time.
yet they have special outfits for holidays (4th of July? Who dresses their kids in 8 matching 4th outfits?) and special occasions. My sister. She has three kids wth another one on the way, and she dresses them in matching outfits not just for holidays, but for vacations too. My poor nephew hates wearing matching outfits with 2 girls. I may or may not have helped him accidentally spill things on one or two of these outfits. |

I work for BRFS and have worked in that very store. So, assuming Kate had to wait for Jon to come home for work to go shopping, they must live nearby. |

As far as the matching outfits go, Kate has said before that they have a fan who sends them outfits for the kids for the special occasions. ( I can't
recall which birthday it was but once it was blazing hot and the outfits all had long sleeves!) I remember thinking at the time that this person spent a
tremendous amount of time and effort for strangers but some people really enjoy sewing and for them it's fun. I guess the added benefit is seeing stuff
you made on the kids on TV.
On the FAQ show, someone asked J&K what procedure they'd had and the answer was they had uterine implantation. I'm not really up on conception methods other than the traditional one but they seemed to differentiate this from artificial insemination. I'm sure someone will fill me in. Even though I'd be happy not to see her at all, I think Mady has had enough of having a camera in her house all the time especially when its not filming her. I think that's pretty typical of most kids. I've really enjoyed watching the progression of the kids as they grow and love how their personalities are so different. It's been great to watch them emerge from the collective and become their own people. Jon and Kate do an amazing job, help or no help, and I take my hat off to them. I love this show. And P.S. - Leah is my favourite. And Aiden for the male side of things. |

When they went to the Hershey's chocolate factory, Kate mentioned that it was weird that they had never been there because it was just around the corner.
I haven't seen every episode but it seems to me that Leah and Cara have gotten less camera time than the others. Have they shown all their special days? What did Leah, Cara and Joel do on theirs? Thanks Lori! v v v v

Leah went to a bouncy house where she jumped and slid down a slide, Cara went rollerblading and Joel went to a Hands On Place where he got to do all sorts of
things.

Leah is definitely the most UTR of the 6 little kids, but I thought she was adorable on her bouncy place special day.

I still confuse Alexis and Leah. I know Leah is the tiniest and the one who speaks the best but when I see them alone I can't tell who is who.

Based on mondays episode...Mady is the worst behaved, followed by alexis. Collin is the worst for the boys, followed by aaden, but really not that bad and
really easy according to kate. Joel, Leah and Kara have there moments but for the most part are well behaved. Hannah is the most well behaved of all the
children. I love that head-bob of madys shes copying. Hopefully thats the only "negative" part of mady shes copying. I also liked that they said
postive things about mady. They said she has a million great charateristics and jsut needs to be reassured that shes a great kid. They rarely compliment mady
so it was nice to hear that.

Mady is the best! I laughed so hard when she kicked her brother, and when he did not react, she kicked him harder. Then when Aunt Jodi confronted her about it,
Mady came up with the lamest lie on the planet. She is just like me as a little kid. I was a terror to the kids who were younger than me. Granted, I grew up to
be docile but with a vicious rhetoric.

I've only seen a little of several episodes a while back but I saw the commercial this weekend about this Monday's show was to be parenting tips
from Jon and Kate. I don't watch the show due to the screaming, hitting, and general chaos those 8 kidlets cause. The only way I think I'd manage my
sanity with that brood would be lots of xanax.

It blows my mind that those kids are 3/4 caucasian.
