Finally! Jon & Kate's Big Move....A fan Meets Kate in Chicago

Hello Gosselin fans! I was so exhausted last night, I watched the repeated episode of this at midnight with one eye open. I guess Kate being on Larry King overshadowed my excitement for seeing the new house. But here we are, isn't this what everyone has been waiting for? A show with them just being home and seeing their everyday lives and doing NOTHING? Then why do I wish they would just go somewhere and do something? And more imprtantly, why is this no longer enough for anyone anymore?

This episode truly had only one thing or maybe two that the hate blogs would be all up in arms over. Lets start off in the beginning when Kate welcomes everyone into their new home. Can you smell the jealousy? Its truly hard to enjoy a place that big when its so empty and not yet a home. We got to see the kids packing, Kate freaking about dirt (which I looovvve) and poor Alexis getting the short end of the stick for running on boxes. Poor Jon is trying to pack while Kate is away. Thank goodness they were smart enough to hire some sort of moving company. We tried that ourselves once and vowed NEVER to do it again. If that was my husband I swear he would do nothing and wait till I got home. Anyway since there's obviously no rush on the move they take little by little what needs to be brought. When they get to the house we get to see what people claim is a new refrigerator.I swear I spit my drink out when I saw that, because I knew that was the 1st think the snarkers will fume about. Its it really new or were the panels just taken off the old one? Who cares, the kids finally venture out and learn that they truly can be off by themselves and have their own spaces now. There not used to the openness yet, as most of them still all play in the same room.

Ahh, when Kate gets started these are the moments I love. Shes freaking out again, this time over using a coupon for a $50 shower head. Now you KNOW that since the episode was pretty quiet this is gonna be the major headline: KATE WITH $5 STARBUCKS LENTI COMPLAINS ABOUT COUPONS! Well let me start by saying my drinks cost alot too. I also would be pissed my husband spent $50 on a shower head and I too would force his behind back to the store. How the heck can we all afford Starbucks if we don't skimp on other things! And for the record, I too saved $20 on some sheets at BBB. They even take expired ones! (Don't ever go there without one) Remember people, the richest are so because they are the BIGGEST coupon clippers! TRUST. So now its time to see the cute boys exploring their new backyard and I think poor Joel falling & pulling up his pants again. But nobody in blog land can enjoy that, they're too busy complaining about how their are so much in despair while Kate is complaining about a coupon.......Why dwell, and why can't anyone just be happy for this family? And when is Alexis going to get her own spin off show?

A Fans Story on Meeting Kate This weekend at Willow Creek Church~ By Laura T.

"My day began at 5:30 when my alarm went off! I got ready for the day and my friend picked me up at 6:30. We arrived at the church around 8am.The church was beautiful and big. I have never seen such a big church in my life, and it was gorgeous. We sat down near the front of the church, in the middle. We wanted to make sure we had a perfect view of Kate! The service began with singing, complete with piano, drums, guitar and backup singers. It was a wonderful, contemporary experience. About 20 minutes into the service, Kate was introduced and she came out looking stunning! She was wearing an above the knee red suit, black heels and the typical Kate haircut! I must say she looked better in person than she does on television. She is more petite in real life than she does on the show! The church played the Season 3 opening sequence as an introduction. The theme for the past month at this church was “Families at their Best.” Kate was the finale to this series. The theme of the interview was about how God helped her and Jon through all of their struggles.

She reiterated many points that she talked about in Multiple Blessings. She was very charismatic and funny. She talked about when she was at her first ultrasound with her second pregnancy. Throughout this conversation, the church would play clips from the show. The first one they showed was when Jon and Kate went out to eat for Valentine’s Day. The sextuplets were still little. Anyway, this clip highlighted all of the screaming children, potty training, dirty diapers, and finally getting out of the door! It ended with Jon and Kate at the restaurant ordering their food and having one of their normal fights. Anyway, the interviewer asked how Jon and Kate have stayed a strong couple. She replied that the kids are on a strict schedule and they try to use each minute as it comes. She said they try to use moments when they are checking email and so on. She said that when they are alone, they try to talk about the day and what their arguments were and how they can fix them, like any normal couple!

Another interesting thing she talked about was giving. She said that once she moved into the house where the show has been filmed for a long time, that they were able to start saving money. She said that there was this one family that her sister had spoke about who was going through a rough time. The father lost his job and was trying to support 4 children. Well, Kate and Jon thought it would be nice to write them a check. Kate kept putting it off because she kept thinking that her 8 children could have used the money. But, one day she wrote the check, and ran it out to the mailbox. In the mailbox was a box with a red ribbon around it. As she was running back to the house (because her 8 toddlers were in the house) she opened up the box, and there was a Sam’s Club gift card in the exact amount she wrote the check for. She said it was amazing how God provided for her, and it was good that she could help another family, just as those helped her.

She also spoke about the feeding schedule when the sextuplets were just born. She talked about how it was the hardest part for her as a mother, to give up her babies to other people, so they could be fed. The babies had to be fed, and then they had to sit up for a while after, so they wouldn’t get indigestion. She said it was the start of being less controlling, because she knew it was in her babies best interest; they needed to be fed!

Kate mentioned the guilt she felt as a mother after the six were born towards Cara and Mady. She knew she no longer had the time she used to have with them. She related this guilt to a normal sized family who just added one baby into the mix. Cara and Mady now had six brothers and sisters and their parents had to take care of them. She said that often, volunteers would come over and play with Cara and Mady, while other volunteers were feeding the babies. She wanted her oldest girls to feel loved and needed too.

Before too long, the interview was over, and Kate left the stage. I quickly left the service and got in-line for the book signing. I had to pass my book to one person, my camera too another, and then I got to walk up to the table where Kate was. I tried to pose for a picture, which did turn out, but I am not satisfied. I was so nervous, but I told Kate that I love the show, I love her family. I thanked her twice for coming here, and we made eye contact and she said “Thank You.” I could have died. I was extremely happy. I ended up buying another book so I could get another book signed. The next time I spoke to her, the lady behind me handed her 6 books at once! I just said, “I bet your getting used to this unfortunately.” She replied in a friendly tone, “Yes I am,” and smiled.

I am so glad that I had such a positive experience. She is just as nice as she is on the show, maybe even nicer! Now when I watch her on television and she says how grateful she is for all of the things her family receives, I know she is speaking from the heart. I’ll be watching the show from now on with an even more positive outlook than I started with!"

Kate Gosselin On Larry King Live

Hello Gosselin fans! Which one will you watch tonight? Both the big episode when the family finally moves and Kate will also be on Larry King Live BOTH at the same time! I am so glad that they repeat the show because I am dying for Kate to spar off against Larry. So many times people would make comment like..Ohh I can't wait until Kate goes on a show like Larry King.. Why, you don't think she can handle it? I think that she is MORE than ready to deal with his types of questions..You go Kate, I'm rooting for you! (lol) Larry King is both taking questions and has an exclusive blog for the event. The comments are..the usual. Feel free to comment HERE. I will post a separate blog later once I watch the episode, as I was glued to my seat watching Larry King and haven't seen it yet! I couldn't get my kids to bed in time! I made them brush their teeth in like 30 seconds! (lol)

"A parent of multiples will forever be answering questions, fending off judgment and making logistical adjustments to make life fit their situation. This is just another part of life with multiples that will eventually become normal but, again, takes adjustment and wisdom."~Kate Gosselin on Larry King

Kate Does Great On Larry King Live

Ohh how I love to prove those haters wrong. I cant remember how many comments used to come on the blogs saying things like "ohh they need to get Kate on Larry King live. He'll really stick it to her". Lets just start off that Kate in Chicago was via satellite. She is currently in Oak Brook Illinois for a book signing tomorrow. I was amazed, she looked absolutely beautiful tonight. She almost passed out when Larry first called her a different name (her called her Jane), after that it was all business. She probably didn't realize the number of umms you say (lol) but spoke very eloquently on how she struggled the first year and how deeply concerned she is for the new mom. She could have gotten really snarky about it, but all she said was basically she wished her the best. What question did I love? Does it become your right to judge other peoples parenting? How about when they are on TV? Kate answered that with class saying "Id did put my family on TV, but everyone is entitled to parent there kids how they see fit". Or something like that.. I gotta get that video footage. The trolls were already commenting before she show was on. All anyone can say is if Kate had work done. More superficical, jealous and bitter comments are sure to come!

The important point of this interview was, why are we entitled to say anything about this mom and her babies? Is it because they are not even a week old and shes already fielding out millions for the first interview? Is it because they're are 6 others that will also need her attention? And does it make sense that she is being vilified so early in the game since shows like Jon & Kate Plus 8 are making families with multiples so much money? This interview was great because it opened up so many questions to discuss. But who are we to judge? Or will people wait to judge when this woman has her own reality show? The answers will obviously be sooner than later......

If you were Kate, what would YOU do? Access Hollywood & CBS News sees The Kids Not So Great Moments

UPDATE! Hello Gosselin fans! I have had alot going on at home so I'm sorry I haven't been able to post every day like I normally do. I am a mother first and foremost and I do have a life outside of this blog. I am in the process of deciding whether to moderate my blog. I became pretty irate every time a little troll would try to come and stir the pot. I tried originally to let everyone who wished to make a comment on, and when I deleted something people got confused. Then when I blocked everyone from commenting all together I got a few little fits on my email. So I am working the 6 month kinks out and seeing whats best for this FAN page. Thanks for your patience!

Mady Disrespects Kate, Kate Calmly Handles The Embarrassment

Those of us that have children, especially as I have one exactly Mady's age, will do whatever they can to push boundaries and go beyond what was appropriate. But what if it was during an interview on National TV? Would you have handled her outbursts any better? And do you think anyone has the right to judge Kate because she does expose her family to the criticism? UPDATE: Access Hollywood REMOVED the video. I'm sure because of the nasty comments from the hate boards. This is from You Tube:


Kate Does A Great Job With The Kids Again on CBS News

I have to give it to Kate. If my kids were acting up like this I would have jumped on their behinds in front of everyone. Seriously, I applaud Kate for keeping her cool and dealing with the kids when were acting up. Of course they would rather not be there, but if YOUR kids were on TV acting naughty would you be able to handle it any better. Bravo Kate! I'm sure she needed a spa day after this two sets of interviews.

And finally, I received a wonderful sweet letter today from Rev. Craig Yoshihara today thanking me for supporting his very public feud with the people over at GWOP. I will not be publishing it here. They have horribly harassed this poor Pastor and my heart aches for him. It only shows how vile the people are that are posting on that site. I hope they will think for a minute how terrible it is what they are doing and how bad it makes them look and the site they are posting on. These are the people that CLAIM they are here for this kids! GWOP should be ashamed!

House Breeds Hatred, Octuplets Advice From Kate, Rev. Craig Tells GWOP The Truth & Where To Go

Hello Gosselin Fans! I almost passed out in my chair today when I saw the amount of hits on my site yesterday. Almost 10,000 for only yesterday and over 18,000 page views! Now to bad for a blog that wasn't supposed to mean anything huh? Please continue to come and share this amazing ride with me. I finally feel that there is some method to my madness...Comments are welcome! And I appreciate all the sweet e-mails telling me to stand high amongst all the negativity and continue to talk about the family everyone loves to watch and read about. I hope you are OK while we go through this ice storm. Its slushy snow now and the most horrible of commutes.

I have to start with the horrible horrible jealousy and bitterness that came onto the blogs when the episode we have all been waiting for Came out. On Monday, TLC’s show ranked No. 1 for it’s time slot on cable, pulling in over 1.6 million women between the ages of 18-49. The episode beat out the season premiere of TNT’s “The Closer,” by 400,000. So every snarker that commented on a hate site contributed to Jon & Kate Plus 8 being the #1 CABLE SHOW ON MONDAY NIGHT. So thank you trolls, this family appreciates it! The down-right vulgar, nasty and downright scary jealous snarking comments were beyond called for. Of course, the nasty e-mail I sent to Sharla for being the


Kate Gives Advice to the Octuplets Family

There are SEVERAL news articles regarding Kate. On Parentdish.com, Kate cautions the new California mother that, like all new moms, she should "look forward to feelings of overwhelming proportions -- good, bad and ugly." But unlike moms of singles or twins, moms of remarkable multiples will be barraged by outsiders. "People will pop up with advice when they have no idea [of] the situation." And of course, more babies means more help, which means more people around all the time.

On NBC. COM & Access Hollywood, Kate went further to discuss how life was turned upside down: “I wish someone would have told me that every — every aspect of my life would change… not only our family size, number of children, hopes and dreams, logistics of how things are done and that houses are not built for our family’s makeup,” Kate explained. “Boxes of cereal, rolls of paper towels, and boxes of snacks or recipes are never ever going to be big enough again for us!”

There is also another article from ABC News about the cost of raising Octuplets. You wonder how people can blast Kate for having her hand out when her kids are born. It is very much the norm now to have families with multiples opening their arms to anything the could get. Its very expensive to raise that many kids!

Rev. Craig Yoshihara Blasts The people at GWOP

If you live in Atlanta, GA, please please go to see Jon & Kate at the Roswell Methodist Church. A troll or two wrote to the church in the hopes that they would have something cool to post on a hate site like "yeah what I do really does make a difference". I don't know if they were trying to protest them coming or what. Anyway Rev. Yoshihara actually wrote back telling her not no e-mail him anymore! Not only that, but here are a few Gems that he wrote to her and she made sure the site posted:
"If you would actually like to speak to me about your concerns, please call. I implore you as a fellow Christian to withhold judgment unless you know them personally to be doing these things. Most of what you speak of is pure speculation, rumor, and gossip - all of which are not Biblical. Thank you for your concern."
Peace and Blessings,

Holy Your Not Getting Anywhere With This Batman! It was so very happy to get this e-mail from a fan. I feel so bad that his e-mail had to be ripped apart on that horrific site. I will make sure to personally thank him for telling them...to go take their anger & jealousy elsewhere!

Where Did Jon & Kate Move? Ohh Yeah its THAT house

Hello Gosselin fans! While most people were finally excited to see the house that obviously was THE house, I was more concerned how a hate site would have even known about this information months prior before anyone. What axe to grind must one have to showcase a families dream house before anyone was entitled to see it? This Sunday when I got home from running around with the kids they had my most favorite episodes on. How We Got Here & Valentines Day. The first we don't get to see often, and it was a treat to watch while eating dinner. By dinner I mean pizza. Anyways..........

Not One Of Kate's Finer Episodes...But She Is Human

Lets focus on the first things the haters will discuss. Hannah gets her own room. Lets cry foul before they do..wait too late! Ohh and this is their VERY last episode they are watching! This time! They swear! And how cruel could it be to not allow someone in your bedroom! Well if I was able to. I would do the same thing! Why, well lets start off with cut I have on my foot from stepping on stuff that was on my floor that was not even mine....listen Kate is Kate and if she finally wants a sanctuary of her own away from the kids then let her. Today we finally get to see the beautiful house we saw in pictures. Funny thing is, all the beautiful furniture is gone. The horses are gone. The place is filthy and not exactly the showroom photos we once saw. This is so true when you move into someone else's house. You never know what your gonna find. Why, its a house with a flat mouse! Lets just say that this will be the cleanest house you will ever see. Once the furniture is in it will be interesting to see how the house looks. I really liked the fact that Kate spoke in the beginning about how blessed they are to be there. Funny I don't feel you will hear anyone mention that. Just that the kids are pooping everywhere and now Kate has a house big enough not to be able to find them. Don't we wish we had these problems (lol). For the record, some kids DO need help at that age. But I don't blame Cara for wanting to do it for him ;)

We need to keep remembering we saw 22 minutes of the hours they were there. Overall, I'm sure that it was hard to see the house empty and your wondering how they will even fill it. Well I guess the joy is just knowing its yours to take the time and fill. That and to figure out what to do with a giant tractor! And while I do feel that the girls might have been better suited to each have their own room, I know alot of twins that do not like to be separated. I think it was great that they got to roam and enjoy being in their new home, I was more angry that they intentionally focused on Kate's 4 hour fridge clean. I now feel that they did this just to piss all the haters off and make the quotes from the same 20 people go into the hundreds. It was a bit of an anti-climatic bore, but I was more excited to hear what the other trolls were going to say. I wish them well in their new private space, and agree if any family I know deserves it, they do. The kids really seemed to love it.

Kate Gosselin Texas Book Signing & Appearances, Jon & Kate Plus 8 New LiveJournal Community

Hello Gosselin Fans! This weekend was a busy one for me as usual! My baby who is now walking (yipes) went into the bathroom and accidentally flushed some Polly Pocket Dolls down the toilet. Kinda like when my kids "accidentally" deleted 7 years of memories off my computer. Anyway now we have what we thought was a cesspool issue and now is a clogged pipe or something. My husband is fuming. I'm telling you all this while I'm trying to go out with the girls for the first time in weeks. Mama needs a night out to de-stress and everyone should do that once in a while! Why am I being made to feel guilty about this??

So speaking of "Girls Night Out" I received a few wonderful positive e-mails about Kate's recent trip in Texas this past week at the Champion Baptist Church. That girl is now a very busy woman and even I can't keep track of all the places shes been recently! From what I hear, this show was in the thousands and everyone had a wonderful time. I would like you to read a letter I got from Beka who was at the event and whose photo is above.

"I am a christian and I believe that she truly has a heart for God. So she doesn't look perfect on TV. Well who does really? The Bible says He that is without Sin must cast the first stone. Well those people bashing her probably are not Christians because if they are then they need to get right with God because they are not sinless. Who are they to judge when they are not perfect. She is the most amazing person and Let me add I used to work at boys and girls country in Texas which is a childrens home. I lived with 8 teenage girls. 8!!! And they were from all different backgrounds and some with special needs. I lost my voice because of the strain of taking care of them because as you see with Kate it requires a ton of discipline and TALKING...I had to leave my job because my voice couldn't take it, but those girls changed my life. I know how kate feels because in a different way I have been there and I wasn't always nice to the girls. I got annoyed and lost my temper. I am Anal too and organized. In fact I'm a professional organizer so we are a lot alike. My family says i am always in my own mood. Well aren't we all?

The place Kate spoke at was sold out. Seated 4,000 and so they had to have another show that seated another 4,000 so they ended up feeding the midday show lunch. I guess kate knew they would need it. When Kate came out she was given a standing ovation. I was amazed. I knew she was loved, but seeing all those christian women from all walks of life being encouraged by her too. WOW!

I have a twin sister(identical) and because my parents believed like Kate and Jon they didn't have an abortion which was what the doctor suggested because of my mothers age. We were also born healthy. Now at 25 years old my twin and I face difficulties every day with trying to follow God no matter what and watching Kate and Jon and all those amazing kids reminds us just how special being a multiple is. We were hand picked by God. Meeting Kate even for a second, even though I only got to say thank you and she said your welcome..it was amazing and encouraged me so much that I want to pray for them more than before. She is now so real to me and not just some TV star. I saw her face to face. The line for her signing was so long it took us an hour to get to see her, and there was tons of people behind us. AND...she had to sign more at the show before. So all the things people say about her, come one. She works harder than most people I know, and yet you don't see her buying things much for herself. She uses coupons, buys for the kids, and saves. And she gives back too. She is a woman after God's own heart. I hate to say this but all the people who spend their time judging her will have to face their judgment one day when they meet God face to face. They will one day see that God doesn't honor that and if they are Christians than how they live on earth will be shown to them when they get to heaven.

I'm sure not perfect, nor is Kate. But I know that when we both get to heaven it will be amazing because we will have at least tried to follow God no matter what others say or do to us. We will fight the good fight."

Thanks Beka! I just read on MomHouston.com and from Barbara that Kate was also on Friday doing a book signing at Barnes and Noble in Pearland Texas Town Center Friday night from 6-9 p.m. Alot of people also went to that and said Kate was wonderful. Guess they have alot of fans from Texas! Take a look to your right, I updated from my post HERE the updates speaking engagements of Jon & Kate. If you know of any I haven't listed please e-mail me!

Jon & Kate Plus 8 LiveJournal Community

A fan named Jen just created a livejournal community for the Gosselin Family. It is the first active lj community for Jon & Kate Plus 8. She was hoping I could mention it so she can get the word out there to all who have a livejournal who are also fans of the show. Please check it out HERE.

Trying to set the record straight, about Jon & Kate Plus 8!

Hello Gosselin fans! I know this is an old picture but its MEMORIES! Of the old house I mean...(lol) I thought for today I would stray from the "norm" and talk about RUMORS. To me, its some haters big mouth babbling on a board talking about something they "heard" on another site. Then someone reads that garbage and automatically believes it to be so. That pisses me off to no end.

1: One of the things the supposed "on the fence-ers" want to know is: "Why did Kate make the comment about "societies obligation" to pay for the nurse to stay after the tups are born?" Well first of all, lets state the facts. Some lame article was written HERE. She was called at the house and had a brief interview with a person who took only a minute or 2 call and pulled several quotes from other sources. If you look at the comment she said its not even in quotes. Why? Because it wasn't said to that person by Kate. But lets put it in the title of the article to drum up as much publicity and anger within tax paying citizens as we can. Now that's not to say it wasn't said by her, it was. But keep in mind if we only knew what other ridiculous, wasteful things are taxes are going to, why wouldn't we , if we were her, want or expect for this extended service to be covered?

Here's the thing, she said it wrong. While the proper comment SHOULD have been, "I am hoping that I could try to keep this wonderful nurse and see if it could be covered" her verb age has never been the best, and it offended people. What pissed me off was people all the sudden hopped on the "hate wagon" and felt like they were personally paying for the caring of these babies. First, why wouldn't you want to do what you could to help someone? And have you ever inquired as to where your taxes actually go to, what they're spent on? You cant change what you pay, so why do you care if it goes to one stinkin nurse? Well for one thing, it was because it was Kate.

2. Kate has money! Why isn't she just using that instead of claiming poverty?: Someone mentioned to me that one of the haters kept saying Jon's father left them a six figure insurance policy when he died 01/05. First off, Cheryl, you read that over at GWOP and they lie like rugs. How do you know that? Because they told you, therefore its 100% accurate. I tried to investigate this myself, and this is what I FOUND...Jon's dad only had his practice and a car that was given to Jon & Kate & sold. The practice was split. Now I read myself that the people that were commenting at the time at GWOP 5 months ago said they only HEARD he had money. So basically people are quoting things they say are fact, from things they read months ago that were just rumors. Do you see where I'm going with this? Nobody knows how much Jon's dad but his immediate family, the rest was just GARBAGE LIES AND RUMORS......

So lets sum all this up..............
1. People on hates sites say they dislike Jon & Kate because they claimed poverty back in the day when they really had money to pay for a nurse but didn't. Because Kate said it was "societies responsibility" to pay for the tups nurse.

ANSWER: Kate worded wrong what some tool tried to use to smear her. If I was her, I would just say "listen I want to keep my nurse, my kids love and need her. I hope to get an extension." We will never know if they had money or not but its not the point, trying to get insurance to cover it is always A GOOD IDEA.

2. They were hiding money they had and crying poverty.

ANSWER: Nobody owes anybody an explanation on their finances. If I was Kate I would reach out and take any generosity I could too. I feel that they weren't left with much, and were scared about raising 8 kids. I would take every stinkin thing given to me, and like Kate, not feel bad about doing so. Unfortunately, those that will never know the truth will use this an an excuse to bash this family. They are smart to use whatever TCL will give them free and save their money. Does it offend you BECAUSE they get so much free that you and I don't? Bobbi of course, could some cred for one phone call she turned into a hot story, and GWOP has people that just don't know better....And were back to square one!

Jon & Kate Gosselin House For Sale, Celebritycafe Re-cap Watch Full Episodes on Fancast.com

Hello Gosselin fans! Busy busy time! We have a new president now that seems to be giving us re-newed hope for economic stability and a brighter future. For those like Jon & Kate that have a bit of money, now's a great time for house hunting, and they're practically giving away condos & time-shares (lol). So for those on the sellers end, you gotta come up with a good hook in order to sell yours fast & for a good price. Lucky this family has the hook.

The Gosselins House On The Market

For the record people, they are not selling this house for a ridiculous amount of money. These are what comparable houses are going for with the addition of a little "padding" based on the celebrity quotient of who lived there. So the GWOP haters are having a field day, thinking that they're asking alot when they're not. The house was properly appraised and the value is accurate considering the possible additions (washer/dryer, extensions, a/c etc.)
You can see the house HERE. And again for the record, I feel the reason why the front of the house isn't shown is BECAUSE of the fact they want this house to sell on its own, and not because of its famous uhh front.

Another "All You Wanted To Know" Re-cap

This one is courtesy of Celebritycafe.com. You can read it HERE. They definitely got into alot of what I forgot to talk about!

"What’s one thing that makes it easy and hard to deal with each child? Cara is easygoing, but she holds her emotions then explodes. Mady never holds in her emotions, but has a big heart. Alexis is smart but sneaky. Hannah is a helper, but has an attitude sometimes. Aaden is cute, but wants to be a baby. Collin is caring, but he is stubborn. Leah is nice, but is secretly the mastermind. Joel sometimes whines, but is a good kid overall. Frank, the camera operator, likes Joel because he’s “out there.” Alex, the sound guy, is biased towards Alexis because she learned his name first."

I find it so funny that I got this e-mail today from a reader that mentioned how Serena posted on her open discussion like 10 times. Shes really trying to hustle to get the snark in. Someone there was so desperate they were saying how horrible Jon & Kate are for not knowing if their kids are right or left handed. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? For the record, the recap above told us that 6 are right-handed, and two are still deciding. Whoe's the dummy now?????

Fancast.com for full Episodes of Jon & Kate Plus 8

I have received so many emails. I had to remind those the didn't read my November 12th blog that you can see the full episodes of all your favorite TV shows as well as clips on Fancast.com. I don't know if they have the most updated list. but you can also look on You Tube as well.

Was It all You Wanted To Know???? Eight Little Faces Pre-Order

Hello Gosselin fans! I gotta admit, I was a bit mad that my video submission was not the one chosen to be on the show. I made sure I picked a happy general question regarding nap times and it was replaced by generic questions that the haters over at GWOP were going to rip to shreds. Ohh and for the record their excuses are always "I gave in and watched" yeah right, always having to make excuses for watching and being a closet fan do we? So was this episode any better than the first "all we needed to know?" Well kinda, yeah.

Though the highlight for me and everyone else was the interviews with the crew. We all thought that they were super cute and sweet. But were you surprised that the editor was woman? I thought that after making Kate appear to be a shrew sometimes its gotta be a man doing that! (lol) Also to the trolls, I would like to know what is so wrong about the kids getting jobs and learning how to be responsible with their money, & let them go out and earn for themselves? We all know that this family is trust fund city, but why shouldn't they share a car or two?? And people, lets just clarify what the crew was talking about when they sometimes "let themselves in". They try to see if the garage door is open and they set up for the morning there. They do NOT try to sneak into the families house while they sleep. GEEZE to you read how some people try to twist things?? It was also nice when Kate re-mentioned buying sale items and coupons- Its truly how the people I know ~stay~ rich. Kate really did grow up in a frugal family it DOES stand to reason that old habits of saving dies hard.

Also as people in general we have a tendency to want to know everything about people we see on TV shows. An example: how many blogs go on and on about how Kate would never let them play sports or socialize with other kids, yet they clearly said that the kids do on both accounts? Jon and his 10 year long interview a few days ago pretty much satisfied everything else most of us were dying to know. But for the millions out there that DON'T get on the computer, do you think that this episode answered of the questions they may have been wondering? No mentions of dogs, big new houses, (though apparently shown while I was dozing), Jodi & Beth, John Mom & brother etc. Do you feel that this is something that we should just wait for in the upcoming episodes? Cause I have a feeling most of it is going to come this year. Now the thing about it is that there is a massive call to give this family & primarily the kids their privacy, so how much do you think they have to share with us to keep us watching for the new year?? I smell a new poll coming! (lol)

Eight Little Faces..Will it be another Hit?

"Becoming the parents of eight children in less than four years has definitely presented both trials and blessings to Jon and Kate Gosselin. In this very personal close-up of their family life, Kate comments on the life lessons God has taught her. Featuring themes like trust, perseverance, joy, and encouragement, each two-page spread includes a photograph from the Gosselin family album, words from Kate, and topical Scripture verses. This book makes the perfect gift for any fan of the Gosselin’s television show Jon & Kate Plus 8, which is featured on TLC, as well as any mother struggling with the demands of small children." Pre-order HERE.

And finally, in a little new segment I like to call "It was posted, then its gone" I was sent this comment that was posted on GWOP. You know these all get deleted after 5 minutes, but its important to know that people DO try to scold the mean bullies over on that site. Just like I reprimand the trolls that come here! Lets take a look:

If you people were really concerned about the future of these children you would not post these ugly comments about their parents. How hurtful do you think these will be to the children when they or their friends discover these hateful comments when they get a little older. Look inside yourselves to figure out why you are really posting these messages

Mady Sweatshirt from Yard Sale Episode

When this episode originally aired everyone was asking about the cute picture on Mady's hoodie. What I thought was great about this cute line from the aptly titled GRUMPY GIRL is that this designer is from Honolulu Hawaii. The pants are already Sold Out, but the sweatshirt comes in 2 colors. I am ordering one for my daughter as we speak.....
