"Who me......?"
At A loss for Words - NOT!

I don't exactly know why... but I love this TV show. It's the one on TLC where they have 8 children. It seems like a chaotic mess at times. It even seems like the Jon and Kate get on each other's nerves but in the end the sigh of relief and a shared memory of their children growing each day. I know it's a TV show though, as much as they share with the audience... it's applaudable. I love the way they are somewhat organized and flexible in resolving day to day issues.

Anyone else out there dare to have 8 children?

Goodness, I've got 3 with an ex wife turning into a 16 year old. Not sure if I can handle much more.

I can handle the 10 year olds in Sunday School Wink... what's a couple more at my house?

It makes the silence more golden.

I can't imagine taking them out to the movies or to an amusement park. It would make a very long day making sure everyone has enough love and attention.

I like this show too, but I can't watch too many episodes in a row because of the crying and whining. The hardest part for me would be keeping up with so many at one time. I do not have her energy or her organizational skills.

I absolutely love that show. My friends make fun of me b/c I watch it and they say it's what my house will look like one day if I have my waySmiler. They actually act like a real family even though they're on T.V.. I ust can't get enough of it. Another one of my favorites is "Little People Big World".

I kinda thought the same at times... though, they have 8 kiddos. I guess you do what you have to do, and you try to do your best Smiler

when that happens, it reminds me of daycare. I think they even have one of those tables daycare center's use for feeding time.
