Have i ever mentioned how much i love my tivo (eric does xmas good). every night, i veg out watching tivo----fm oprah to all my hgtv shows-- all commercial free, baby.
one of my fav shows lately is Jon & Kate + 8. Funny, jon & kate even have a saying, 'it's great after 8'. 8PM that is, when the kids are in bed ((((-:
these parents are AMAZING. it's almost beyond belief how they manage---and not be half crazed and dead! they did do IVF, but def did not ask or plan for 8 kids (twins + sextuplets). and amazingly, they're still able to give their children a typical childhood. they do it all, going to pumpkin patches, xmas tree cutting, throwing humongous bday parties, etc. you can see how hard they strive, so the kids dont miss out and feel less special just because there's so many of them ---and they do it, for their kids, no excuses.
the last episode was of the sextuplets' 3rd carnival-themed bday party. they started a new tradition of singing happy bday to each baby---so they had to sing the song 6 times. seeing the reaction on each kid's face---it was a golden parent moment.
i think i'm gonna steal that tradition for the girls' bdays. jon & kate, you're great!
