40 minutes into the OCC show .. a particularly lovely exchange between Kate and Jon. ouch... followed about 15 minutes later by a passive aggressive jab from Jon ..

and Kate must not have all her laundry help anymore. Carla still folds clothes (per her blog) but Jon had to drop the kids clothes off at the dry cleaners to be ironed.

yes. I said kids clothes ironed by the dry cleaner.

In that new US mag article, what do they mean when they call Deanna a "soggy noodle"?

On American Chopper tonight Kate had to totally make it about her. They pull up with the amazing chopper for Jon and the scooter for Kate and of course Kate had to be the center of attention!
It always, always has to be about Kate--how she hasn't had a chance to pamper herself lately, look at me, look at me....poor Kate!

I nearly laughed out loud when that guy said something about having 8 kids and Kate not being able to get out much. Obviously, he's unaware of how much Kate had been away from home right before they filmed that episode.

In the episode description, they make it sound like Jon commissioned the making of the bike. On Larry King this week, one of the OCC guys said Discovery/TLC came to them and told them to make a bike for Jon.

Hmmm I wonder who really did pay for it:

“The bike we built for him is really one of the nicest ones we’ve ever made,” Paul said, adding that it is valued at an eye-popping $125,000".

And I wish they would both WEAR HELMETS when riding! Maybe just me, but I guess I've seen too many head injuries.

Poor Kate!! I'm glad she got to the spa for a pedicure. She probably hasn't had one for a week. Lot of "read between the lines comments" by Jon on the show. Obviously they are no closer together than the birthday episode. The bike was probably to give Jon an incentive so he finishes out taping the show. Its funny that Kate had the same outfit on even though they portrayed it happening over a couple days. I half expected to see her in another bikini.

I thought Jon seemed more relaxed in the episode, as did Kate. And they were both laughing about the situation. Jon referncing that he only has female friends, and when Kate was at the spa with Mikey he asked for a copy of US Weekly.

As I have stated before I am routing for team Kate so to speak. Last night on American chopper I was angry to see Jon making is little passive aggressive comments, as a previous poster called it, about Kate. I told my husband if he ever called me the black widow in public I would kill him. I also noticed that for as much as Jon likes pretend he is a great father he sure likes to remind people what a burden they are! His whiny poor me attitude drives me crazy! "I had eight kids in my twenties" . Well you wouldn't be able to have that new fancy chopper, fancy house, new car , and a be stay at home dad if you didn't have all those kids! I know the same could be said about Kate, she just doesn't seem to complain about it. The one bright spot was Paul Sr. gave Jon crap; that was the highlight of the show for meI hope Kate does kick Jon to the curb; she could do much better!

Did anyone see the show on WE Raising Sextuplets?

Wow it was nice to see someone so relaxed with her kids. She actually let them play and get messy and wasn't freaking out.

I think I'll be watching them from now on - no Kate and Jon drama. Surprisingly they both work (different schedules) and have a minimum of help. She's actually doing her own laundry!

Sorry, but I couldn't keep quiet.
We are huge OCC fans.
Last nites show on the OCC was pretty much scripted. They just didn't drive up, their truck/trailer was in the background when they drove in and Jon and Kate were sitting in chairs. Anyway, that is not what I wanted to comment about.

Usually the OCC guys wear helmets when they ride-most times. But last nite was unreal.

Paul Sr. and Paul Jr. and Jon decided to take a ride and Paul Sr. gave Kate a ride. They laid a towel down on the fender and Sr. took pegs off another bike and put them on his bike for Kates feet. Kate kept yelling how she would slip off and land on her butt. But she agreed to this. Me and my dh couldn't believe it. She wore no helmet, she did go get pants on after Sr. told her she could ride with a skirt and she still kept high heeled shoes on. If Sr. would have hit a bump, she would of been catapuled off the back of that bike. The only way she could hold on was by holding onto Paul Sr. I thought they would just go down the driveway and back, but they went out onto the road. My dh said right away, "I hope they get busted" she is riding illegally."

wow, and my husband would kill me if I talked to him in public like Kate does to Jon.. The same things you accuse Jon of like the poor me attitude, Kate does just as well. We have to watch our money, I am so tired, I cook and clean. What a line of bull this lady puts out. I just can't believe that some people don't see that.

As far as I am concerned they BOTH deserve each other. And as far as Kate doing much better, I can't think of one man that I know that would put up with her crap, and I have asked because most of my friends watch the show and the men can't stand her.

I think everyone is nuts if they don't wear helmets. That said, in PA, I don't believe that is the law. When the OCC are in NY, they have to wear helmets (and they do) but not in PA. I've seen the OCC people, when they have delivered before, to other areas not wear helmets.
What do you mean that Kate would be busted, she is riding illegally..do you mean for not wearing a helmet?

Sorry, but I couldn't keep quiet.

None of my friends watcxh the show, but if they did, I'm pretty sure they would agree with the first sentence..they both deserve each other. I do think Kate has been doing better, Jon worse, but neither of them are very nice to each other. BUt then, they never have been, and we all watched it from the begining. The only diffence is, Jon is now louder when he makes his remarks.

Glad I'm not the only one. What about when she said she had been burning the candle at both ends and hadn't had a chance to go to the spa and get a pedicure!!?? I wounder how she keeps her tan?

 

[1stluvispooh]

What I couldn't stand when the OCC guys were at the Gosselins was that Kate was being overly dramatic about her scooter ( OMG I just realise why that bugs me so much! It's just like my mom!! Thanks for being my therapist ) Anyway, Jon was looking at his bike quitely and Kate never asked him what he thought of it. Did he like it? Was he happy? Jon had to say he Kate did you see I had them put the kids name on the fender. Kate just said OH ya. I don't know I think I would have been more excited for my spouse. But then again. I want my husband to be happy.
