I didn't look at the sites, but you may have to delete the actual link, it is a for profit site, which is a nono.

What?
There are link to businesses, ebay auctions etc on the community board all the time

 

[sha_lyn]

Just checked the guidelines and I don't see anything about posting links to for profit sites unless it is the posters site/business

8. LINKS TO OTHER SITES: You are welcome to link to your website on our boards provided that a) you are not promoting a commercial service or for-profit venture, b) you don't post primarily to promote your site and c) that you place a prominent link back to the DIS on your website. Before posting a link to another site, we ask that you please first check to see if the same information is available on www.wdwinfo.com. We take great pride in our website. While we make the boards available for your enjoyment, our focus is Disney travel planning.

The links are for finding organic and vegetarian food, they have nothing to do with travel or WDW, so of course the information isn't available on www.wdwinfo.com which is the only other guideline that I see

loved the reptile and train museum trips-both kids seemed to have such a good time (i just envision if the family does move to the country every frog, turtle and other reptile having a 'little mother' saying 'i love you' to it ).

as for maddie- i don't know if she goes out of her way to perform for the cameras, but there's just no excuse to keep leaving what you're playing at to repeatly go back and hit or kick a younger sibling (and what is the deal with the lying about it? i mean she could see the camera filming her./kept glancing in the lense so it's not like it's going to just be her word against the younger sibs ). have to say that for me this goes beyond what i consider normal sibling rivalry and i'de be unlikely to leave her alone with those little ones (if she's doing the kicking, pushing and hitting when the adults and cameras are around-what is she doing when they're not and she's being sent downstairs with the little one's alone to 'watch' them ).

Last night I wanted to snatch Mady up myself. She might want to remember that there are 6 of them and only one of her. One of these days they are going to present a united front and she's a goner.

I loved Alexis and her "aldergators." She is too sweet. Collin and the trains was cute too.

 

[Camster0307]

Oh the two of them were so cute last night! It's amazing to me that a little girls could be so in love with reptiles.

And Colin - kissing everybody goodbye so they wouldn't miss him!

 

[TanyaLovesPooh]

I loved watching Alexis and Collin, they were both so cute. We really enjoyed just being about to hear them both talk so much, I mean it was so precious. How come Kate hasn't being going on the boys days out? I am sure she has a good reason and I just missed it.

Mady was being beyond awful.

 

[Yzerbear19]

Last night's episode was so cute. Alexis and Collin are both so cute. I think this one was probably the best episode of all the outings ones. I loved how Collin went and gave them all hugs and kisses before he left. So cute. And Alexis and her aldergator is always so cute.

I'm not going to go round and round, I just know on other boards, like the budget board, it isn't allowed. It doesn't matter if it has to do with Disney or travel. Sometimes links just fly under the radar. I'm not going to make a stink about it.

Kate wants Jon and the boys to have some male bonding time.

 

[KATHINOWA]

In one of the episodes Kate said that she and Jon go with the girls because she doesn't like to drive.

 

[bebelle]

A-DOR-ABLE!!! Last night's show was soooo sweet with the exception of Mady. Kate did say that they are getting her help. Kate and Jon are great parents. I am sure they will do whatever it takes to help her work through her issues.

I will say I love the new shows but I am tired of watching the same reruns.

 

[LoveBWVVBR]

Kate said that she wasn't going on the boys' outings because 1) they couldn't get a babysitter for every single outing and 2) it gave Jon and each boy some "male bonding" time.

I love this show! I am glad that they are getting Mady some help for her issues. I don't think that these issues were caused by having 6 younger siblings at once. I think that she was born with issues from the way that they have described her.

 

[purplegirl247]

I'm so glad I found this thread! Love the Jon and Kate! Liking Kate is an acquired taste, I think. It took me a few episodes to really get to "know" her. I just love the way she and Jon interact during their interviews. You can tell they really love each other.

I've loved the past several episodes where they take each 'tuplet out individually. Like they said, it's a really great chance to get to know their personalities. Plus, it's hilarious to see the kids get interviewed on their own. They say the darndest things, you know.

I don't understand why they never really show Kate disciplining Maddy. In the recent episode where Maddy was kicking/hitting the little kids, Kate said that she made Maddy call and apologize to Aunt Jodi, and that she got in trouble for that incident, but usually Kate just sort of shrugs it off. Which is weird because all the other kids are SO well behaved; I love that they just say "go to the corner!" and they immediately sit down in their little area (well, and cry, but at least they do it!).

Hope the show is on for a long time!

 

[mommytobug]

I did not hear her say that about Maddy. I am so glad. I work in mental health and I agree there is more to it. I am sure she will grow up to be a healthy normal adult if her issues are dealt with now. LOVE this show!!

 

[Poohnatic]

It was so cool to see Collin's day at one of my family's favorite places. That museum is great for train fans. It is HUGE, with I think 10 tracks inside with all sorts of trains.

Alexis and those "Aldergators" was gosh darn cute, too.

My DH and I like to talk back to the TV because we think Kate needs to lighten up, but we both agree that if we had eight kids, we'd be that neurotic, too. My mom had 8 over the course of 19 years and had built in babysitters for us younger ones!

I loved how they showed the Viewer FAQ and Kate said "We're not answering that!" and I knew what the question must have been. Then we joked at home that the Duggars probably have more time for that then Jon and Kate.

Marathon is on tonite; one of the shows will the one where they go to DisneyWorld - for any of you who still haven't seen that one.

Thanks for the heads up. We just love that show. My kids will be thrilled to know it's on tonight.

 

[suzimar57]

my favorite part of the disneyworld trip is when all the children are given ice cream and it starts to melt - watch kate's reaction.....

(you would think she'd have brought extra clothing and Wet Ones!)

 

[Camster0307]

Thanks for the heads up. We just love that show. My kids will be thrilled to know it's on tonight.

You're welcome. It starts at 7pm (EST); runs until 11pm and then starts over again. My girls and I don't mind watching the reruns over and over again!

We've been waiting for this one! Thank you!
My girls love to watch this show too!
