Jon & Kate Plus 8 - Sextuplets Turn 3!

Sextuplets Turn 3!
The sextuplets have a birthday party.

~*~

It's a week before the kids' birthday and everyone's getting ready for the big birthday party. It's going to be a carnival theme and Kate's getting everything all set up and organized. Since it's a carnival theme, there's a ton of stuff to get ready, so Jon and Uncle Kevin are going to be making a game stand. While they're working on those, Aunt Jodi, Carla, and Beth came over to the Gosselins to help making signs and posters. And the signs that Beth did were absolutely amazing.

While outside, Collin was being stubborn and didn't want to move off the swingset outside. Kate said that when Collin gets super mad, he looks at Kate and calls her a boy. So cute. Apparently that's the worst insult he can think of.

It's finally the day of the party and Jon and Kate are busy putting up the streamers outside. They didn't have enough and after a brief bout of bickering, Jon was able to make it work. While Jon was finishing everything up, Kate went upstairs to get the kids changed for the days. Everyone seemed super excited and ready for the day.

(Side note: Collin wanted to play with a doll that Alexis had and Kate told him no because boys don't play with purple haired dolls...nice.)

Once the kids got outside, they headed right for a streamer and ripped it down. Of course, everyone said they didn't do it. Which was super cute.

The finishing touches were put on and Mady didn't seem to happy. Kate had ordered a fun streamer with the kids pictures on it. She didn't seem to like the fact that they had some attention on them and it wasn't on her.

Just before the party started, Kate went into the laundry room to get the kids' party shirts and found that the stationary tub overflowed and the floor was soaking wet. And this was the room everyone was going to be walking through this room to use the bathroom. So what did Kate do? She just freaked out and left Jon and Carla to take care of it. How nice.

It's finally party time!! The kids seemed to have a blast! There were clowns, pony rides, tons of games, and lots of candy and food. Mady didn't seem to happy when the line for pony rides got out of control. As per usual, Kate didn't deal with it and sent her to see Jon. I love how she takes control of her children.

We got to see Jon's "Gammy" who is just adorable. She's 100% Korean, as is Jon's mom. Jon is 1/2 Korean because his dad is French and Welch. So the Gosselin kids are 1/4 Korean. So adorable. They all are.

Nana Janet came to the party and decided to take a pony ride. Kate freaked out and complained that she couldn't get hurt because Kate needed her help. How terrible. The lady just wnated to take a ride. And Kate should be worried that she wouldn't get hurt because she's their friend. Oh.

At the end, the kids got to have cake time. This year, everyone sang happy birthday to each of the kids individually. They absolutely ate it up and loved having the attention on them. It's nice that they were able to have a moment to themselves.

At the end, Collin decided to share his water with Hannah and helped her drink out of his bottle. It was so cute and definitely worth mentioning.

SassySarah's Review: Despite Kate's complete bitchiness, the kids were cute and seemed to have a fun time. One thumb up.
