Kate Gosselin's New Parentables Blog, Twitter Surpise, & New Episodes Coming Up!

Hello Gosselin fans! What I love about Kate Gosselin is always when the haters swear up and down Kate is over, she comes back with a vengeance. First off, they said she was over when her ratings fell below a million. So now not only are new episodes coming, but her past "Kate Takes NY" had over 1.2 million viewers...Ohh whats that? Kate Gosselin is over because she was "thrown out" of writing a Parentables blog for TLC? uhhh yeah, they were WRONG again, because she just got a new post up. So I see these sites where trolls laugh that fan sites have low comments or how Kate Gosselin is over. But I never failed to notice the important things. Like it's the same 5 people on those blogs coming in with different names. Or that once they realized how wrong they were they never bring up their comments again. I used to think those other sites were horrible and now I just see them as a sad example of sad people who need to move on attacking a celebrity for all that they have and concentrate on their own lives. It's been 3 years now that they have spewed the same tired statements. It's just different fake names, all from the same person. I'm so happy to say that my site continues to grow in a positive direction, and as always is 100% sock free UNLIKETHEMTHANKYOUVERYMUCH. xoxo BM

Kate Gosselin takes Twitter Fan Questions Today For An Upcoming Episode

Who lately has been more busy than Kate Gosselin? Multiple media appearances and it appears & working this weekend. Kate discussed online a Twitter session from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. today where she was collecting Twitter questions for a future episode. Did you ask her one? Did she respond? We know Kate is on an media push to increase the ratings for “Kate Plus 8.” The ratings were well over a million last week. Hopefully, the trend will continue, what do you think are other ways that Kate can get out there and drum up new viewership? Are you excited about the new episodes coming up?

Is Kate Gosselin Obligated To Help Tornado Victims? Or..Are Haters Delusional?

@ @sarahjoyce1992 Just@pm.Has top&bottom&doesn't=we argue.I tell her Sunday she WILL care@str teeth&I'm not paying4round2 if doesn't wear ret


People that dislike Kate will literally scour her Tweets now daily to find something to attack her on. First it's a general comment Kate made about not paying for another set of braces for Mady "How dare she tan if her child will need new braces!!" And now recently a comment about Kate feeling bad that she cannot personally help every natural disaster including the recent devastating tornadoes in MO. Now being a parent myself I agree with Kate 100% on the braces issues. If Mady isn't taking care of them then I would not go out and fund another and would be just as frustrated about it. But here we have nasty mentally unstable idiots that are taking her comments so literal and trying to use them against her to attack her credibility.

@Kateplusmy8 have you thought about helping the victims of this years tornadoes
1 hour ago 

@Kateplusmy8Kate Gosselin@huntsvillewrite Omg wld luv2help!don't hav resources2go(altho wishIcould&would)&don't hav$ 2helpall disas(wish I could&wld) prayr I can do

Here is one of those statements where I cringe because I know how these people not only live on hate blogs but follow her twitter day and night. So you know a statement like this will be completely taken out of context. While it's always wonderful to donate to those in need, I think Kate was talking about not being able to do more for the victims of the tornadoes. Now where does it say that because she is who she is she is morally and financially obligated to help anyone. While even if she did, how is it any one's business anyway? See these are the things that piss me off about those people? Why exactly aren't YOU helping the tornado victims? Why are you more than happy to attack Kate over it, when she has done whatever charitable contributions she feels she can do in the past but you STILL attacked her for it? FYI I used my text and donated. Stop worrying about what shes doing and start doing something yourselves. Obsessing over attacking Kate Gosselin is not healthy..lol xoxo


New Episodes Coming Up! What Would You Like To See?

I'm super excited that we have new Kate Plus 8 episodes coming up. What would you like to see? Do you think the ratings will stay strong? I would love to hear what you think.

64 comments:

  1. I'd love to see special day episodes with the kids now that they are older, and a Disney Cruise Episode. That one is a little hard for me because I am not liking Disney/ABC too well these days for their genre slaughtering ways. I'd also love to see them meet another set of sextuplets.

    ReplyDelete
  2. Tashaprok I was thinking the same thing. The Duggars did it on one of their shows once. I would love the kids to hang out with another set of sextuplets. That would have been a great idea for Kate!

    I would love to see people being respectful on Twitter and not acting like vile animals. These are obviously grown women with way to much time on their hands. Do you think that all celebrities if they have money should be obligated to help others? I mean its nice and a good thing to do. But even when Kate shows on TV that she's helping those in need, because it's on camera it's not valid. And if she does things privately and people aren't are, then she's cheap. Can she win either way? Sadly no.

  3. BM - Not been around much, learning new things doesn't come as easily to an older mind, that's for sure, but getting there.

    Although I was at first concerned when Kate said she was going to start tweeting as I was amply aware how the haters would come on with a vengence, as I think the fact that Kate is now twittering is becoming more widely known, I don't see the haters having the impact they'd hoped for. Quite the opposite, what I see is happening is it is backfiring on them. Their constant tweeting hate to Kate isn't gaining them supporters for their (fake) cause or enlightening anyone to the 'evils' of Kate, it's just showing what nut jobs they are.

  4. Good morning all. Nice post Baby Mama.

    Ziggy, I agree. The stalk of the zombies (khaterz) annoys some fans. For most, they just block the khaterz (as has Kate) and they don't appear in your Twitstream (what you actively see.)

    Yes, you can go to Kate's "page" and see everything that it said, because Twitter is quirky that way. Just as folks can go to anybody's "page" and see every comment that's made to them.

    That's how Twitter worked 2 years ago and some people are just behind, never understood how it works, or just never took the time to read the "Twitter for beginners/newbies" info.

    For fans, my advice is IGNORE THEIR JUNK!!! If I have somebody blocked, I do not SEE what they post. I only SEE IT if some misguided person responds to them and clicks REPLY without deleting the JUNKY person. Then I'm forced to see it.

    My response: I just log off Twitter for a bit until the haterz and the misguided fans have stopped including me in their back and forth responses. It may be days before I respond to fans even about other things because I do not want to get caught up in the haterz garbage in the back and forth responses.

    IMO, and purely my opinion, that back and forth exchange accomplishes nothing but allowing the haterz to gain attention again.

    Yes, they are obnoxious. Yes, they are foul and vile. Yes, they attack anybody who remotely says anything nice to Kate. IGNORE them, and continue to go on your way saying the nice things you want. Send 10 nice things. Just don't respond, include, mention, the haterz. That is exactly what they want.

    Put it another way... They are insane. You are sane. Why would you try to dialog with somebody who is insane? What would you hope to gain?

    Kate has politely mentioned, time and time and time again that she has them blocked and doesn't see them. If you "reply" and mention them, that is exactly what they want because she does have to see it then.

    If you were just becoming old enough to drive a car, would you rush out, buy one, hop behind the wheel and expect to drive successfully in 65 mph traffic on a busy interstate with no experience? Twitter is much the same; learn the rules of the road.

    Okay... rant over on my part. If you don't understand Twitter, read the Twitter help.

  5. LOL Linda...that issue never seems to go away. Seems some have become extremely upset over teens getting involved with haters.

    They wanted Kate to follow them and privately converse with them. No way Kate could do that with every teen that comes on.

    I think even the teens know they have a responsibility to NOT engage the hateful ones...because it can really get ugly fast.

    I'm liking Kate on twitter. When she is chatty...she is alot of fun for sure. TLC really seems to be making Kate work the media herself. She's had to do a slew of radio interviews again...don't know when they will air.

    Kate once pretty much ignored the public...most out of necessity...but now she realizes she needs her fans & I think she sees that there are alot of really nice caring folks who are in her corner.

    I knew the haters would take her comment about tornado relief and twist it. For heavens sake...Kate can't fund every disaster...& that is what she was stating. What she may privately do for local charities or food banks is her business. She does not have to account to us for how she spends her money.

    Taking care of her children , their future and unforseen needs has to be her first priority.

    ReplyDelete
  6. FiredUp - Absolutely! There is no way any mortal could possibly fund with big $$ all of the disasters that have happened in just the last few months.

    Even celebs who fund a lot of things (Pitt and Jolie, for example) acknowledge that the best they can do is help the ones the can.

    I thought Kate's response to the person who talked about her earning $250k per episode was priceless! Apparently the rag sheets had the $$ amounts wrong.

    I think Kate, at one time, ignored the public because it seemed "unreal" to her that people who don't know her could have such strong feelings. Also, just doing interviews, etc. over time has made her much more comfortable.

    For some, being in front of cameras and doing interviews comes almost "naturally." For others, it's a lifelong struggle. For example, Paris Hilton's recent interview on the Today show. Poor Paris rocked back and forth from foot to foot, had no idea what to do with her arms and hands and looked, just plain miserable. Of course, they were outdoors and there were throngs of people behind the stanchions rather than an indoor set. Point is, she's been doing interviews a heck of a lot longer than Kate and she's still very obviously uncomfortable.

    Kate's witty responses are a lot of fun. It's that wry humor that made me a fan of hers in the first place. It's a shame that whenever she's on it becomes such a feeding frenzy but I guess that's to be expected.

    I'm not aware of a single other celeb that has any sort of semi-regular exchange with fans.She's not on often, but seems to try to give a response back to as many people as she can. I commend her for that.

  7. The one thing I wish people on Twitter would stop doing is retweeting what the haters say. They don't see that it validates and gives attention to what they said. I wish they would fly right by it or discuss it through direct message so the AKOs are not basking in the glory that they had something important to say. On the other hand I love the retweeting of positive things.
    I also think that now Kate is able to give more attention to her fans and tweet because the kids are older and into more of their own lives. She can turn her head without somebody getting into trouble like she couldn't do when they were younger. Kate has not adopted the Self proclaimed Parenting Experts's way of hovering over the kids' every move and constantly orchestrating their lives so they have no room to breathe. Then again, they are also tweeting and blogging so they aren't practicing what they preach either or they have no kids and know absolutely nothing about what they are talking about.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Correct me if I am wrong, but when Kate was helping at the food bank, wasn't she criticized for not helping out those in her local area instead? I don't think the tornado victims are in her area. So why is she being criticized now for saying she can't help everyone? What really bothers me is that no one knows how much she does or does not give to charity. If she announced her donations publicly, the haters would criticize her for making it public, but if she doesn't announce it, they assume she doesn't give anything. Not to mention the fact that she'd also then be criticized for giving away her kids' money. Is it just me, or is their "logic" enough to make one's head spin?

    ReplyDelete
  9. Shirley, you have the game they play to a T and it goes that way with anything Kate or Kate's fans do. They can take any neutral action and turn it into something bad. Kate picked the kids up at the bus from school turns into, Kate must not be bringing in the dough to afford a Nanny to pick her kids up. She's on the way out, and by the way, Joel wasn't smiling so that means he wishes that Jon had picked him up. He is upset to see his mom. Instead of Kate juggles her responsibilities in order to be free most days to pick the kids up from their bus stop. She knows they are tired after a long day. Kate went to the mailbox turns into A disappointed looking Kate wasn't accompanied by her bodyguard as she got her mail. No freebies for Kate today, must mean her day of fame is over. It's just the hater's game

  10. Good afternoon everyone! What are we thinking about the new logo? Linda made it for me. After the disaster of people non being able to get on my site and complaints about slow uploading, I'm trimming the site a bit. Linda I'm gonna start by pulling a few photos, are the videos slowing it down too? What do you guys think? should I stay with the new jazzy red or go back to blue?

    I really miss my purple template I had for 2 years but I can't find it anymore. Linda do you know if there is any way to get it back? I wanted a new look but honestly I'm so scared to pick a new template. Most require me to change the color of my words & I don't want to do that. Anyway, hoping these small changes bring you a faster loading blog!

    ReplyDelete
  11. I changed the background also. I may be REALLY in the doghouse, lol.

  12. Baby Mama is really under the weather and feeling super sick.
    ---
    I couldn't find that old purple one. Sorry.

    Since summer is HOT, and you are smoking hot, Baby Mama, and since red is my favorite color.... um, oh well, this is what happened.
    ---
    Don't panic. I'm pretty sure that I "can" change it back to the blue highway/roadway scene if everybody hates it.
    xoxoxoxo

    ReplyDelete
  13. While the change was a bit of a shocker because I came here before Twitter, I have to say I really like it. The contrast is good so there isn't difficulty seeing things and the colors are summer colors. It also doesn't look like anyone else's site. As with Kate and her brood, this site is maturing and just as we redecorate kids' rooms as we grow, its good to redecorate this site.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I think the "haters" will always find something to whine about. Glad Kate can ignore them. I don't twitter and right now I'm glad I don't! I think it's ok to not be a fan, but carrying it as far as some of the "haters" do isn't healthy.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Does everyone really like this? Yuck, this is the background for that hate site. I also hate the color.

    Please stand by while we figure this all out... Lol

    ReplyDelete
  16. Baby Mama - Ok... it's different now... GREEN!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Baby Mama, if you still hate it, I'll change it back to the "highway" thing. Not a problem. :)

    It's your blog, for goodness sake. You should have what you want, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  18. The old purple one is under the classic templates section. I had it on my WAH blog up to about a month ago, but it was green, not purple. Blogger has been going out all over the country again so it may not be accessible(read: blogger is screwy again)
    ....made my clients transfer from Blogger to WP interesting last night! LOL

    I love how much the AKOs have been exposing themselves. Brings a lot to light. And not in their favor.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Baby Mama i checked and the only purple/pink ones left is the Mrs.Moto is that the one you used to have?

    ReplyDelete
  20. CMo3 - That one has a hard time with certain browsers. Hmm... don't wanna trade one set of problems for another.

    You're right - Blogger is still a bit screwy but I could get this to load quickly with IE, Firefox, Chrome, and Opera. There is a purple one in the travel section but it's very plain.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I like the green with the grass motif at the top!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I've been up since 5 am ... fading fast here. Baby Mama, we'll do it any way you want 'cause it's your blog. I just might not be able to make changes until tomorrow when get back to computer. (Just too hard via iPad when I can't ck other browsers.)
    xoxoxo

    ReplyDelete
  23. Yeah the Moto template did have problems with browsers, I never did, but I heard from others that was a fluke...that is why I was asking. :) The green grass template seems to fairing the best so far browser wise. I also like the on I have on my recipes blog. seems to do well.

    Good luck sleep well every one.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I kinda like this new look. It's easy on the eyes and loads really quickly for me.

    As for the nonfans--oh well--they are what they are and are stuck in a rut of negativity, hate and criticism. I don't see them changing and so we'll have them around forever--crtical, judgemental and filled with negativity. They should judge themselves as harshly.

    ReplyDelete
  25. If you want my 2 cents......this did load much quicker for me...in firefox anyway. I have a tendency to switch back and forth between firefox and IE....lol

    I loved the parentables post Kate did, didn't you? And, I'm so glad it's Monday so we can see another episode of K+8!!!

    As for the AKO's....how sad are they!!! Do they have anything in their lives besides looking for things to pick at about Kate? I don't know about any of you, but although I'm a BIG Kate fan, I only have a limited amount of time to sit here at the computer and read and sometimes respond about Kate and the 8. I have a busy day, when I decide I need to take a break and sit down, often I do it at the computer and check out what's new at Ziggy's or here. Then, I get up and get busy again.

    Hope you're all having a GREAT day!!! *wavey*

  26. I like the green, easy to read, clean looking.

  27. Linda & BM,
    I like this and it loaded FAST FAST.Scrolling is smooth, as well.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Linda, I love you and your Hanna kill me. But I hate the green logo. It's too much, well green. I'm all for keeping the format. Everyone seems to agree it's slightly easier to load. I'm going to delete some more photos & random stuff tonight. But could you put the logo back to red as well as "Kates Take?"

    I'm glad you like where were going with this everyone. And just be patient with us while we work out the kinks. Ziggy gave us some needed inspiration to update the site a bit. Hey 4 times in 3 years isn't that bad right? Lol I feel updates are in order to make the site work better.

    We have an event tonight at the school so I may be late to Kate's live Tweeting. Who is excited for the 2 brand new episodes tonight? I know I am! Check this out, I'm also super excited for another show on HGTV tonight, called "My yard goes Disney!" Did anyone hear about it? Nice to know HGTV & TLC are getting back to some fun programming!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Sorry, the beginning of my previous comment wad your "gonna" kill me. The ipad always changes what i write! Ohh and Linda can we make the exit logo on the bottom red as well? Let's try it because it's just way too much green for me. if there's a problem text me. Xo

    ReplyDelete
  30. LOL....I saw the twitter comment about this. Yesm this is a bit Irish lookin! But hey, it did come up easy.

    Please nevah forsake putting on the latest videos and links to interviews. I depend on you and to be on top of stuff like that!

    Oh, don't you just love how Kate has been negating some of the stupid rumors that have floated for years. She canceled the idiot crib gate rumor...laugh about it and said who cares..I was just happy to come home and have cribs!

    Another rumor about her yellin at someone about taking her yougurt...she replied...this is a joke right...you are kidding me?

    Kate is starting to see what asinine dumb stuff is out there about her that has contributed all these years to people dislike of her. She's using twitter to her advantage to set matters straight!

    Love her on twitter. Such a great gal pal...just like all of you here!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I am glad to hear Kate is on twitter. I often thought that the reason Kate took a long time to respond to rumours was because many rumours were so ridiculous that she couldn't believe people would even think that way about her.

    She is putting the haters in their place. Sadly, they probably don't realize, they are the ones that are looking silly.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Baby Mama - Okay, ma'm, they are all back to RED!!! You get what you ask for, lol. The red and green are a bit Christmasy for me, but what the heck do I know, lol. What you want is the most important thing because it is your blog. :)
    -----
    FiredUp - There are so many complaints about the blog not loading every time there are certain videos, that perhaps the best thing to do is just put up the links to them (while they last.) That keeps the coding from being "stuck" here.

    However, that decision is, of course, Baby Mama's. I have nothing to do with content, layout, photos, vids, etc. other than occasionally helping her insert them like when she was sick last night. :)
    ----
    Okay, I'm stuck in scripting and production meetings and I have to go back in now.
    ---
    One parting funny comment ... I started to redo the blog with pink stripes, but I figured Baby Mama would shoot me for sure then. Lol, I try to make her life easier, but she sure hopped out of bed in a hurry last night to get off that background she didn't like. (I really didn't mean to do that.)

    ReplyDelete
  33. I Love it!!! (although you already knew I would! LOL) My only suggestion is to turn the main text to red to match instead of orange. JMO.

  34. I think the green on green is a bit much for me.

    ReplyDelete
  35. The red is nice too! I'm not hard to please.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I like the green on green. Very easy to read. The page loaded so fast and no delay when scrolling down the page.

    Can't wait for the new shows tonight. The previews look like they had so much fun.

    The haters should feel so stupid for ever believing all those dumb rumors. It is sad that they hate someone they don't know so much they latch on to anything so they can criticize her. Nothing but a bunch of nitpickers.

    ReplyDelete
  37. CMo3 - Unfortunately, we don't really get to choose text colors on this palette unless we recode each time a new post is done. (Unfortunately, I don't have time to do that.) The default is "red" until it is clicked on, or you mouse over it, then it does appear orange. So, text color "is what it is" 'cause although I luv Baby Mama, I just can't change it. (Heck, I wouldn't even do that for a "paying" customer, lol.)

    ReplyDelete
  38. I especially love how when Kate does occasionally respond to a snarky comment on Twitter, she responds politely and professionally, and does not stoop to their level of immaturity and hostility. Easy to see who has the most class.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Hey, Baby Mama - I could change the header to Purple, or pink, pastel blue or or?? We'll do it in whatever color you'd like. Just get well and feel better!!!

    My daughter is still up, screaming one of the tups is wearing her Gymboree dress. She was so excited to watch the birthday episode. What type of confidential agreement do you think those parents have to sign? Lol

  41. Linda, we did spend a day resting last week, first time in over a month, now we've been catching up on our life. Because of graduations, company that usually comes late June and July came mid May when lots is going on. Its also an older relative that is beginning to show senility issues and her son and daughter need to start getting more involved with her. It's their place, but its kind of scary with her baggies of pills that she doesn't know the name of and seems to invent dosing schedules and drinks alcohol while taking them.

  42. tashapork - That's sad about the relative. Sorry, my friend.

  43. Baby Mama - Ok... It's purple!! Enjoy. :)

  45. I'm the world's worst nightowl and, since I retired, I can indulge it. I've been tweeting at a late hour & occasionally (I block the AKOs but I will do reconnaissance) I'll see one of them trying to develop some deep psychological significance from that in a tweet that's posted a few minutes after mine. It never seems to occur to them that, if they're right about the significance of late-night tweeting, what does that say about THEM

    ReplyDelete
  46. tashapork: unfortunately, the medication issue is why a lot of families break down & finally go the assisted living/nursing home (depending on how much other care is needed). So many elderly people are on such a potent mix of meds that, if they can't be relied on to keep them straight, even with a pill minder, there needs to be someone giving only the dose(s) needed when they are needed & make sure the person swallows them. For many families, that isn't feasible to do on their own.

    Of course it's also a good idea to have a pharmacist review all the elderly person's medications to see if there is potential for adverse drug interactions & other medication problems.

  47. BabyMama & LindaOriginal-For what it's worth, lately, when I load the page, I get a message at the top that Shock Wave has crashed.

  48. LOVE the colors on this site, they are soo Kate.
    Thought the show last night was cute, Kate has been doing a beautiful job updating her landscaping. Makes me wish we could afford to deal with ours. Nice that Carly and Ashley helped her. I also love how she includes the kids in helping out. The treasure hunt was a lot of fun. I have used it during family parties that tend to have a lot of adults where the birthday person does the hunt to get their gifts. One time I gave my nephew $25, but put $5 in each envelope with a clue and hid them. He was 11 and LOVED it.
    I really got a kick out of how Kate included the little frog in the pool on her cake, it shows that she takes them seriously and doesn't just brush them off when they are into something she isn't.
    Peggy, you are right about the medication issue. A lot of people don't realize how serious it is and a lot of the services that provide in home help to elderly specifically won't do medication monitoring, even putting the pills in the little pill boxes unless they provide RN services which is costly.

  53. I'm behind on everything today. LOL...and I have only 2 to worry about! Kate the Great just continues to amaze me.

    Love the new episodes...really shows Kate's willingness to go the extra mile so to speak in making things fun and enjoyable for her children. How she keeps those 8 truly different little personalities all happy and occupied is an amazing feat!

    I'm behind on some news that she went to DC to have a filming with DC CupCakes...where is that news...I just saw a reference to it on twitter!

    Lordy, I can't keep up with Kate...and I saw where she said she was "goin on 3 hrs of sleep"! Yikes...you wouldn't want to be around me on 3 hrs of sleep...this gal has to have at least 6-8hrs!

    Hope all are well...we are in a drought warning sitaution. So hot and sooooo in need of rain!

    Katherine Denise...have not heard from you in a while. Check in young lady...was thinkin about you and hoping you are doin well with your situation.

    Shout out to Brazilian sweeties...Debora & Jacque! Love you...wish I could get the hang of that Portuguese language!

    BabyMama...what trouble are ya into? LOL You have been too quiet...you need to step up to the plate and take one for Kate again...give the haters some new material! LOL

  54. Helllooo everyone! I missed you all! So sorry to be MIA, between being sick, working on a few projects in the city & my kids big end of the year field trip to the Bronx Zoo, I've been swamped. We will be wrapping up school, so it's really now about finding the best camp in such notice that will take us. Last year I was home in the summer so of course I didn't have this big expense. So I'm a hustler right now making some cash!

    So onto Kate! Everyone was all excited about her cryptic Tweet about the kids filming a special episode. Leave it up to nasty Bonnie from Hollybaby to blow the secret that they are in DC for a special crossover DC Cupcakes episode. I'm super excited because I love cupcakes and I've always wanted to visit DC. What do you all think, would you like to see that? The kids are probably having a blast. I think I will discuss it in the next post!

  55. I wanted to also welcome anyone that's new and say hi to anyone I haven't see in a while. Hope you come and visit more!

    Love the new purple thanks to Linda. I'm the luckiest gal in the world to have such great internet friends. I made her change it a few times. If I have to look at my blog every day for a year like I did with the last one, I gotta love it right? What do you think? More soothing? New post coming soon, keep posting here till tonight when I get it up..xo

  58. Hello,
    I already asked once but please could someone upload the last two episodes of K+8? I can not watch it here and it's not online either.

    Thank you

  59. Does anyone know why the videos are being taken down on You-Tube? I can't access my favorite episode anymore..."Farm to Table" ! :(

  60. Hello everyone! Let me first say that it's great to see new commenters! I hope you stick around. I also know many people come to my site just to watch the episodes. And that's great too.

    Sadly TLC had cracked down a while back on a few of my readers who were the ones that posted the videos on You Tube for me to embed & share here. So sadly I didn't have access to them anymore without paying for them though a few shady, non-reputable sites. Which is why as of late they haven't been on here.

    As soon as I find a reputable place to upload them from you know I will get them here. I appreciate all the e-mails but I have already asked for embedding codes for episodes but have yet to receive any. So sadly until this is resolved I will not be able to post them here until told otherwise. :(

  61. Thank you all for your kind emails. We are still "heart weary" as a family, and just need time.

    TLC would be great if they posted all the videos themselves online, even if it were pay per view. But, they have chosen not to go that route.

    Please note: there are many "webisodes" at the TLC site that contain much of the videos in tiny clips from this season. (Australia, Kate's birthday, the kids' with Ashley, etc.) If you don't get the shows in your area, try the TLC site. Here's a link to one:

  63. Linda, we are all here to love and support you as always! I have a new post up. As you an see the baby was up all night so I figured I would work on the blog while we worked on our potty skills! ;)

    Fresh scent for our new paper will be the scent of fresh cotton sheets with some warm hot cocoa. Just like we are enjoying now! xo
