So was everyone else’s weekend filled with as many hot dogs as mine was?
But before we talk DOGS of the etible nature, lets talk about Jon & Kate Plus 8…
Am I the only one here who is TEAM JON?
I am in no way justifying him cheating! NO WAY- NO EXCUSE. HOWEVER, the end of last season you could see he was done with the show… and she was clearly not. I just think… with all those kids lives that are being affected by this… Kate could have maybe put the fame on the shelf for a bit to work on her marriage.
She is clearly all about the “jon and kate” cash cow.
Jon quit his job to stay home with the kids while she did her touring, and while I understand that Kate initially quit her job nursing to be with the kids, I don’t think it is quite the same thing. Kate did not quit her job to allow Jon to use their family for his own fame. I mean… she’s famous for having 8 kids! No other reason… and yet, she’s abandoning that exact thing!… and what pissed me off MORE??? I could see the producers angeling the show for the “poor single Kate+8″ spin off! HELLO!!!?!? TLC- you are a family channel… have you no morals? CANCEL THE SHOW! I mean I loved it too…but this family is becoming a train wreck because of the fame and there are SO many kids involved.
Anyway… Back to the over abundance of HOT DOGS.
Yesterday we had an impromptu BBQ at our house with our neighbors. It started by his majesty getting a new trampoline… and just grew into an all out BBQ.
My neighbors brought over their left over desserts and we used up all the left over Burgers and hot dogs. As a side note: let me just say this-I love hot dogs… but have you ever seen the fat content in an Average dog? Seriously? 14 grams?? in one dog?!? I recently noticed this when doing a review and almost had heart failure…. taste delish… but at what cost? … so here I am telling you that I HIGHLY recommend skipping the normal dogs, and going for the 98% Fat Free hot dogs… Oscar Mayer offers them & if you are a HUNGRY GIRL dieter… she recommends these too! … and I’m not kidding, you can hardly tell the difference… try it out at your next BBQ– I wont tell lol
The kids ran around and played on the tramploine and slip and slide and the adults sipped some Yago. One of my neighbors has a face painting business and even painted the kids faces! It was a lot of unplanned fun! :)
Of course his majesty ended the night in one of his ROYAL MELT DOWNS- OF COURSE… and his cute little painted batman mask dripped all down his face…. which only led to further melt down.
And I always swore I wouldnt have “THAT CHILD”… which is I swear why I got “That child”.
I dont know what it is. Could he use a mid day nap? Yea. Will he take it? No. .. and to be perfectly honest, sometimes he wakes up crankier from the nap.
Im not sure where he gets it from, although Im sure Super Nanny could easily point out it is from us somehow… but he has SUCH a little attitude on him. He is SO bossy with the other kids… and just out and out BRATTY…. and to be perfectly honest, its getting to be embarassing.
He is worst when we are in public and with other kids… and Im thinking of just cancelling all future playdates. I just imagine I look like that out of control mom that I always feared. I try time outs… he could sit there for 2 hours… and SCREAM and CRY and carry on… and at the end… still not be able to tell you WHY he is there– even though I told him numerous times. And the “But But But’s ” …. The child ALWAYS has a way to justify his out burst… and he does not want to listen to reasoning.
He really is not a bad kid. I mean he’s always been SO good… but the past 6 months has been SO rough… and looks to only be getting worse. Have you ever had that kid? How did you handle it?… Does it get better?
