The producer of Jon & Kate Plus 8!!! She wants to talk with us about the possibility of doing a show about us and our journey!! I've never seen any of their shows since I don't watch TV, but I've asked a few people and they seem to think the company makes good shows. So - we might be on TLC or Discovery Channel!!

How cool! Just remember, there will be camera people with you all the time, and you likely won't get a say in what makes it to the tube. But still cool. I'd watch. :D

I'm imagining they would just do a week or so - we would NOT agree to having them around all the time. I can't even imagine how awful that would be. But I wouldn't mind them being there for a week or two and then leaving us alone!!

Thanks everyone!! I don't know anything really - she just sent me an email saying they are looking for a family like ours for a one-hour special. I had hoped to talk with her tonight, but she didn't answer her phone. I'll talk with her tomorrow.

I'm with Jenna on this one. Way cool, indeed. I am addicted to Jon and Kate Plus 8. I think I have a crush on Kate's moxy. My wife likes Jon.

Maybe next year we can watch your family?

Oh. And PS...Jon and Kate began as a 1-hour special too. Good luck!

My sister is addicted to that show - Congrats, Nancy - the producers seem to be really amazing. I call Jon and Kate Plus 8 "the screaming babies show." but it's filmed really well. I would SO watch it if you and your family are on !

Super news :)

Thanks! The more I hear about this show the more I want them to do one on us!! Since I never watch TV I had no idea what it was all about when I got hte email - and I don't want some flake doing a show about us!! But it does sound like a good operation and I think we would be proud to work with them!

Wow. That's really neat. I watch Jon & Kate and think it's a great show. Superbly edited and they really get the best out of the parents in the interview segments. I think one of the producers is named Jenn and she looks very nice. The family seems to get along with her and the rest of crew quite well.

All the best on this wonderful journey!
