Also, I was upset that they didn't let the boys eat their cupcakes. Normally I am all in favor of rules like "don't eat your dinner, don't get your dessert" but come on! It was for their birthday...relax the rule just this once!

While I do really enjoy the show, I am starting to wonder about adverse effects on the kids growing up. Kids are mean, but Moms are MUCH worse and kids hear the comments that other Moms make. I hope they can have a somewhat normal childhood.

You know, I admire Kate for surviving two sets of multiples, but I can't help but think she "parents" the way she does just because "she can". The big 'ol ego gets in the way. She mentioned in a previous episode that she was very over disciplined as a child (while Jon was very under disciplined), and I find it funny that she's doing the same with her kids.
I can't wait to see the kids grow up. She'll have a ball dealing with discipline then!
