I actually ventured to the TLC message board about this show and was scared sh*tless by some of the people on there. Seriously stalker-ish and WAY too critical. But I did learn that Jon's father passed away after the twins and before the 6-pack (and he was part of thier life). As for his mom, she is around but they are not close. Same goes for Kate's parents- they are alive but they are not part of her daily life-- they aren't a part of her brother's life either.
We did meet Gammy (Jon's Mom's Mom) on the 3rd birthday episode.
