Kate Gosselin

Kate Gosselin doesn\'t need Jon -- she can be both Mom and Dad to those kids.

With three year old sextuplets and seven year old twins, the Gosselins are hardly your typical American family. Jon and Kate are the ambitious parents of this adorable bunch, and they are battling all odds to make sure their brood has a normal, happy childhood. We follow them as they tackle potty training, music lessons, first grade, hiring a nanny, holiday gatherings, and many other seemingly ordinary life events. But one thing that's certain in the Gosselin family is that the ordinary is always "Extra"-ordinary.

After a break, Kate and her 8 adorable kids are back! A year older, the kids and Kate are experiencing new adventures and tackling daily challenges. Join the Gosselin family as they do activities around the home and travel to new and exciting places! There is all kinds of fun to be had with the family on Kate Plus 8.

The Gosselins grow another year older, which means that they can handle more fun than they have before! And it's a good thing because for the Gosselins, it's a monumental year. Not only do they plan for the biggest vacation of their lives, but they also begin making plans to relocate their family to another state and build a home that can finally accommodate their 8 growing kids. But first they must get through the sextuplets' fourth birthday, the twins' 8th birthday, second grade, and the beginning of pre-school for the sextuplets! Jon and Kate continue to amaze themselves and everyone else by accomplishing things no one ever thought possible with 2 sets of multiples.
