Jon & Kate Plus 8

Kate and Jon want to make sure their eight grow up with traditions, and fall is prime time for family ritual. They take the kids to a local orchard for pumpkin and apple picking and end the day with romping through a corn maze.

Jon and Kate take their kids back to Hershey Medical Center for the NICU reunion. Then, for the twins' 6th birthday, Jon and Kate surprise Mady and Cara with a special trip to the American Girl store in NYC.

When a church in California asks the Gosselins to speak to their congregation, Jon and Kate jump at the chance to get out of Pennsylvania. The logistics of a cross country trip, from drafting a will to packing up all eight kids, proves challenging.

Grocery shopping for a small army is not easy when you're on a tight budget. Thrifty Kate has now mastered this task, and shares how she does it. Then, Jon and Kate navigate through a crowded toy store with eight unhappy kids.

With the help of his brother-in-law, Jon spends an entire Saturday installing extensive shelving in the family's garage. Then, Kate uses her outstanding organization skills to instruct Jon on where everything should go.

Having reached her limit, Kate decides it might be time to get some cleaning assistance. Will Kate be able to find someone to meet her high cleanliness standards?

Potty training is a challenge with just one child, so when it's time to train all three sextuplet girls, Kate is more than apprehensive. With the exception of a few comical slip ups, the girls seem up for this challenge -- even surviving a road trip.

Jon and Kate rarely get time to themselves but Jon's big 3-0 is looming, and Kate is determined that it will be something special. She is planning a surprise dinner where she will announce his fabulous gift -- a trip to the Florida Keys!
