They are really like J & K. Remodeling the house- (at least they seem to be doing it themselves).
Jen is all pissed because the only green thing on their property a 30 ft tree needs to go so they can remodel. Jen went back to work to pay for the remodel (must have been before the show money started coming in).
While she's busy whining about missing the kids, let me just say she has some big assed teeth.
So she goes back to work. And the work at home piles up. She has a good support system- granny and a friend. Paid or not? You be the judge.
Honestly, granny was way more exciting than the Masches. Jen's incessant narration sucks. Annoying all the way.
Pink eye at the hostpital- hopefully she doesnt take it home. She calls her kids while dad is at home with the kids. Wow. Novel idea-- a dad that stays at HOME with the kids.
Jen singing sucked too. Too sweetisweet for me.
Jen doesnt think men were built to be at home for the babies. Nice to see her reinforce sexist roles..... the churches will be calling her soon.
She spent an awful lot of time on the phone. Will she get fired? Doesn't matter. She has a SHOW now...
I will say after she got home at 4am and got a couple hours sleep before the kids got up... that is HARD.
Again with the filming of private parts as Jen changes diapers. Couldn't they BLUR IT OUT???? Do we really need to see that?
Then they bitched about who does the most work-- didnt we see that in the first episode? Sounds like divorce is on the horizon.
Back to the tree.... they are getting a crane company to move the tree. I hate their homes... No grass. Just pebbles in the back yard. And a damn ugly fence. Seems like a battle ground, not a home.
The tree was moved and the kids got wet and dirty-- and again with the showing of the privates. Do you parents not realize what pervs are out there? And at any time they can send those pictures all over the net. Stupid parents.
Finally they are getting rid of part of the fence...... Of course through this whole thing, Brian's brother brings in his equipment- more plugs for family members.
After the commercial break, they bring in "extra help". Jen's friend is sharing their nanny with her (Sounds like the angel Beth was to Kate). Supposedly this is because they both work.
Now Jen is freed up to train for a marathon or two. (Spas are to Kate as Marathons are to Jen- remember that).
Jen internet shops for Halloween costumes. Whatever happened to just making them?
Did I say how mind numbing this show is? While I'm bored, Jen and BriBri don't see each other very much-- sound familiar?
Family friend Jacquiline (however you spell it ) is the new Carla. She's there to "help out". The carved pumpkins, turned out the light and cheered.
The next day, the Masches argued about carving more pumpkins..... is this really entertainment?
Then it is time for his weighin-- and he lost 8 lbs and his feel good talk with the doctor. He cheated- icecream dots, popcorn, hamburger and three beers. Didn't keep his documentation.
Back at the house...... Jen chastised him. (Yelling is to Kate as Chastising is to Jen)
So they scream about helping out. Someone named Sherry is helping her. "We can't function as a family if we're not OK." Words to live by.
Brian doesn't feel like a priority. "If we aren't good for each other and our relationship isn't healthy, we can't be good". Jen wants Bri to support her. (Sounds like marriage issues.)
So the costumes come. If they have to have Jen go back to work to pay for a house remodel, how can they spend money on costumes..... oh yeah, the TLC paycheck.
So they get ready to go-- Jamie (Jen's sis) helps the kids. they go trick or treating. Whoopie.
Then "Brian and I are together as a team taking on the same adventure". Well, well. Let's see how long that lasts. Famous last words. Cue cheesy song........ and end.
