did anyone watch the Jones quints show?

It was on Discovery Health last week and I think TLC is playing it next week.

I have to say, I really enjoyed the show.  They seem like genuinely nice people (so far as one can tell from TV and reading their blog!) and the babies are ridiculously cute.  I'm hoping it gets picked up, but I'm also hoping they manage to avoid turning out to be the next Gosselin trainwreck.

And after watching, my 2u2 seems like NOTHING.  I have no idea how I'd handle that many babies, troops of volunteers or no- yikes. 

Anyone else catch it?  Did you like it?

Darn it!! I meant to watch it. I will have to watch it on TLC.

I read their blog but I forgot to watch the show. I'll watch it when it comes on TLC. They do seem like nice people and I also hope they don't turn out like the Gosslins.

Caroline was in the NICU right next to the last of the quints to go home and she (at 7lbs 12oz) was bigger than the Jones quint (at 2.5 months). It's so neat to see them so grown up now.

I watched.  It was surreal (I've mentioned before that Casey and I cheered together in HS).  I'm glad to hear that it was well received by people who don't know them, since it's hard for me to have an objective opinion.  My non-objective opinion is that it would be impossible for them to turn out like the Gosselins.

I cannot imagine having your expenses grow by 60K in one year.  I about had a panic attack just trying to wrap my head around that.

Angie--it'll be replayed on TLC the 16th and 17th.

Awesome! Thanks for letting me know. :-)

They do seem great.  I am leery of television in the lives of kids, though.

That's pretty cool, Steph! I have the show set to record, but I didn't know it was about the Jones quints, I just like shows about multiples. I also like the shows about little people and 19 Kids and Counting, I'm weird like that, lol!
