I am fearful Zoey is going to get a trip to the emergency room in the near future. Maybe she is testing boundaries with everyone but I was kind of surprised to see her go to the corner of Will's bed with his book and no one could get her to return it. I recall as she climbed up onto the bed, Will was pulling on her and Bill made Will stop. There will be a time when Bill andJen are not right there to stop him from pulling on Zoey and or slapping her for taking his toys or books. These two kids probably still do not understand the concept of brother and sister. All they know from their experiences in an orphanage or foster home is that another kid is competition for food, affection, attention and possessions. Zoey seems to be pushing the boundaries of independence by climbing on the counter and moving to a spot where no one could easily reach her if she fell. She was sitting next to the mixer and touching the attachment in the bowl. I do not know if it was plugged in but she could really hurt herself. Its clear from ballet class that her balance is not great yet. One fall off that counter and she hits her head and they could have a very serious situation.

Seeing those kids on the counter made me a little nervous. Zoey was even kind of playing with the mixer. I thought oh gosh i hope she doesnt turn it on with her hand in there. I hope they can get those kids to not climb up there. Maybe it is because they saw Jen climb up there but still.....

Bill Klein really needs to stay away from fish. Every one of them he has touched in the past year died. Let the kids enjoy Maggie and Rocky which they seem to do.

I wish Jen had come up with a better gift for the girl with cancer. She gave her a stocking that looked like the ones she gave the other kids. The girl is BLIND so i guess a doll is ok but there were things in the stocking like coloring books and stickers. If she had done her homework, she could have gotten the girl a HAT especially since Jen and the girl chatted about how cool having hats were. Maybe Jen visited her another time and took her one. Thats what I hope anyway.

Really glad to see them teaching Will and Zoey about stuff like the moon and space exploration.

I read about Bill wanting to be on CA on either Jen's or The Little Couple twitter feed. They were encouraging folks to tweet support for him to Donald Trump. Was not successful. They are pulling back on info on the kids these days drawing the spotlight back to them and promoting their own skills and/or business ventures. Im sure they are busy looking ahead to life after TLC.

The kids are helping to keep them in the public eye. Both of them have been actively using the show as a springboard to other opportunities. Some successful some not. A couple of years ago, Bill was lobbying to be on Celebrity Apprentice. That did not happen. Rumor has it Jen wants to be the next Dr Sanjay Gupta on CNN or somewhere else. Strike while the iron is hot!

How exciting and bravo to you for being respectful. Not like the crazy fan showing up at their door!

Yes i read that too. The good news is the Pizza Expo he attended was in Las Vegas so I guess he is able to get around a bit more. Sitting on airplanes and walking around a lot must be getting easier for him.

Her competitive nature probably served her very well in school, especially medical school. Striving to be the best she can be compared to others is part of her nature now, maybe her parents instilled that in her. She is probably that way at work. Maybe she just cannot turn it off and brings it home. She certainly does not have to compete with Bill, he seems to be extremely good natured with her competitiveness. We have seen that she does that with the kids too, her and Zoey vs Bill and Will, her and Will vs Bill and Zoey. I just hope the kids get it and that its just fun times.

At least Jen is upfront that she orders carry out frequently. Its not like she is trying to be Rachel Ray in the kitchen with 30 min meals.

I think they both went through a lot to get to where they are. They have showed photos of their hospital stays following surgeries and certainly Bill is recuperating from very serious surgery now. Bill certainly talked about the feeling that he had been discriminated against at least one time in his job search. And that is important for people to know and learn from. And that is why i liked the show. They were demonstrating to people how they faced these obstacles. I liked seeing Bill in the grocery store cleverly figuring ot how to get items and not being sheepish in asking for assistance in getting things. And there was a poignant cautionary tale in China with Will. Will was turned away from one of the rides at the fair because he was too short. And Bill's response was that it would not be the last time. And I really respected that. I am happy that they are doing well, their health overall is good, that they have their family, but now its more like lets see what new car they get, if they buy the beach house, what new business venture will Bill get into, etc. All interesting but It is just time to move on and I think they are showing us that.

Im not suggesting anyone rub anyone's faces in anything. Have a green beer!

My comment is focused on Bill and Jen.

I guess this is an example of how public interest is fuelled when you are on a TV show about your life. People will ask questions about everything and anything. I still think about Bill's comment about finding a fan on their front porch. I wonder if they have second thoughts now that they have a family. I guess we will know soon enough if they sign up for another year. And truth be told, they used their medical conditions to qualify for a reality tv show when it was just the two of them. They offered the public a view of their daily lives. I really enjoyed one ep where Bill was showing viewers how he would throw something at an item on a shelf that was out of reach to knock it down. I havent seen anything like that in a while. Wish there was more of that.

Looks like they have graduated to glassware or plasticware and not sippy cups.

I wonder if that is the same pic where the tabletop is so clean it looks like a mirror. Really lovely table but it wont stay that clean for long.

Clearly plural. Wow I guess Zoey has sleep apnea too. Oh boy and i bet its been going on a while, just like with poor Will until Bill and Jen intervened. Interesting, they showed all that stuff with Will but nothing like that with Zoey. Huge change in sharing info.

They could have passed on Zoey but Jen really really really really wanted a little girl. Anyway, we will never know but Will and Zoey ended up in a forever home which is what matters.

My comments are focused on Jen and Bill and Will and Zoey.

I only thought it was a little over the top when Bill asked Will to hold Zoeys hand while they were sitting right next to each other on the train ride after Wills party. Seemed staged for the cameras.

It is very true that the kids be treated like the most wanted kids in the world. And they are. However, Will and Zoey have already experienced loss from birth parents, experienced loss when they were taken out of the places they called home and moved to a different country. The fact that it has been documented by TLC that Bill and Jen went to great lengths to try to create a biological child before they tried adoption could be hard to deal with when the kids are older. And further, I believe that when the TLC crew finally leaves for good, Will and Zoey will experience another sense of loss as these TLC folks have been with them since they first met their Mom and Dad, Bill and Jen. And of course it is a good thing Bill and Jen adopted them because they faced bleak futures where they were.

I wonder how Will and Zoey will feel when they see Jen and Bill trying fertility treatments and surrogacy first and when those methods did not work, then they tried adoption.

With Jen working full time, I kind of doubt she really has time to spend with friends. Not to say she does not have them, probably just not a lot of time to go out and play like she used to. Especially with the kids now. Im guessing most of the folks she socializes with are work-related. Although about a month ago, Bill tweeted that he was sending Jen to the spa for an overnight stay while he watched the kids. Maybe she went with a friend or two or maybe with her mom. Have no idea about Bill but i suppose he socializes locally with people he does business with. Seems that most of his friends are from New York.

Yet it is another example. Kids, TV, and fame can be a tricky combination.
