There was a time when all the world was glued to their screens for Jon and Kate Plus 8...
Yeah... it was a bad time to be alive.But for whatever reason, they melted our hearts and made us love 'em enough for more than one season. But since the show aired, they've also gone through their problems in the public eye. Even having Jon and Kate's marriage fall apart and the kids being forced to grow up during a tough time.
But the kids have thrived and you should see them now..
This was one of the earliest pictures of the famous TLC family when they still looked like pink hamsters soon after they were born on May 10, 2004.
This was one of the earliest shots that the family took when they broke onto the scene...
This was Gosselin family in the very first season back in 2007. And they were basically ALL perfect little gems!
The show aired on TLC and was a hit from the start!
The family sat down and did a photo shoot in 2008. A year into their success and they'd already appeared on Oprah and the names "Jon and Kate" were burned into our collective vocab.
Whether we wanted it or not....
Back in 2008, the couple renewed their wedding vows in Hawaii and it was freakin' magical..
The sextuplets turned five years old in the season premiere of the show, back in 2009. But that was also the year...
The birthday was hilarious!
... the couple broke up. And viewers lost their freakin' minds.
But the family had to soldier on, so Kate took on a bigger role in her kids' lives. At least on-screen.
These are the sextuplets during a trip to the fire house!
By 2010, Jon made an exit to stage left and the show changed its title to Kate Plus 8.
By 2011, Kate and 8 was coming to a close the FIRST time.
These were the kids on the cover of the "Love Is The Mix" cooking book that Kate Gosselin put out in 2013.
Kate Plus 8 was coming back to TV in year....
For the third season premiere of Kate Plus 8 they were shipped out to have an authentic "pilgrim experience."
This was the fam jam in 2014! Holy crap, time just FLIES BY.
By 2015, the Gosselins were made up oftwo spunky teenagers and six 11-year-olds oin their way to being a massive pain for their single-mom!
And finally, this was the promo from the latest season!
Just stare and appreciate how grown up all of the kids look.... CRAZY.
