This morning we were on the Fox & Friends morning show on the Fox News Channel. Live TV is always a little scary for me! We had to be at the studio, which was in downtown Austin at 6:45 this morning. We didn't actually go on air until 7:19 am, so the kids enjoyed exploring the set until it was our turn. Unfortunately, by that time, the babies were not quite as subdued as when we first got there, so they were all over the place during the interview. My sister,
Tiare, who is here helping for a couple weeks was on the sidelines to wrangle all the run-a-ways. I think one of my favorite parts is when
Kassidy hurls a little stuffed animal at us and Jayson masterfully catches it. I also had a talk with
Kaiya beforehand about what kinds of things she should or should not be doing during the interview. She did great. As it turns out, it was Riley I should have had that conversation with!!
Here are some "behind the scenes" photos from this morning:

Bright and Early! Kaiya, Riley, Rustin, Ryder, Tiare, Kaydence and Kyndall. We were up ready and on the way to the studio at 6:15 this morning.

Setting up:
Kassidy, Ryder, Riley, Rustin,
Kyndall,
Kaiya, Jayson and
Kaydence. The guy at the studio said he had done thousands of interviews with everyone from
governors to singers, but we were his first set of quintuplets. I have to say he was amazingly relaxed, considering the chaos we were creating.

More setting up---TV Guy,
Kassidy, Ryder, Riley,
Kyndall, Rustin and
Kaiya. The original idea was for Jayson and I to sit in the chairs, Riley and
Kaiya to stand on the sides and all the babies to sit nicely in front of us.

Kaydence. With several minutes left before our "hit time", we decided we better distract the kids with TV (they watched Animal Planet) so they wouldn't completely dismantle the TV studio.
