While Jon Gosselin is off shopping and spending several thousand dollars at Barney’s…Kate is taking the kids to the beach …solo.Kate and ‘the bodyguard’ Steve Nelid took the 8 to  Bald Head Island, North Carolina this weekend.

Don’t you think the kids are wondering why “Uncle Steve” is with them all the time instead of daddy?

I’m so over these two acting a fool and dragging the kids into it that I decided to post these pictures of Kate in a bikini to humble her a little bit. Sure…I suppose you could say she looks to have eight kids…but something is definitely up with that belly button.
