One year ago today, Nadya Suleman spawned eight babies at the same time, etching a permanent place in celebrity news history and on local welfare rolls.

Detestable as this excuse for a human being is, it's not Noah, Makai, Josiah, Jeremiah, Maliyah, Isaiah, Nariyah or Jonah's fault. Happy birthday, kiddos!

We hope you enjoy your birthday cake today while mom "works" - she's slimming down for a bikini shoot courtesy of Star magazine. Hey, it's money.

Whatever she's doing, it seems to be working ...

As for the scene at home? It's understandably chaotic.

"That place is a buzz," says Jeff Czech, attorney for Nadya Suleman. "There's constant cooking, constant cleaning, and if not cooking and cleaning, there's a baby in the kitchen sink, and Nadya's giving one of the kids a bath. It's a swirl of activity."

Naturally, Octofreak enjoys the help of three live-in nannies she probably relies on state aid to pay for at her La Habra, Calif., home. Hey, you gotta free up time to lose 145 pounds at the gum and score celebrity news magazine covers.

And so goes the life of the Octomom. So ... would you hit it?
