Mother's day pregnancy announcements
Two of the Bates couples are expanding their families.
Bobby and Tori announced that they are expecting their fourth child, a little girl, this August. The baby will be the Bates's 21st grandchild.
Nathan and Esther announced that they are expecting their first child this October.
We are so excited for both couples and can't wait to meet the newest grandchildren.
My heart is overflowing in joy for your family! I have enjoyed "getting to know" you guys thru tv and social media. We have family in Rocky Top that we visit every year so it's neat seeing hometown folks thrive. May God continue to bless and keep y'all!
