A Lawson Update!

Lawson is working on a new music video that will come out this summer. Lawson says that he has poured out his heart into the new record. The single is titled "Past the past".

Lawson prays that this will be something that all the amazing people supported his joy to enjoy this music.
Where does Sadie come into it?
She plays his love interest in the video. Lawson loves the fact that she was prefect and incredible to work with.
Sadie adds that Lawson is such a gentleman and one of the parts of the video will portray him different but they all laugh at when he was trying to be a jerk.
Sadie says that it was pleasure to be with the Bates family!

For those that don't know who Sadie Roberston is, she appeared in Duck dynasty with her family on A&E. The show aired from 2012 to 2017.

Who do you think will be getting married? 

All about Kaci: 11 months old

We can't believe that Kaci Lynn is now 11 months. Next month, she will be celebrating her 1st birthday.

We asked Taryn if she was going to be doing Kaci Lynn's first birthday pictures and she said yes.

By the end of this month (May), we will be sharing her first birthday cover on both our facebook, blog and Instagram.

We will also have 11 days until one and one week until one!

Warden turns 14!

Happy 14th Birthday Warden Bates!

We hope that he has a blessed day as he celebrates his birthday!

Bates family southern speak: Doohickey

All about Carson: 24 month old

Carson is now two years old! You can check out his second birthday blog by clicking here.
We can not believe that he is celebrating his second birthday. This past year, he has two new cousins, Lexi and Kaci. He also has a new little sister, Brooklyn. 

Erin updated on her son: Happy Birthday to my little buddy! 🎈Thinking back to when I found out I was expecting you, I remember the excitement and anticipation we felt, but also the fear of wondering if we would ever be able to hold you in our arms. You are an answer to many prayers. ❤️️ 🙏🏻You're the sweetest little boy, who loves anyone or anything that moves! 🐶🐱🐭🐰🐷🐮🐸🐝🐞90% of the time you have a little stuffed animal in your arms! You're are so energetic (that explains why I don't have a picture of you looking at the camera!) 😂🏃🏼You're the best big brother to "Brookie-love" (your special name for her)! 👫You know how to make us all smile, and your kisses fix any problem! 😘We love you more and more each day, Carson, and we look forward to this new year with a TWO YEAR OLD! 

We will see you for his 3rd year update since this is our last monthly update.

Matching Mother and Daughter!

Whitney shared a new photo of her and her baby girl from Mother's Day. It's hard to believe that Kaci Lynn is about turn 11 months old later this week. We thought that it would be a wonderful idea to share this newest photo of Whitney and Kaci Lynn! 

Bradley and Kaci: 11 months old

Yesterday, we shared a side by side of Carson and Brooklyn and are back to do one with Bradley and Kaci! 

This one we decided to do one of them being ten months old! 

 We also did one with Allie and Lexi at three month old and you can check it out by clicking here.

The one that we did with Carson and Brooklyn was at nine months.

Carson and Brooklyn: Nine months old

Carson just celebrated his second birthday yesterday so we thought it would be a good idea to compare his nine month old photo to his sister Brooklyn! 

Check out the one that we did with Lexi and Allie at three months old by clicking here. Be sure to stay tune for the one with Kaci and Bradley later this week!

Mother's day 2017

Today is the day that we are celebrating Mothers!
Happy Mother's Day to Whitney, Alyssa, Erin and Kelly Jo!
We hope that you all have a wonderful day being pamper like you deserve to be!
