We are so excited to share that Chad and Erin have welcomed their son, Henry Blythe.

He was born on August 25th.

Henry is do well but we do ask that you pray for Erin. She had some complications. She is recovering from them.

It's time to update the 30-year-old birthday club now that Evan has celebrated his 30th birthday.

Evan joins Erin (Bates) Paine, Alyssa (Bates) Webster, Brandon Keilen, Bobby Smith, and Kelton Balka.

He also joins Whitney (Perkins) Bates, Nathan Bates, Lawson Bates, Zach Bates, John Webster, Michaella (Bates) Keilen, and Chad Paine.

We have a new photo of Kenna to share.

In three months, Kelton and Josie will welcome their fourth child into the world.

Josie has said that they will be finding out the gender at birth like they did with Miles.

We have a new photo of Evan and Carlin's family.

Baby Stewart is due to next month.

Happy Birthday

We have a few photos of Erin as she is a few weeks out from welcoming baby Henry.

Erin has always given birth to her babies between five to six weeks early.

Leave your guesses on when you think Henry will be here?
