12 years and counting!

 Today marks a special anniversary for our blog! 

We started this blog just days after Gil and Kelly welcomed their 19th child into the world. 

We are so excited for our future blogging for the Bates family.

February Recap

This month, the family celebrated Jeb, Trace, Bobby, Jackson and Addallee’s birthdays. They also celebrated Valentine’s Day. We celebrated our seventh anniversary of our blog.

Kelton and Josie announced that they are expecting a baby in July 2019 and found out the gender of their child. Josie announced that she was 17 weeks pregnant with baby #1 on February 18, 2019.

Carlin and Evan only have three months until their wedding. 

Bringing Up Bates aired the wedding of Kelton and Josie Balka on Valentine’s Day. 

Erin recorded a new cd in late February 2019.

The Big 5 celebration!

It's hard to believe that we started our blog five years ago today! Can you believe it?
