The adorable duo!

Over the past two weeks since Kaci was born, we have been doing many blogs about her but we had to share some bogs about both Bradley and Kaci! 
 

Recap: The Big Chili

Gil and Kelly have been giving a hnd to the fire department that helped saved Addee's life  when she was a born. When Kelly gave birth she had Beta strep which affects newborns for three days. Gil and Kelly know how blessed they are that she is here. 

When Addee was brought home, she stopped breathing. Gil had to do CPR until the fire department arrived and got her to breathe again.  Addee was rushed back to the hospital and spent a week there. Gil picked out the name for her and she describes that she got a second chance at life. 

Zach, Michaella and Nathan decided to join the fire department but Erin could not do it since she can't stand blood.

Lawson is trying to pick out the prefect outfit and goes to the girls (Alyssa, Carlin and Josie). The girls don't like it when he tries on the red shirt with wolves. Nathan agrees that it's good thing he gets advice from the girls. Gil thinks that Lawson believes that he has a cool guy look about him. 

Kelly asked Michaella if she can adjust some skirts for the girls and Michaella shows her mom that there are adjustable waistbands. 

The event goes well and the family joins him to sing. Gil shares why they are grateful for the department to the crowd.

John(ny) Football

Trace and John try to get the football. It takes them about forty times before they finally make it throw but who does it first?

 

Be sure to turn into tonight's episode of Bringing Up Bates! We will be posting our recap tonight! 

Update: Season three is on Amazon

We are so excited to share that Amazon has finally added Bringing Up Bates season three to their website. Here is the link Season Three.

In Season three, Brandon and Michaella got married and enjoyed their honeymoon. Zach and Whitney celebrated their son's first birthday and announced baby #2. Nathan entered a courtship with Ashley! 

Fun Facts about the Bates

Right when Gil and Kelly started having children, they had Zach and then they had Michaella so it was not much a surprise when Zach and Whitney had Bradley and then Kaci. Now that Chad and Erin had Carson and are expecting Brooklyn into the mix really soon?! 

Did you know that the Bates actually have more children and grandchildren then the Duggars? 

Children:

Bates: 23

Preview: The Big Chili

It’s time to get cookin’! The Bates family is reunited once again to perform at an event very dear to their hearts, the annual Volunteer Fire Department Chili Fundraiser. As they wait for the married couples to arrive, Trace decides to get serious about his trick riding and enlists the help of Gil and Jackson to build a ring to practice in. Later at the big event, the family gets nervous about their upcoming performance. Without much time to practice, will they come up flat or be able to pull it together in time to hit a high note?

32 weeks pregnant

The weeks are counting down until Brooklyn will be here. Erin is doing really well in her pregnancy. 

 Many of you have been asking about our Baby watch series and we will be starting them around 34 weeks pregnant.
