Erin's Interview with Chad's Mom

 
Chad and Erin Paine

The lives of the Bates were closely followed on Bringing Up Bates, and they had multiple extended family members featured in various episodes of the show. Chad's mom, Tammy Paine, appeared briefly in a few episodes, including "Boating with the Bates," "Growing Paine," and "He or She What Will the Baby Be?" but she was always present to serve Erin and Chad and never to talk about herself. 

Tammy is actually a mother of 10, and Erin believes she has a lot of wisdom to share with other mamas. Erin recently sat down to interview Tammy and uploaded a video of their chat to YouTube (link below).

2 Bates Gender Reveals

The year is barely one quarter of the way through, and the Bates have already celebrated multiple births and baby related announcements. In February, the Websters announced Rhett's name, Zach and Whitney shared news of their pregnancy, and the Clarks welcomed Hailey. March has been just as busy, with Trace and Lydia's pregnancy announcement, Rhett Alan Webster's birth, and now a gender reveal from Zach and Whitney. 

Baby No. 5 is a girl! The little lady, due in August, will be welcomed by Bradley (8), Kaci (7 in June), Khloe (3), and Jadon (2 in June). 

Trace and Lydia have their baby's gender reveal scheduled for March 31st and plan to post the video publicly by the following day.

Meet Baby Rhett

Rhett Alan Webster is one week old! For those who would like to see footage from Alyssa's birth and delivery, she and John just uploaded a video to YouTube. It starts off with the expectant parents taking a nighttime walk before heading to the hospital and ends with them loading little Rhett in the car so he can go home to his four adoring sisters.

Rhett Coming Soon

Alyssa and John Webster are preparing to welcome their long-awaited baby boy, Rhett Alan Webster! Along with Kelly, the expectant parents are officially checked in at the hospital and ready to meet their first son. Alyssa and John announced the pregnancy in September, followed by the gender reveal in October and the name reveal in February

Rhett's due date is April 3rd, which made fans wonder if he would share a birthday with one of the four Bates grandchildren born in late March (Kolter Smith on March 25th, Zade Stewart on March 27th, Zoey Webster on March 28th, and Everly Paine on March 30th). But it looks like the little man will get his own special day...at least for now. 

When you think of it, pray for a healthy delivery for Alyssa and Rhett. 

Update: Rhett arrived at 7:03pm!
