I love how Trace's family still gets so excited even after already having so many baby announcements!!

I love how Lydia and Josie are like best friends!

The difference between the German parents and the American parents 😂. Congratulations, great way to tell the Bates. X

That was one of the BEST birth announcements I’ve seen. Such clever ideas… especially having Kelton open the gift :) priceless!! Love Josie .. it’s not us!!! 🤣🤣🤣!! Soooo excited for you all!! Can’t wait for gender reveal!!

Lydia, I bet your parents are gonna be so happy to be an Oma and Opa! So happy for y’all!

I've never seen anyone with gold colored eyes before. When the sun shines on Lydia's eyes they look like gold! That is super rare and special.❤️

I know we are seeing this weeks late from real time!! So you guys already know boy or girl. So excited for you both. Y'all are going to make great parents and this baby is blessed to be born into two lovely families. That is amazing in this day and time. Two Christian families!! Two sets of grandparents that love God!! So blessed.

It was so fun seeing both of your families reactions. Congratulations officially!! Lydia, has a little baby bump already. That is still cute!! 💖

Loved Lydia’s family singing the German song Viel Glück und viel Segen to Trace. It’s my Opa’s favourite to sing at our birthdays as well.😍 Also so exciting for them becoming first time Oma und Opa and so many first time Onkel und Tanten. Congratulations guys.😊🎉

A great grandma name is honey that's what my grandkids call me. I thought they would stop as that got older. My oldest are in their 20s and still call me Honey.

God bless you in this next chapter of your life. Praise God. ❤️

Lydia if you see this keep Cheerios at you bed. Before you even raise your head in the mornings, eat a handful or two of dry Cheerios. And then continue laying for about 10-15 mins. Let them absorb the stomach acids. That helps also with morning sickness. Also ask for nausea meds the 1st appt. Some doctor will call it in before even seeing you. Another thing, with prenatal ask about getting the ones with a built in stool softener. Or atleast ask which ones you can take. Take them with every prenatal vitamin. You will thank me later. And last but certainly not least. If the prenatals don’t agree with your system, ask about taking kids vitamins. My doctor allowed to me take on in the AM and one in PM. That helped me so much. These was just things the doctors told me and they helped tremendously

Congratulations, you both will be great parents. God Bless.

I'm so excited for you two. 💓 Lydia I was hoping for twins with you. But one is also precious.

I love how the Bates family was so excited. Can't believe Tracy is going to be a dad. He was and still one of my favorite Bates. . Lydia so happy for you to

Congratulations to you and your husband.

So excited for you guys.

So happy for the two of you. Exciting!!!!
