Kelly Bates and her birthday balloons and treats
This weekend has been a busy one for the Bates clan. Yesterday, Kelly Bates celebrated her 52nd birthday in Nashville. She and some of the kids gathered at Tori and Bobby Smith's apartment to help them decorate the nursery. (Robert Ellis Smith IV, whom the Smiths will call Kade, is due in just four weeks!) The Bringing Up Bates film crew was present, so you will likely be able to watch the action on an upcoming episode. Meanwhile, Carlin Bates traveled to Arkansas to visit the Duggars. While she was there, she went to David's Bridal with Jana Duggar and best friend Joy Forsyth.
