It’s a girl

When a big balloon popped and lots of pink confetti flew out, Hannah and Ron Nates, along with their families, knew they were expecting a baby girl. The soon-to-be parents gathered a small group of family members for the long-awaited gender-reveal party in their backyard. While they had to skip a large gathering and celebrating with a bigger group of family and friends, Hannah and Ron are thankful for their healthy baby on the way. The slower pace during the pandemic has given them a chance to spend some extra time nesting at home to prepare for the arrival of their firstborn. Baby Girl Nates is scheduled to arrive on March 25, which happens to be Hannah and Ron’s fourth wedding anniversary.
