In a sweet post on their social media pages, singer-songwriter Greg Bates and his equally musically talented wife, Shelley Skidmore, announced that they would be welcoming their first child later this fall. Actually, it was the couple’s apricot poodle, Chesney, that did the heavy lifting bearing a “big sister” medallion in the family’s announcement.

The news comes as Greg and Shelley celebrate their second wedding anniversary. The couple exchanged vows at Shelly’s small hometown country church in Kentucky on May 2, 2015. They haven’t shared details regarding the gender of their new bundle, but hopefully we’ll get more information about this exciting news soon.
