Because she is almost 19. When you are that age, you naturally say you are about to be.... my son’s birthday is in a couple of weeks. He is 15. Someone asked me a couple of days ago how old he is, and I told them 15 about to be 16. At some point, we don’t like acknowledging that we are getting older, so we quit trying to bump it up to the next year.
I agree Anonymous @3:38. My daughter has a birthday coming up in a couple months and I do the same thing! I guess because she's closer to the next birthday than her last one.

ReplyDeleteWow, thanks for the great photo!! Katie looks a lot like Erin.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful young ladies. Truly Blessed-
ReplyDeleteKatie looks like Erin.
ReplyDeleteKatie’s face looks identical to Erin in this shot!
ReplyDeleteKatie is stunning
ReplyDeleteKatie resembles Erin here. Best wishes to Josie!
ReplyDeleteIs black Josie's favorite color or is it because she's a hair dresser now?
ReplyDeleteI think she just likes to wear neutral colors.
DeleteOh wow,Katie looks identical to her other older sis Erin Paine!!
ReplyDeleteKatie looks exactly like Erin! So grown up and lovely!
ReplyDeletethe bates are all very attractive people but i think as she gets a little older, katie's going to give gil a fit with how stunning she is already!
ReplyDeleteKatie kind of looks like Erin
ReplyDeleteBeautiful woman.... but why can’t you just say Josie is 18? Why the “ almost 19?”
ReplyDeleteto make her seem older since she’s about to get married ๐

DeleteJosie's birthday is august 4
Delete5:32- That's what is said when someone wants to sound older than they are.
DeleteThe blonde Bates girls! Where was Erin, Alyssa & Callie? Cute picture though
ReplyDeleteAlyssa is not blonde.
DeleteShe does look alot like Erin.
DeleteI think Katie, Erin, Josie and Alyssa die it, based on their childhood pics. The only one who seems to be naturally blonde is Callie
ReplyDeleteAlyssa definitely dyes her hair and Katie and Josie highlight theirs. So does Carlin. Not sure about Michael and Erin.
DeleteI think only Alyssa' s hair is died. I could be wrong thoughm
DeleteKatie can look like both of her sisters Carlin and Erin mostly Carlin.
ReplyDeleteIf I didn’t know better, I would think Katie to be older than Josie. They are both beautiful young women and seem very stable.
ReplyDeleteKatie resembles Erin. Alyssa is a bit more petite as is Josie.
ReplyDeleteTWO very attractive girls for sure.
