The little puppy can be seen hanging out in their living room. While Liz didn’t share much about their dog, many are excited for their growing family.

Having pets has been a common thing in the Johnstons family. Some of them had a French bulldog and even farm animals. Liz and Brice’s previous dog, Miller, passed away, and Banks’s arrival will help heal the wound that Miller left behind.
Baby #2 On The Way
While the spotlight is currently on Banks, fans have been buzzing about a second human baby joining the crew. On March 10, 2026, Liz confirmed those suspicions with a heartwarming announcement.

Sharing a series of family photos, Liz revealed that she and Brice are expecting their second child in early fall 2026. One particularly touching image featured 2-year-old Leighton holding sonogram photos, officially preparing for her new role as a big sister.
“We’re so thrilled to announce that Leighton will be becoming a big sister early fall of 2026,” the couple shared in a statement to TLC.
Looking Toward the Future
Liz has been open in the past about her desire for a second child, specifically expressing a hope to “try for a little person” so that Leighton could have a sibling close in age. However, the couple has also hinted that this second pregnancy will likely be their last. In a recent update, Liz mentioned that after the arrival of “Baby B No. 2,” they plan to focus entirely on raising their two children and giving them the best childhood possible.
For now, the Bolden household is a busy one, filled with wedding bliss, a growing toddler, a new pregnancy, and the energetic antics of their new puppy, Banks.
