Announcing Ahnie Ione Williams

We are proud to announce that Ahnie Ione arrived yesterday on April 28th at 1:24 in the afternoon. She was 7lbs 14oz and 21 inches long.



We were very blessed with a quick labor! They broke my water at 10:35 and in just under 3 hours we were holding our daughter. I only pushed for 16 minutes! Her blood sugar was a little low right away but after a few feedings and having to suppliment once with formula she has been able to keep that up! We are all doing well! Ayden has come to visit his baby sissy twice and loves saying her name (which he has been saying for a while now but since its a little different nobody picked up on it). He also loves if you ask him if he is a Big Brother!

We have had a lot of questions about where her name came from and how to pronounce it. You say it like 'ah knee'. Brett had a student named Ahnie and he always really liked it. Her middle name is my middle name and I was named after my dad's aunt. It is also Brett's grandma's name. Once I found out we both had an Ione in the family I knew that name would have to be passed on.



We have so much to be thankful for! We love our new family of four!!!
