“Welcome to our lives, Ames Alexander,” Hannah shared in her own post. “The world is already a brighter place because you’re in in! Oh, how your daddy and I have prayed over your precious life. I can’t believe God chose us to love you forever, but I’m sure glad He did. Now, let the adventures begin!”
Baby Ames joins big brother Asher, 3. Mooney and Billingsley announced in August that they were expecting their second child, sharing a series of photos of Asher sitting in front of a blue and pink heart drawn in sidewalk chalk. In the snaps, Asher puts his hand over the blue heart, with a video showing the toddler happily exclaiming, “We’re having a baby boy!”
“Celebrating a number 1 with baby number 2!” Shay wrote, referring to Dan + Shay‘s “All to Myself.” “Hannah and I have been dying to share the news. We thought for sure we’d be announcing a baby girl, but God has other plans for the Mooney’s. Found out today we’re having a BOY! Bout to be a new duo in town.”

Mooney and Billingsley married in 2017, and their wedding, along with Dan + Shay member Dan Smyers‘ wedding to Abby Law, was featured in the duo’s music video for “Speechless.”
Baby Ames arrived right on schedule, as Dan + Shay are set to begin their 2020 The Arena Tour on March 6 with two shows in Nashville.
