Ryan and Mary Ann decided to wait until the birth of their baby to tell us that they were expecting. It would have been a complete surprise, except that Jamie had prepared us. One day when Ryan was visiting, she said "I wouldn't be surprised if you guys just showed up at Christmas time with a new baby." At least we didn't have to wait until then to find out.
Afton Victoria Ahlstrom was born Oct. 11, 2010 (missed 10-10- 10 by one day). She was 5 lbs. 4 ozs. 19 in. They called us and asked us to get on the webcam because Dayton had something he wanted to show us. Then we got to see the sweet dark haired beauty that we weren't even expecting. I can't even begin to imagine how hard that secret was to keep for 9 months!
