Hunter McGrady is giving fans what they want: an update on her beautiful new baby girl, Ava Bryn Keys. The SI Swimsuit model and her husband, Brian Keys, welcomed their daughter on on March 9. The two are already parents to a 1-year-old son, Hudson.

The 29-year-old shared a heartfelt and vulnerable message with her 717,000 Instagram followers on March 23.

“All the worries I had that I wouldn’t love you as much, they have washed away. I love you more than I can put into words,” McGrady wrote. “Two halves of my heart beating outside my chest, getting to know one another, has been truly surreal. 2 weeks with our girl ♥️.”

The video featured clips of Ava in the hospital being held in her mom and dad’s arms as well as an adorable snippet with her big brother.

“Our sweetest angel babies ❤️,” sister Michaela McGrady commented. “Happy two weeks Ava girl!”

“This caption is giving me all the feels 🥺🥺,” Mara Martin gushed.

“I just found out I was pregnant with my second,” one fan added. “This caption is just what I needed ❤️… congratulations ☺️.”

“Okay I’m crying,” another chirped. “Strongest and most beautiful mama in the world with the sweetest babies in all the land❤️.”
