Ashley and her husband Austin Brannen are already parents to three-year-old son Brooks Hartman, whom they welcomed in April 2016.
The pair were college sweethearts who reconnected, and wed in the Bahamas in September of 2016, when their baby boy was just five months old.
On Saturday, Ashley’s gallery included additional sweet shots of little Brooks meeting his baby sister, as well as doting dad Austin smiling ear to ear at his brand new baby girl.

‘Look at that frown,’ Austin is heard saying.
‘I can’t believe you were really in there!’ Ashley said to her daughter in delighted disbelief.
Salter also shared some lovely snippets to her IG Story, with captions that said ‘Sleeping angel’ over a shot of the little one fast asleep and ‘She is already so loved’ with family members in line to meet the precious little infant.
