After many months of waiting, praying, and browsing through baby name books, we are proud to announce the name of our soon-to-be baby girl!
Ansley Elise Mitchell
We wanted our first born daughter or son to have a family name. Once we found out it was a girl, we knew we would be saving our family boy name (Carson Reed)in hopes that we will one day be blessed with a son. So, we decided to pull pieces of my mom, paternal grandmother and maternal grandmother's names together to create a first name we loved. Then, we wanted the middle name to be a name that had a rich meaning that would represent who she is as a daughter of the King. Elise means "Vow to God" or "Consecrated to God". Also, Elise is a variant form of Elizabeth which is both of our sisters middle names.
Ansley Elise, you are consecrated to God and you are His precious princess. From before you were even conceived, we dedicated you to Jesus. We thank Him for the privilege we have been given in caring for you, His little one. We have already begun praying strong prayers for you, our daughter. Our hearts have been moved to pray specifically that you will be a woman of strong convictions, unblemished character, unwavering purity, who devotes your life to knowing Jesus and giving your life for His glory.

You guys did great! What a beautiful name with so much meaning. We Hannah Claire and Ansley will have so much fun together.
LOVE the name. It's beautiful.
You guys and we have VERY similar taste. Ansley has always been one of our favorite names (and would have been Asher's name had he been a girl). Now we will definitely mark it off the list should our little bundle be a girl. :)
As for Elise, LOVE it too! I have considered the name Annaliese. Not the same, but very similar.
I love that we think so much alike!
Great job, guys!
love it! can't wait to meet my little niece ansley
LOVE IT!!!! :)

Ansley Elise is so beautiful. I am so excited for the two of you. She is a blessed princess. I can't wait to see her. We have some great kids in this family, all who will carry on the torch that was lit with Paw Paw. I can't wait to see what role she will play in bringing people to Christ.
Ansley Elise is such a beautiful name for a beautiful little angel.
