According to photos obtained by the Daily Mail, the actress stepped out with her newborn on Saturday, October 29, in New York City. She was joined by Kail and their 2-year-old son, Hart.

The Dawson’s Creek alum, 42, revealed she was pregnant again in May during a Variety interview.

“It’s totally joyous,” Williams told the outlet for its cover story at the time. “As the years go on, you sort of wonder what they might hold for you or not hold for you. It’s exciting to discover that something you want again and again, is available one more time. That good fortune is not lost on me or my family.”
