Kyler!!

while we were home God blessed us with the gift of Kyler Matsui! not that he belongs to us (he belongs to his mom and dad!), but we were just glad to have been back home when he was born. sandi and carla have been good firends since jr. high, and sandi was hoping that Kyler would be born while we were home! he was due after we were scheduled to leave, but he defied his due date and arrived a little early, on December 22nd. sandi, john and i went to visit him and his exhausted, but joyous, mom and dad the evening on the day that he was born. here he is, less than 24 hours old! AMAZING! great job, Carla...and congratulations to Stacey and big brother, Asher!!

Dr. Uchida did a little newborn exam on the defenseless young man...it was neat to see a little bit of what she does day after day in the hospital...
