Our family doctor, Dr. Julie Wilson:
The happy grandparents (first grandbaby on both sides of the family):
A very exhausted (but smiling Jen) after her water broke at 2am, contractions kicked in immediately, and 2 hours of pushing (to bluegrass music in the background of course!):
Our "grumpy man" (looks like Chris at work):
In his sleeping basket (the 4th Hyer boy to sleep in this bed):
4 Generations of Hyers:
First outing to the Alaska wilderness: a whopping 1/2 mile walk at FlatTop at 3 days old.
Thanks everyone for the warm wishes, prayers, and love! We are sleep-deprived, constantly learning, and happy. Much love....Chris, Jen, & Calder

Aaargh me harties! Congrats on your lovely baby boy - or is that bouy? I especially enjoyed the "displacement", "length over all" and "launch" date!
