Christmas 2009

Baby Santa surely brought lots of joy to our family. He was our best present this Christmas.


Now our family is truly complete. RJ now has a baby brother to play with and grow up with!

One of Mom's favorite photos. Love that smile!

RJ can't wait to open all of his presents

Welcome to the Family Richard Alexander Yu

Richard Alexander Yu was born on December 9, 2009 at 2:30 a.m. at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, Kansas. He weighed 6 lbs. 10 oz.

Here is Mom in labor. Mom and Dad went to the hospital right after dinner on December 8, 2009. The labor went pretty quickly this time. The doctor did not get to the hospital in time for Richard to come out. Mom said "oops", and out he came! The nurses and everybody else were surprised to see him come so soon. I guess he is excited as we are to meet him.






Mom's first reaction upon seeing Richard was he looks exactly like RJ!




Ama, Angkong and RJ came to the hospital for a visit.


RJ was so excited he kept on chattering and smiling. He said "Welcome to the family Ti-ti (little brother)"

Ama, Yeh-Yeh (Chan) and Uncle Ping's Visit

November 24 - December 25, 2009

We are very fortunate to have family come over to help out with Richard's birth. We all had a very enjoyable and memorable time. I cherish special but rare moments like this. I am glad that RJ got to spend some time with his grandpa and grandma as well as his Uncle Ping. He misses them dearly and after so many months still talks about them. We can't wait to see them all again.

Here is a picture of RJ riding in the scooter basket. He loves riding in "Ama's car" when we go shopping.

Here is RJ pushing his baby cart at the grocery. He is trying to be helpful.

Ama and Yeh-Yeh went to visit RJ in school.
