Kai’s birth

We are happy to announce that our son Kai Alexander was born on April 22 at 2:00 am. He was a healthy 6 lbs., 15 oz. and 18 inches. Maya and Parker are enthralled with their new baby brother. Mom and Dad are ecstatic that he is a perfectly healthy, beautiful and mellow child. We can’t wait to see you all and introduce you in person to Kai.

All our love,
Melisa, Andy, Maya, Parker and Kai Lauer
