Keeping Tradition

Whenever a baby is born into our family the tradition is for MeMom (my mom) to give the first bath and that's just what happened today! Kau'e's umbilical cord fell off on Tuesday (21 days after birth) and we waited a few more days for his belly to heal just a little more.
Just looking at the video proves that Kau'e enjoyed his time in the bath given by his MeMom.



Also today Kau'e had another Preemie follow up visit at the doctors and he did beautifully; he gained a pound in one week. His birth weight was 5 lbs 2 oz, last appointment which was last Friday he weighed 6 lbs 8oz and then today he weighs 7 lbs 8 oz.
