Looking back on Mikael's First Week

Wow!!! There is SO much to say about this week!!! It has just been so amazing, awesome, breath-taking and wow, no words could ever describe!!! Mikael is such a star!! He is so super content and calm!
We heard that one should never wake a baby, but this whole week we have had to wake Mikael since he was just LOVING his naps. :)
There has been so many "firsts" this week! He breathed, ate, cried, moved, opened his eyes, bathed, and the list goes on! Wow, it is just so amazing to watch him in everything he does!
Mikael's umbilical cord also fell off this week!
Ouma** Naomi came for a visit all the way from South Africa! She has been a GREAT blessing to mamma as mamma gets used to caring for Mikael. There are just so many things that mamma does not know.
Today Mikael was lying on his belly and picked up his head turning it completely to the other side!!! The nurse said that he is a very strong boy! :)
**Ouma means grandma in Afrikaans
Awe- just look at that little foot!!!

Mikael all wrapped up in his carry bed (he does not really like being too wrapped up and always finds some way of getting his little hands out no matter how tightly we wrap him)

Mikael in the bath- He LOVES bathing!!!

Mikael and his beloved ouma
