Roll'n, roll'n, roll'n

It is a guarantee that every child will perform at least one "first" when mommy's not looking. Allie decided not to put off the inevitable...
We were getting ready to take a bath, so I had laid her on her back on the floor while I went downstairs to get a diaper. I came back upstairs...and she was on her tummy!!! I thought that it must have been an accident, but just in case I ran downstairs, and like every good mom, got the video camera. :) She, amazingly, graced her mom with a repeat performance, which is forever memorialized on DVD. I think I'm starting to get this mom-thing down.
Unfortunately, while she was able to repeat the rollover several times, the bath seemed to wash the memory of the newly acquired skill from her memory. When daddy came home we watched and watched and watched, but once she reached her side, as she still does now, she found her thumb and decided that sucking is more fun than rolling. Instead she showed daddy another new trick...rolling from tummy to back. Lots of fun milestones, all in one day. We're still waiting for a repeat performance.
I hope to soon work on loading the movie onto my computer so you can see for yourself. :)

Awww! She's growing up so fast. Rollin' all over the floor already. That's fantastic! I saw her in Promiseland this past Sunday morning! She is just too cute for words! Hope all continues to go great for you all!!
