Roly Poly Baby

One of Danielle's latest tricks...



I missed the first few times she actually did this. I had left her on the floor in Naomi's room and when I returned about a minute later, she was on her belly! This kept happening when I was out of the room, so at first I was convinced that Naomi must be pushing her over! Eventually I did witness Danielle rolling on her own and it was a very cool mom moment.

Now Danielle loves to roll and generally enjoys being on her tummy, for a little while. She is not yet able to consistently return to her back though and instead calls out for help!

[Side note: Danielle rolled over much earlier than Naomi did -- I think it has to do with the fact that I never wanted to put Naomi down, so she didn't get nearly as much floor time to figure things out as Danielle gets. It is certainly different for the second child!]

  1. Hurray!
    She's very deliberate about it... no flipping for her!

  2. Rolling over is one thing, but rolling over with a purpose - to grab that toy - that's something altogether different!!

    Very impressive!

    When does she start gymnastics?
