LOOK MOMMY- SHE'S ROLLING!!!

"Mommy! Come quick, Lilly is rolling over!" The famous words every mom wants to hear with the first born, but the dreaded words you don't want to hear with the second child. Every mother knows that not long after the rolling over comes crawling, pulling up, and eventually walking (which leads to NO MORE SITTING DOWN & A LOT OF CHASING YOUR CHILD). But when Ava shouted those cute little words I ran into the living room and cheered for Lilly just like I did when Ava rolled over for the first time. Once all the excitement was over and Lilly did a really cute smile, it quickly faded into a frown and she realized she hadn't the slightest idea how to role back over. Lilly could hold her tiny head up for a few minutes before it hit the carpet and she began to whine. We all circled around her like a group of puppies and showed her how to roll back over. It was a "BIG MILESTONE" for Lillybug. Now if we could just figure out how to sleep through the night.

"Look, everybody I'm on my
side!!"

"Yes! I made it all the way over!
What now?"

"All this rolling has puckered me
out."
