A couple weeks ago, Elizabeth learned to roll over. She could/can only roll over from her back to her belly, and only to the left side. (I think I've mentioned this before). Anyways, there were times when I could tell she was trying so hard to roll back onto her back from her belly,but she just didnt have the strength to do so. Well, NOW SHE DOES! The first time it happen, I missed it. But I KNOW it happen because she was 1st laying on her back in the living room on the floor, and I saw her roll over onto her belly. I went into the kitchen to get something,and when I came back out, she was back on her back again. Magic? I dont think so! My girls got skill! So of course, I was treating her like a little pooch saying "roll over, roll over!" Come on mom! She's not a dog! She doesnt do tricks!
With time though, later that evening, she did it again, all on her own. She was rolling back & forth from back to belly, and belly to back. I was so proud of her. I couldnt wait for Daddy to come in from the barn so he could see it too. BUT, of course, by the time he came in that night, she was so tuckered out, she didnt have the energy to perform her newly learned "trick"! She is still trying her hardest to get scootching around, but she just can't get it all figured out. This still frustrates her! Someday! Someday soon, I'm afraid! I better start baby-proofing the house. I know I keep saying this, but its about time I actually do it so its DONE!
She has a little v-tech ball that her grandma gave her,and it makes noise, sings songs and rolls on the floor, on its own. It's a unique toy, but very entertaining for both E and I! Anyways, one of the songs it sings goes "Rockin Rollin' little ball, how I wonder where you'll roll..." So, now I sing that song to Miss E "Rockin' Rollin' little E, how I wonder where you'll roll!" Doesnt have quite as nice of a rhythm to it, but it works! Now that she is capable of rolling over, she is usually rolling off of the blanket that we lay down for her, which, for the most part is fine, because we have carpet, but, no matter how many times one vaccuum's the floor, you never know what kind of bugs are living beneath the surface! ICK! I get the willy's just thinking about it!
