Roll Over

Avery is changing so fast! She is eating a ton lately and hasn't been napping so well. I'd heard that a change in sleep patterns might indicate a build up to a milestone. Sure enough, she rolled over ... deliberately ... and then righted herself! She did a 360! After that, I grabbed the camera, D got home from work at that exact moment, and we capture one of her first belly to back roll overs. I consider this a milestone as much for me as for her. I'm so not good at getting the camera out to capture stuff like this. The snag is that she was not wearing any clothes or diaper at the time of the roll over (she gets so happy when she's not clothed and I thought that make it easier for her to roll over), so we can't post that video. However, we do have the video of Daddy making her giggle. As you know, I love giggles! This best giggle is at the very end of the video.



She and I have found that the hip carry suits her much more for sling wear than the newborn cradle position. I like the material of the mesh sling, too. I've also ordered a few more slings that will hopefully be the sling perfection for which I search.

Today we went out for lunch and then a walk through the park. Avery much preferred to be in the sling vs her stroller, so that is a nice development.
