Rolling, rolling, rolling....

Just about a month and a half ago Julia learned to roll from her stomach onto her back. Once she completed the roll she almost always grabbed her foot and put it in her mouth to chew on her toes. How I wish I had that kind of flexibility.

Since that time we have been waiting for her to learn to roll in the opposite direction, from back to tummy, and last week she made her first attempt. Since then she's been going back and forth, tummy to back, back to tummy, clearly thrilled with her new skills. This is just the first step of many towards mobility, and one that gives me pause. She's growing up too fast! Here is a very short video of her roll.



In other news, Aunt Betsy is here for a visit, and the girls are thrilled. B makes it no secret that her goal is to be the favorite aunt. I hate to say it, but Laura and Wendy have some very fierce competition. I don't think that Bets will actually let anyone else be a favorite. Photos of her and the girls will be posted tomorrow.
