Mastering New Skills

Charlotte has been able to roll from back to belly for quite a few weeks now. This weekend she decided to practice her rolling skills over and over and over. Sounds like a great thing but she insisted on practicing only when we put down for naps. Instead of babbling and falling asleep she would roll to her belly and cry...because she doesn't like that position. So we would flip her to her back multiple times until she fell asleep. Dave even gave her a pacifier while she was on her back in hopes that it would distract her. She pulled it out of her mouth and tossed it behind her head and then proceeded to flip over and grab it again. Ahh! This made for a long few days and a crabby baby who needed more sleep!

A few times she did fall asleep on her belly which makes me very nervous...but I know there isn't a lot I can do about it. We will be practicing her belly to back rolling every day until she gets really good at that too! Until then, she is making Mommy and Daddy nervous.

On a lighter note Charlotte wore her first pair of Crocs this weekend...so cute.
