Milestones

Let me set the scene...... Thursday evening, opening night of football season - Saints vs. Vikings, first half. SG checking on Fantasy Football via internet, KT and Nanny Kat cooking up a storm (Thai tofu tacos...yum, yum!), baby ERG kicking up a storm on the living room floor.

Kat: "Look at you doing tummy time!"
KT: "What! Tummy time?"
SG: "Tummy time?!"

The shock that may or may not be transmitted through this short dialogue is that when baby ERG was placed on the living room floor he was not doing tummy time. At the very moment each and every adult in the room was preoccupied with something other than the baby, which is rare, he chose to complete his very first unassisted rollover. The very rollover that he has been on the verge of accomplishing for the last three weeks. Apparently the stars aligned and he managed to combine all the right muscle groups at all the right time to reach this milestone...and we missed it.

However, like any good parents we rolled him back over onto his back and made him perform his new trick again and again until exhaustion set in and the bedtime cry began. The video is a re-enactment of the event.
