Yes - the first back to belly to back acrobatic performance witnessed by mama and papa is documented here. Cecelia and Maria (aka Cecie and Tia) of Tatum's day care told us last week that she is rolling. We thought we'd lay her down and see for ourselves. Lo and behold - she rolls. She squeals, she gurgles, she spits bubbles, she sticks out her tongue, she sucks her thumb, and she ROLLS!
One could be a bit sad that we missed her "first" roll - but with our working schedules, we are satisfied with the new idea of "our firsts". As she continues to develop, her first words and walks may be with her Cecie and Tia; so we'll look forward to our own special performances and delight in the sheer joy she seems to bring to all those around her. Hey - it's the happy compromise of being a working family - but honestly, I did have to take a moment to process through this idea and let go of any attachment to needing to bear witness to first time events.
Note: though the actual turn is not pictured here - the stages of the turn are. Unfortunately the time delays on digital cameras do not allow instant documentation of the fast events of little ones - oh well. We got video footage which I am working on Andrew to get on line.
