Proud Mama

Isn't it amazing how you just swell with pride at the smallest little thing that your baby does? Today I almost burst open. Josie and I were both hanging out on the floor. She was laying on her back playing with her feet and blowing raspberries and I was making some phone calls. I was also laying on my back and not really paying much attention to her. Then I sat up and saw that she was nearly on her stomach but her left arm was squished underneath her still. She tried for a couple of more seconds, half on her side, half on her stomach and then rolled back to her back. I continued to watch her and she rolled herself back over about a minute later. This time she stayed on her side/stomach for a few seconds making funny grunting noises. Then all of a sudden she yanked her arm out from under her and she was on her stomach! She rolled from back to belly! I was so excited that I called Alex at work even though I'm only supposed to call for really important things.

Additionally, for all of you enthralled in the nap/cereal saga...she took only 1 nap today. It lasted about 2 hours but consisted of time in the crib, time nursing and time in the bouncy chair. It was still nice to have such a large chunk of time to get things done.

And, all of a sudden today she loved her cereal! She would grab my hand and pull the spoon in closer and make noises if I was too slow. When did my little baby get so smart and big?
