The Froschauer Family: Rollin' Again...

I posted last month that Riley began rolling from her tummy to her back. She has gotten so good at rolling to her back that sometimes it's hard to keep her on her tummy when putting her down to bed. We will put her in her crib to sleep/nap and then hear her talking to herself and when we go check on her she is on her back smiling up at us when she should be sleeping! It is so hard to be mad at her because she is so cute when she smiles!

The doctor told us that Riley will probably take a little longer to roll over since she is a tummy sleeper instead of a back sleeper...well it looks like the doctor was wrong! Riley has been loving her gym mat - she plays on her back - and has been rolling onto her side and then scooting around the mat using her heels. G-ma has been watching her while I work and told me today, "It's only a matter of time before she rolls onto her stomach". I put Riley on her gym mat when I got home from work and she immediately rolled onto her side and then...onto her tummy! I was so excited to be able to see it happen for the first time!! I ran upstairs to get the camera so I could document it and luckily she did it a few more times before getting tired and going down for her nap.

The first three photos are of Riley rolling from her tummy to her back.

This is an example of what we see when we go into Riley's room and she has rolled onto her back when she should be sleeping - she gives you a big smile. She is so proud of herself for rolling over!
