Rolling over

Last week, Asher did the easy roll -- from front to back -- this move is little more than falling over.

Today, though, was the big one. He successfully made the transition from his back to his belly. Did we catch it with film? Do we now have it on video? Did anyone see it? Of course not. How, then, do we know that he performed this monumental task?

Mommy had been playing with Asher and Tahlia on the floor in Tahlia's room after nap. Asher started fussing, so Mommy just flipped him over from his tummy to his back for a change of scenery. She turned around to continue playing with Tahlia and the "little people." No. This is not some rude euphemism for other children or midgets. These are the Fisher Price toys that we mention so much. A couple of seconds later, she turned because Asher was fussing again only to find him on his stomach facing her. Due to sleep deprivation, although it should have only taken her a moment to realize that he had rolled over, a few seconds later it dawned on her that she had placed him on his back and now he was on his stomach.

If he begins crawling before we can attain more sleep, who knows where we'll be. Hopefully not all playing 'find the Asher'.
