Griffin officially rolls over!

Let's back up...

Griffin first rolled over on Mother's Day (what a gift to me, ya?), but we chalked it up to him being in the slimmer disposable diapers on that trip to Texas (where we spent mother's day weekend. So much fun!). Usually G is in cloth diapers with a plastic-type cover that makes him have a serious booty! But on our trip to Texas both John and I refused to drag dirty diapers back to CA from a 5 day trip, so he got to be in disposables - & he got to roll over for the VERY first time!

The night of Mother's Day he rolled over 3 times in a row from belly to back (2 of which I was in the room to see!). However, after our trip to Texas we had not seen him roll for many weeks. That was up till last Thursday at the River Cats Game (Griffin's first baseball game & a AAA MIBL baseball team that we try to frequent here in West Sacramento as often as possible). We bought lawn tickets, which we usually do - lots of families, lots of space and a great price - and had Griffin laid out on his belly facing up-hill on the blanket. He rolled over a few times that night - which then we attributed to him being on a hill.

But today... today, he rolled over several times - while not on a hill & while in his big diapers! John would still like me to put in a disclaimer that he is "learning and not a master" but I think with babies that goes without saying for all of their firsts. Heck, not just babies, but all of us! The first time any of us do anything new we are still learning, and after we do things a couple of times in a row we then feel comfortable enough to tell people about it. I guess that is where we are at today.

Griffin rolls. He's not a master - and we have no idea when he will do it again, but we feel comfortable enough to share his accomplishment with everyone & we are so excited for what comes next!

Nobel prize here we come! Or maybe a mommy & me class would be a better place for me to set my sights!
