Rollin' On Over

Babies are funny.  Before today, Collin has rolled over a couple times - primarily on "accident."  That is, he's been on the floor messing around and - WHOOOP!  He'd roll over.  Or, it's taken a fair bit of prodding and almost trickery on our part.  He's been strong enough to roll over for a long time - he's really strong, actually.  But he never quite had it down - rolling from his back to his stomach.  His one arm kept getting in his way and it was stop him from completing the roll.

Until this morning.  He's laying there on the floor on his back and, almost like it was nothing, he rolls over.  I was amazed.  But, one roll does not a trend make.  So, I put him back on his back.  Two seconds later - WHAM-O.  He rolls over again- no sweat. 

Collin and I spent most of the afternoon down in the "manatorium" watching the NFL network's highlights of every single Super Bowl.  It was great.  In the several hours that we were down there, he rolled over more times than I could keep track of.  He'd roll over, looked shocked for a second, look at me and laugh and start chewing on his fist.  Finally, he'd get a little bored with it and, unable to yet roll back over, I'd help him out.  A few seconds later, he'd roll over again - like he'd been doing it for years.

Pretty neat stuff - he figured it out and perfected the art of rolling over in a couple hours.  Pictures and videos of the action coming soon...
