Secretly Rolling Over

Lydia has never really liked being on her tummy. I think it is because she always wants to know what is going on in every direction, and her range of motion is just too limited when she is on her tummy. Consequently, we have to force Lydia to have tummy time since it is beneficial to her physical development, but to be completely honest, she doesn't spend a whole lot of time on her tummy, because we (ok, it's really just her mom) can't stand to hear her whine in distress - even if it is for her own good. So, while Lydia's friends have been starting to roll over, Lydia has not...that is until last Friday. I had given Lydia some tummy time, and she hadn't complained about it too much. But, after almost 10 minutes, she seemed to be getting a little tired of holding her head up, so I flipped her on to her back. I then ran downstairs to put some laundry in the dryer, and when I came back upstairs, Lydia was on her tummy again! Of course, after spending almost every waking hour with little Lydia, I missed her first rollover! I told her she was a little stinker!

Here's Lydia as I excitedly cheered and took her picture.
Lydia quickly decided she wished she could roll back over onto her back.
