rolling over!

the little peanut is rolling over!

i wasn't sure when last thursday he seemed to accidentally roll halfway onto his side from his tummy. but then yesterday he rolled 4 times and today i caught it on video. he has only made it from tummy over his left shoulder to his back, but he can do it!

it is seriously amazing to watch. all these things changing everyday; i swear i wake up and he is a little bigger and doing something new. new noises with softer coos and high pitched screams that aren't cries. new faces, tongue sticking out, and tiny smiles at the wall. new rolls on his thighs, a bigger belly, and more control over his head and neck. he just keeps getting cuter!

i'm so lucky to spend my sometimes sleepless nights and days with my son. i know that these days will continue to go so quick and i'm trying to cherish them. it can be hard at times when he is fussy or won't sleep when i'm tired, but he is so sweet and innocent that i just remind myself these things are precious. so i smell his freshly washed hair and hold his little hands and look at him while he stares in amazement at all the things around him. funny how i am equally amazed by him just being him.

Congrats to Finn!!! I can't believe he is already rolling over (and already so old!). I'm glad everything is going so well for your family. Your nursery turned out amazing (LOVE the mobile)!!! Congrats on the online recognition too! I'm glad you were able to finish it while taking care of a baby! Definitely worth the work! Can't wait to hear all about the new things Finn does in the months to come :)
