Mobility, Phase 2

This morning, M rolled over (front to back) for Leo (he saw it!  I'm not crazy!)

And now she's working on back to front, although I imagine when she accomplishes it and realizes that she's managed to get herself onto her stomach, where she really doesn't entirely enjoy being, her pacifier will turn to ashes in her mouth, and there will be weeping and wailing.

See?

We begin with a slight head and shoulder turn.



Which becomes more pronounced.



And soon becomes a full side shift.



We were wondering, though, does it count as a developmental milestone when she manages to roll back to front, but as part of a front to back to front roll?  She picked up quite a bit of momentum, and she is completely spherical, so she just kept rolling.  Somehow, I think it doesn't check off that little box on her developmental chart.

  1. Technically, I think she's closer to cylindrical than spherical.
