Roly Poly

Today was a very exciting day at the Ryan house...and thankfully, both Dave and I were home for it!  Jack rolled over (he is 4 months and 2 days old)!!  He has been teetering from his back to his side for a while but those movements were greatly intensified today.  He had his whole body going...all the way from the tip of his toes to the top of his head.  Then, all of the sudden he rolled from his back to his tummy!  Dave gave me a Kodak Play Sport video camera for Christmas and since Jack had been wiggling a lot today I had it recording...I was able to get his first roll on camera!

I was worried that he would be scared after he rolled (as he doesn't care for tummy time at all) but he seemed very content and proud of himself after this big accomplishment.  Since the initial roll, he has rolled over another time (phew...it wasn't a fluke) and at dinner he tried to roll out of his infant rocker.  Dave and I have quickly learned that we officially can't take our eyes off of him (but he's so darn cute we hardly take our eyes off of him in the first place).  The road to mobility was paved today...so exciting, terrifying, and sad all at the same time...our baby boy is growing up!
