We've gone through a blog drought and thought it was time for our experiences to precipitate once again. Although there's no rain in the forecast today. Sunday is living up to its name. Christian is getting really big. There's not as much room on the changing table for him. I was blessed to witness Christian roll over for the first time this week, Thursday April 10 to be exact. Heather was at a primary meeting, so I received the babysitting assignment. I heard Christian in the other room fussing a bit so I went to check on him. I noticed he wasn't in his original position. I thought "He's figured something out". If I remember correctly, I repositioned him a little, because he "traveled" up against the railing of his crib. Leaving the room, I noticed Christian staring up at me as if to say "Dad don't leave me". So I stayed another moment. And that is when it happened. Christian flailed his feet a bit and then found traction assuming a stinkbug pose. His rear over took his head in an almost shoulder roll fashion. As a father, I was impressed with his technique and entertained by his new trick. I intervened to ensure he didn't get his feet unsafely entangled in the crib railing, repositioning him once again. A moment or two after moving Christian, I received an encore performance. Now I knew it was not a fluke. Luckily for us, Christian doesn't roll over repeatedly yet, so we haven't dropped the crib mattress or childproofed the cabinets....yet. Enough of my blabbering, here are some of our latest pics:

Claire just figured out she could get somewhere by rolling. Look out it is coming soon.
