Last week, Lottie was laying on Aunt Stephanie's lap, and she rolled over. Yup, that's right, she rolled all the way over from her back to her front. Now, being that she was on someone's lap, I had to ask myself how much was Lottie, and how much was the fact that she was maybe slightly on a slant. Stephanie said that Lottie did it all by herself, but I still wasn't quite sure.
Well, yesterday I laid Lottie on a blanket while I went to take a shower. When I got out, I could hear her fussing. Not really crying, but not happy. I came out to check on her, and this is how I found her:
Indeed, she really had rolled all by herself! And what's more, she did it every time I put her on her back and walked away. After a while, she even started enjoying being on her tummy more.
Now we just have to work on getting her to roll back over to her back when she's done with tummy time. Which, according to the development books, she should have done before rolling from back to front.

Go Lottie! Brielle rolled from back to front first too. I remember she hated her head in the floor so she would roll over constantly and then cry about being on her tummy. I was so happy when she figured out how to roll back the other way.
All babies are different, but I think the smaller ones have an easier time rolling than the chubby ones. Less weight to whip over, I guess...
I TOLD YOU!! Oh ye of little faith. How advanced are my little ones? Lottie rolling and Ainsleigh starting to crawl...
