on a roll, part 1

Javier first rolled at about 6 weeks old, but hasn’t really done it since.  Yesterday he made it ‘official’ – after getting stuck for a bit the boy is now rolling like crazy.  He hates being on his tummy so every time you put him face down he rolls, in either direction, onto his back.  And then giggles.  It’s hilarious.

some encouragement from ‘big sister’ – he was stuck in this position for a while. I was about to move him, when he finally managed to roll.

tandem tummy time…

you can’t tell in this picture, but both boys have the ‘mancha de papapa’ – a little red mark at the base of their necks.  my grandpa had it and it must be some sort of weird genetic trait because we all have it.  it’s kind of our birthmark.  crazy how some of these things travel through the generations.

since andres sleeps on his tummy, when you put him down for tummy time he thinks you want him to go to sleep.  he wasn’t super happy about that.

not that you could tell.
