Rollie Pollie Ollie!!!

You hit a new milestone tonight!! You rolled from your back to your front!!!

I am so proud of you and now a little scared :) Gone are the days of you staying where I put you. Some wise mommy friends of mine have told me not to wish away your milestones because they go so fast. I agree. I'm glad they offered that advice because I feel like I really have enjoyed the in between times but, I'm also excited that you are growing so well and right on track. It's easy to get sucked-in to tracking your milestones and worrying when things aren't happening exactly when they are "supposed to". In my field of work, I tell parents everyday that these milestones are merely guidelines and not to worry if their child is a couple of months  behind. But what do I do? I come home, read emails about your development and get antsy when they say that "by now your little one may be rolling from back to front and front to back". You definitely have your own time frame for adding new tricks to your repertoire - typically a week after the email.
