Admittedly, we haven't been doing tummy time with Ella as much as we probably should be, but we have been making up for it (hopefully) with practicing her sits. She has gotten really stable now! She's a little more wobbly in her chair on her own, but she can still handle it.
Well, after the holidays we are getting back on track with tummy time, and, boy, has she grown! She can rock several minutes of tummy time without crying at all!! And she has learned that she can just put her head down when she gets tired. Don't ask me why that wasn't intuitive, but when she was smaller, she would just keep holding her head up and cry. Being able to think, "Hey, I'm tired, let me just put my head down and rest" is a big step for a baby.
Side note: look at the baby jeans! There are even little pockets on the back! I don't know what she needs pockets for, but they are there in case she ever needs to carry something.
Anyway, with the resurgence of tummy time, the inevitable has happened: rolling over! She has rolled over before, but it always had a little assist or was just a spazzy accident. Not anymore! You put her on her stomach, and boop! There she goes! We finally were able to get a little video of her doing it with the new Christmas camcorder.
And yes, getting evidence of her doing something on film is close to impossible. I swear, she can be doing (insert cute action or noise here) all day long at the top of her lungs, but pull out a camera of any kind-- phone, real camera, camcorder-- and she instantly stops what she was doing. So frustrating!! I think I'm going to need to hide nanny-cams around the house just to get photographic proof that my baby does things besides sleep and eat. :(
