Josie's On A ROLL!

Today, Josie hit a big milestone. We were downstairs playing, patiently waiting for Daddy to get home from his weekend away with the boys hunting, when Josie decided it was time to show Mommy some of her tricks. She was playing on her tummy enjoying some Saturday morning cartoons when she did it. She rolled over! She did it all by herself with no help or anything and the best part was she was happy when she did it. But it gets even better...I thought well hey I wonder if she will do it yet again so back on her belly she went. And within about 2 minutes she did it again. That is right she did not roll over just once today but twice within 5 minutes time. I was so ecstatic I could not contain myself. I was jumping up and down clapping and cheering Josie on. She thought I was funny and simply kept smiling at me.

I wish I would have been able to get it on video, believe me I tried it. She decided she no longer wanted to be on her belly or show me her tricks for a little while. Maybe later she will show Daddy her new tricks and I can get it on video then. I may not have it on video, but I was taking her picture playing on the floor when she rolled over so here are a few photos before and after she actually rolled over.

Brent is going to be so upset when he finds out that he missed this special moment when he could have been here to see it first hand. Oh well. Knowing Josie she probably will not roll over now again for a while. Weeks ago, she proved to us that she can laugh when she simply laughed at Daddy and a taco, but since has not laughed again. We make fools of ourselves all the time to get her to laugh. Me especially all day long, but no go. So, with her being so stubborn she probably won't show her new trick again for a while.

Way to go Josie!
