Milestone!

He did it! Evan rolled over for the first time today. I have mixed emotions about this. Yes, it's absolutely wonderful that he finally rolled over. But, Daddy missed it. I wished we could have witnessed this first milestone together. I took pictures and ran to get the video camera. Of course, Evan didn't roll again and just looked at the camcorder.

Here's what happened: I laid Evan on the bed so I could change my shirt as he decorated it with a fair amount of spit-up. He was on his back and, like always, rolled to his left side. For the past few weeks, he'd do this but his left arm would be in the way, and he'd just roll back. Well, maybe it was the bunched up comforter that assisted him, but he used his legs to prop his body up and pop! Out comes his left arm. He even turned his head 180 degrees to look at me. I was amazed and squealed with delight. That made Daisy very excited and she wanted to play with Evan even more. I sure wished Daddy could have seen it...

Here is Evan right after rolling over (not the clearest picture as I snapped it very quickly to capture the moment!)...

Big sister Daisy was excited for her little brother and wanted to play a lot!

The start of this Mother's Day weekend is going pretty well. What could be a greater present than your little baby accomplishing a milestone right in front of your eyes! Daddy, hurry home!
