how we roll!

Last night Isaac rolled over! Just shy of his 4-month birthday. I had put him down on his back, turned around for no more than 15 seconds, and when I looked back he was on his belly! I flipped him over and he did it 2 or 3 more times and had several more attempts last night, and more successful rolls today, just to prove to us that it wasn't a fluke. Way to go, little man!


Not to be completely outdone by her younger brother, Bethany was trying her best to roll over this morning. She was 99% of the way there a few times (just needed to tuck that left arm). Bethany is a pound bigger, a little stronger, and has been about a week ahead of Isaac in most things, so we were proud of the boy for getting this one first. But Isaac, she is hot on your heels!

It almost surprises me that they both want to roll to the left. It would have been cool if they went opposite directions because of how they were positioned in utero-- like water swirling down the drain in the northern hemisphere versus southern. Ah, the fun things to think about with twins.

  1. Hi Deb,
    I can't wait to see the video. Did he have a look of triumph, or did he just take this in stride too?

  2. Video is up! Apparently I just needed to do the same thing about 100 times for it to work. :)
