Cause for Celebration
This is my favorite "big boy" outfit that I picked out for Owen before he was born. 6 months sized, and fitting better everyday!
We have two reasons to celebrate this fine Sunday. The first reason is that after a week of night-wakings and restless sleeping, Owen slept through his entire night...without needing a feeding or even needing to be soothed back to sleep. He slept from 8pm until 6:40am this morning. And his happy parents got 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep... A first since his birth!
When we peered into our little fellow's crib this morning, Owen was still asleep on his back. I got up to go to the bathroom, and when I returned, Chris said, "You've got to see this!" and we peered back into the crib to see Owen then lying on his TUMMY. This is the first complete rollover Owen had done. In the next hour, he successfully did it two more times, which I think means he mastered it. What an accomplished baby. Our baby reference books discuss babies rolling over at 5 months, and usually from tummy to back first, because it is easier to get leverage...
.
Chris just said, "This guy's going to give us a run for our money!" and I have no doubt he is right about that.

A run for your money is an excellent description for child rearing! Congratulations on getting some sleep. That tends to make the whole world look better!
We survived a week on Tybee Island - constant breezes, billowing clouds, sleeping in - even two bathrooms! We found great food, met some of Jessie's friends and enjoyed a Sand Gnats game ("A" league baseball) It was all great fun - then we come home to hotter'n hell temperatures! It was cooler in the South. 100 degrees expected high Wednesday - ugh!
Glad to see the great pictures. Keep up the good work.
Love
Mom
