Sweet New Trick

Lately Jase has been so close to rolling over, so every time Mike and I put him on his tummy, we watch closely to see if he'll be able to do it.  On Saturday, Jase and I were watching TV with my younger sister when I decided to see if he would roll over this time.  I put him on his belly, with his arms propping him up.  He spit up a little bit, so I grabbed a burp cloth, wiped it up, and turned around to put the cloth back into the diaper bag.  Bailey says, "Did he just roll over, or did you knock him over?"  I turn around to see Jase on his back, with a wide grin on his face.  I started crying.  I can't believe I missed it!  I swear I didn't touch him, so he must have rolled over for the first time.  I was turned around for only a second, and he decides it's the perfect time to learn a new trick?!  I totally got ripped off with that one.  Yesterday Mike and I managed to get him to roll over a couple of times, so we both got to see it for the "first" time.

Needless to say, I'm completely disappointed that he rolled over while my back was turned, but it's a lot of fun to see him doing something new.  Of course, we're going to have to keep an even closer eye on him now that he's at least a little mobile, and I'm sure that rolling from back to front can't be too far behind.  He's getting so big!  He has certainly developed his own little personality, and I can't believe that he'll be four months old on Wednesday!

And now, for your viewing pleasure: Jase rolling over (for the fourth time).

Bragging Rights

I've decided I'm probably posting too much stuff about Jase on Facebook.  But I can't help it, a mother is supposed to brag, right?  Since I created this blog just to brag about my baby, here it is:

JASE SLEPT FOR 12! HOURS LAST NIGHT!!!!

Jase was officially asleep in his crib at 9:30 last night, and he didn't wake up again until 9:22 this morning.  So he was 8 minutes off, I'm calling it close enough and celebrating!  He is one amazing little boy.  He used to wake up around 5 for a feeding, and then go back to sleep until 8ish.  But out of the past 8 days, he's skipped his 5:00 feeding on 6 of them.  I'm liking this new routine!  It's awesome.  But.  I'm not counting on it yet, as I've stated before, 2 steps forward and 1 step back.  

Here's what he looked like when he woke up this morning:
Good morning, Mom!
So, from our extremely well rested family to yours, have a great day!
