Our First Milestone!!
Yes, I know it is not rocket science, and especially when she is already 6 months old, but Ashlynn rolled over yesterday. I have not seen it of course, but her baby sitter called to tell me that she did so 3 times. You see to many parents this is not a big deal by the third child. However, when you have one as spoiled as Ashlynn - it is major. You see, she has two older siblings that will not let her cry. And, she HATES to be on her stomach. I mean screams and sobs when you try it (I blame the Pediatricians, because they are the ones who say do not put them on their stomachs). My other two hated their backs, so when she liked sleeping on her back, I thought it was great. Little did I know that it would put her behind. When she went for her 4 month check-up, I was warned to put her on her stomach. However, she is the last one and so a little spoiled. (by me but mostly by Camon and Isabelle) We hold her as often as we can and when she cries we make her stop - whatever it takes. And so, I ignored the doctor. Well, then at her 6 month check-up Clint was told that if she was not rolling over soon, we would have to go see a specialist. So, he has made me do it (it is all daddy's fault Ashlynn). I cried the first night that I had to leave her laying there crying. I think it is pure meanness. However after the baby sitter and I (sometimes, I did - really) put her on her stomach for a week (not for the whole week, but for a few minutes at a time), she finally rolled over. At least Amy and Isabelle say that they saw her. Anyway, I am sure that a few months from now, I will be writing and telling you that she is into everything and I wish that she still just laid there. SO, for now I will just enjoy her stillness but can honestly tell the doctor next time that I see him that she rolled over (even if she never does it again)!!!! Boy will our lives be changing now!!!
