Exciting Turns at 11 Weeks

Sunday night was kind of an exciting night for Rooney. He has been sleeping on his side basically since he was born. He would be swaddled & would end up on his side alot. So whenever I would see him laying on his side I was not particularly surprised.

Sunday night, around 12:45 a.m., I went into Rooney's room because he was making noise like he needed something. It was dark in his room, he was on his side & I was trying to give him back his pacifier so I had one hand on his side & the other hand was trying to locate his mouth. Well, as I was trying to give him his pacifier he rolled onto his tummy. Of course I asked him "Did you just roll over"? He didn't verbally answer me but I think he was pretty jazzed too so he proceeded to do it again! He may have been showboating for his ol' mom but it worked because I was so excited that I had to tell Mike right away.

I'm sure Mike would have been as impressed & excited as I was when I came in the bedroom to tell him...if it wasn't 12:45 in the morning.

As an additional bonus for us Rooney decided to laugh out loud again last night. It was so beautiful (and during waking hours). It was also wonderful because he laughed in the nursery, when the baby monitor was on, so the whole house got to hear it.
