Rock & ROLL!

Ash learned to roll over! He managed his first unassisted flip on Thursday. Oddly, he goes back-to-front but hasn't learned front-to-back. (I'm told by those more educated in these issues that front-to-back is more commonly done first.)

Here's a pic of him on his stomach the first time he flipped!

Since then he's perfected the technique. It goes something like this:

Step 1: Lay flat on back, stretch out, think
Step 2: Kick legs and flail arms. Dunno why, it seems to help. (If it ain't broke . . .)

Step 3: Pull legs toward chest, and roll onto right side.
Step 4: Get sufficient momentum, flip to stomach, and then look around like a proud (and slightly goofy) kid.
