Grayson is finally rolling over onto his tummy!! Knowing how much he hated being on his stomach I was pretty certain he would never be motivated to roll over that direction and also would have bet money that he would be one of the kids that walked before he crawled. However on Friday he started rolling onto his stomach like it was the most natural thing in the world and has since been spending hours a day on his tummy!
This has made me VERY happy! Happier than I thought it would... however Grayson still doesn't seem happy... he rolls over onto his tummy... lays there looking around for a few minutes and then starts crying. At first I thought he couldn't figure out how to roll himself back over so I rolled him back to his back... and he immediately rolled back onto his stomach and would start fussing again... I went through this little routine a few times before just leaving him on his stomach to fuss. I was slightly devistated because everyone is always talking about how smart they think their baby is and I couldn't figure out why Grayson was being so slow about all this... I looked away for 30 seconds and when I turned back around I found this...

So obviously it wasn't that he couldn't roll himself back over. And that's when I figured it out... this kid wants to move!!! He rolls over onto his stomach and he grunts and pushes and tries soooo hard to get himself to move forward and he just can't do it. The poor boy is so frustrated that he just cries. :( I moved his arms army crawls style for him and he thought that was pretty cool... but I think not being able to do it himself only made him more frustrated in the end.
So here is my prediction... in one month he will be crawling... or at least army crawling everywhere he wants to go. I hope!! Because I'm not going to be able to deal with the constant fuss forever!
