All the things you can think

John has really impressive hand-eye skills.  He loves to grab, swat and pull toy to his mouth. 

The playroom has made room for John -- though we are always doing a sweep for small objects in his zones. 

And all his hard work with tummy time has paid off -- he can roll from his stomach to his back.  And since he really never wants to be on his tummy it  may be a while or just upon accident if he does back to front. 

Everyone getting in tummy time! 

This smile is for the promise of me putting away the camera!Ha!

Abigail dresses up John - my favorite is sticker dress up.

Walks and errands with Dad - he is healthy again and since we all missed him, we cannot get enough Daddy time!

More birthday partes for friends - Big slides, lots of movement and fun lead to

The first nap in a car since she was one!

John has outgrown his sink tub and is now taking baths in our bathtub.  This shot was right after his first bath in the big tub.  Abi helped bath him. 

This surprised look was right after he rolled over.  The second time --

Abigail's Hip Hop Cheer recital -- she participated.  Mama and Abi now like to do some of the dance moves at home together!

Recap for the busy week: 

1. Abigail gave up the pacifier  - thought this would be a big ordeal for her.  But she accepted it quiet easily.  She asks occasionally for it, but the loss of Lamb, Monkey Giraffe has been very low on the scale.  

2. Tub transition - John is out of the sink and into the bath tub.  I have been told by many, as soon as he is old enough to bath with Abigail, they will bond and play together and bed time/bath time routines will become much easier.  

3. Rolling over -- I was sweating this one.  John has his 4 month check up in two weeks and I have really been pushing to accomplish this milestone before the visit.  It is definitely harder to find time to put him on the ground when the other busy stomping, dancing, kicking feet abound and his reflux narrows the window of opportunity down considerable too.  Quite an accomplishment! 

4. Birthday parties, play dates, and friends -- since our party we have had 3 new party invites and several requests for play dates.  This is great for Abi -- she really thrives on friendship contacts.  So excited!
