Overnight

That's how it happens.  One day your Baby is doing one thing and the next day she has added to her repertoire of tricks.  This is exactly what happened last night.

On Wednesday night I laid Kate in her crib to put her to bed.  She laid on her back, moved her head from side to side a little bit, and fell asleep on her back.

Last night, I laid Kate in her crib and she rolled...and rolled...and rolled.  From front to back and back to front.  There was no stopping her!  This was the first time we had seen her roll from front to back!  And she was definitely enjoying her new found freedom!  We sat there and watched her roll on the monitor until she fell asleep...on her belly.

While we were both extremely impressed with Kate's skills and extremely proud of her for perfecting her 360 degree roll, there was a part of me that was just a little bit sad because my Baby is growing further and further away from being my Baby and moving closer and closer toward being my Toddler.

Brian reminded me that Kate is not even crawling yet and that we still have plenty of more Baby moments and that we will have some absolutely amazing Toddler moments when the time is here.  Then I snapped out of it.  Thank goodness for Kate's Daddy.

Sometimes I really need a reality check.
