Olive Rolls Over


Today Olive rolled from front to back. She is really alert and keen to move. She is starting to really want to mouth objects now...gives your fingers a good chew when they are available. But she doesn't really have enough control of her hands and arms to bring toys to her face. She has been swatting and batting at toys for weeks now but still isn't reaching out to grab things. Shouldn't be too long at this rate!

She still has a really strong suckle reflex and loves to settle herself to sleep by suckling. She's showing a lot of interest in her soft toys especially 'Palsy Panda' and I think she'll adopt something as a comforter soon but, again, she is just lacking the arm control to grab her toy and bring it to her face. She keeps inadvertently pushing them away from her. Bit of a worry her pulling soft toys onto her face when she's in her crib anyway I suppose. I might try to see if I can find a nice light piece of muslin or fabric with a contrasty pattern on it instead.

Wow, right now she is really trying to roll from her back to her front. This big baby is going to be on the move early I think.
