180s

Emilio is able to maneuver himself 180-degrees while on his back. I put him down one way & before I know it he's facing a totally different direction. It sure is fun to see his motor skills developing.

He just loves to be in his play gym. Kicking, grabbing at the toys & doing180s.

For some reason whenever my kids see me with the camera they totally stop whatever they were doing that I wanted to get on video. Videoing from a distance without being seen seems to be my only hope. If that doesn't work then my next step might have to be camouflage.

The other day Annie brought up the inflatable bouncer.
It's always a special treat since we don't have the space to keep it up all the time.
After over a year of gymnastics classes, Lucia was doing front rolls (somersaults) left and right. She's a real pro!

Foward March

Emilio is now officially able to forward face in the moby. Hooray for head control!
Forward facing in the saddle too.
Once we got Cloud 9 we switched Lucia's car seat around to forward facing.
New car, seat turned around, all this change got to be a little too much for this little girl.
Though after her first forward facing ride she realized all the good stuff she had been missing. Lucia had a great view and enjoyed pointing out all the cars, trucks, and buses on the journey.
Emilio also began sitting up in the bumbo. Another milestone thanks to head control. Hooray!
How great it is to not always see the world horizontally.
Lucia & Emilio playing pat-a-cake.
