    Thumbs up My clever little bunny!

    Beth rolled over today for the first time!!! Even better, I actually caught it on video. I will post the link when DH puts it on youtube!

    She was looking so cute during 'tummy time' yesterday that I thought I would tape her today so that family and friends in Oz could see how big she is getting. And wouldn?t you know it, about a minute in she rolled onto her back. I was so surprised that I almost dropped the video camera! She was surprised too but took it very calmly! According to my mum I was an early roller too, so brilliance obviously runs in the family! To test it wasn?t a fluke I put her back on her tummy a couple of times and she rolled over again each time. Then she cracked it with me and started fussing so I stopped trying to make her my performing monkey!

    She was too tired to do it again when DH got home from work but I loved showing him the videos i had taken.

    I hope everyone's bubs is letting them get some sleep. I feel so lucky (guilty almost) that Beth is such a good sleeper. She is doing 8 to 12 hour stints at night which is just wonderful. I usually wake to express around 5am if she hasn't woken for a feed.

    Hard to believe that she is nine weeks old. It has just flown by!!

    Hugs to all!

    Hi girls,

    jjj, sorry to hear jorja isn't sleeping so well, I hope it has improved. I can sympathise with you. Both of mine are up through the night.
    Good luck organising your wedding, it will be fun. It doesn't have to be stressful. I had a great time organising mine! Sooo long ago now though.....

    Lea, glad to hear the naming day and Nix's bday went well.
    I hoep the medicine is still working for gabriella and that your bf'ing is going good. Have you managed to sort out your problems?

    Erin, what a clever little chicken Beth is rolling already! Lucky you had the video camera out!
    I love your ticker pic too its so cute!

    Tasha, good luck with the camping I hope the crappy weather improves! You're brave taking a new born camping, LOL!! I thought I was doing well taking Liam to a friends place for the weekend!! I hope you have a good time.

    Well, we have had a lovely day, we went to Mt Annan Botanic gardens. It was really nice. A beautiful day, not too hot or cold. Lily had an absolute ball running around in all the free space, and there was a lovely little playground for her to play in. She had a great time with some other kids chasing her and slimbing on stuff she's allowed to climb on, LOL. Liam was really good and just slept most of the time.
    Ok gotta go, hope everyone has a great weekend.
