On the flip side

I may have mentioned Little One's loathing of 'tummy time'. She has become so adept at rolling from front to back that she no longer feels the need to voice her objections to being placed booty-up. Instead, She just instantly rolls Herself back over, and looks smug. My attempts at convincing her to roll ALL the way over have been met with cool distaste (which I think is quite rude considering the fact that Little One having the ability to travel will certainly benefit Her much more than it will me). So imagine my surprise when She did it all by Herself! Entranced by Her shoelaces, Little One rocked waaay onto Her side to reach them better. Usually She gets to that point, realizes where She's headed, and hits the breaks. But this day, She decided to go for it. She reached out...arched Her back...gave a little kick, and...YES! She was over! She spent about 30 seconds on Her tummy taking in the view and playing with a toy, and then thought, "wait...what am I doing?!" And flipped right back over. Oh well. She may never choose to repeat Her new trick, but at least I know that She can, if She wants to.
