She doesn't sit or stay, but she CAN rollover!!!

Sometimes, diaper changes can be joyous occasions. Sometimes, the joy is felt by the baby, as her wet diaper is removed from her bottom. Other times, the parents feel the blissful relief from the ease of a cleanup of a #2. There are, of course, rare occasions where everyone feels the magic of a diaper change. This was the case in our house this past week, as Taylor decided it was time for her to show off her skills of rolling over onto her stomach. (I know, it's not quite "America's Got Talent" level, but I think we all know that there are some days where rolling over out of bed is THE most difficult task we've ever been faced with.) Unfortunately for Taylor and future life as a teenager, Daddy felt it was more important to capture the images on video and photo, instead of putting a diaper on her naked tush. Fortunately, no rugs were harmed (or messed on) during the taping of this milestone.
Taylor begins the roll over, using the classic leg over leg technique perfected by the Chinese in the 1996 Olympics.Almost there...
At this point, the roll is basically complete. The look on Taylor face is either that of self-satisfaction from completing a roll, or that of self-humiliation as she realized she is naked from the waste down.

That is AMAZING! Rolling from back to tummy is harder than tummy to back and she already has that down- gifted, I tell you! Maybe she can give Benny some pointers:)
