For several weeks now Charlie has been rolling over to his belly. He plays for a little while, but when a toy is out of his reach he gets very upset. He draws his knees up and tries to push himself across the floor like a seal sliding across ice. He has not quite figured out how to use his arms to push his head up. He is a smart boy though. He has figured out that if he pulls on the blanket the toy will move closer to his reach.
The boy wants to touch everything. He is discovering new things everyday. I just wish that he would learn to crawl so that he doesn't throw a fit everytime he wants to move to a new location. It is kind of funny to watch him do a break dancing spin in the floor though. He can roll to his side and use his feet to spin himself around. He does not quite get the resuts that he is looking for, but he does get a change of scenery every once in a while.
We are blessed to have such a happy child, but when he throws a fit, he throws a fit. He grunts and squeals and pushes his two little teeth out. He stiffens up his body and planks very well. He kicks and bangs on the floor as if it is going to help the situation. I think that he gets that from his momma.
I have tried to help him get his elbows in closer to his body instead of out in front of his head like Superman. The poor boy is going to have rug burn on his face if he keeps doing the seal slide. I will say that he is very persistent. He keeps trying and trying so I know that he will eventually figure it out, but for now Daddy and Mommy will just have to keep the toys in range and roll him to his back when he gets mad.
The only bad thing is that Charlie loves to be on his belly and he rolls right back over after you flip him. This child is going to make my hair fall out faster than it already is. That is okay though. I love him more than anything and I understand that it takes time and patience. Please Lord, just let him crawl already! I will deal with the chaos that comes with a mobile child at a later time.
