Keep Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'
We always give Xander at least 30 minutes a day of tummy time so he can work on his neck muscles, even though he hates being on his tummy. Well yesterday I put him on his tummy and he actually kinda liked it. He started moving quite a bit and then he pushed his torso up on one side. His left side was up in the air and I thought he was going to turn over, but then he went back to his tummy, then he pushed off on his left side again and then kicked the ground and rolled over on his back. We could not believe that he had rolled over. We congratulated him and then tried to see if he would do it again. We put him on his tummy again and he just rolled over to the right side. It was so exciting. Later that night we tried video tapping him to prove it but he is a little shy. We are still trying to get him to roll over so hopefully we can post that soon.

Baby Recliner
Our good friends from Lubbock sent us a picture of their cute little boy watching tv in a baby recliner. We have searched for a couple of weeks to find one for Xander and finally found one. It helps kids to be able to sit up quicker and he likes it a lot. Either that or it helps kids quickly learn what the word lazy means.
Random Comment
So, I just realized that the picture of Xander in the tux makes him look so big. We took both of those pictures on his blessing day and he looks really small in one and looks really big in the other, oh well. So I was just thinking of some things today and thought I would ask everyones opinion. Does it seem like blogs are becoming a popularity thing? I click on someones blog and they have like 20 friends attatched to their blog. How do you get permission to add someones name to your blog, do you do it without asking?
Another comment, I realized what my new pet peeve is today. My old pet peeve was people dressing pets up in humans clothing, which is really weird, (KIM). But today I was in the bathroom and realized my new pet peeve is when people talk on the cell phone while in the bathroom, especially while using the restroom. I try to flush and make as many obvious noises while I am in there. SO people, stop talking on the cell phone while using the restroom. We are a society of multi taskers but that is taking it to the extreme.

Stayin' Alive
When my parents came for Xanders blessing she brought along another blessing outfit, just in case my old one did not fit. It was a mini tuxedo, with a bow tie, ruffles, cumberbund and tails. We could not resist putting him in it and only wish that it could be a nice pale blue color. (The pose was not staged at all, he just has dancing in his blood.) I just wish that Codi still had a prom dress so that they could have a picture together.
Xander's Blessing
Today we blessed Xander and my whole family was able to come and see the blessing. We were really happy that my mom kept my outfit that I was blessed almost 24 years ago, and so excited that is actually fit Xander. He was really good during the prayer and listened attentively. We got really lucky to have a kid who keeps quiet during church, knock on wood.
