Bridget rolled over today!
Okay, so it's a pretty standard feat when it comes to babies. But when you're the mommy, and she's your first, it's something else. Especially when you weren't expecting it. Here we were, out on the patio and I had just pulled a few weeds. I glanced back over and Bridget was completing the back-to-tummy rollover. I was amazed! I was astounded! I was enchanted! And I called Al, told him, and ran and got my camera for the second-ever rollover that was Bridget's. It's below, but it's about 3 1/2 minutes long. She's now got it down to about 45 seconds, thank you very much. But I thought the second attempt was the more impressive video.
Three months yesterday, Bridget is weighing in at approximately 14 pounds. Al and I did the I-get-on-the-scale-with-her and then without her thing the other day, so that's why it's approximate. She's a bit taller, too, but I'm not quite sure how much because I don't know how they measure babies. Crown of head to heel, or to tiptoe? If tiptoe, she's grown a lot, if heel, a bit. But I haven't actually brought my ruler or tape measure for a while, so I'm not quite sure how much. We'll figure it out soon enough and get back to you.
Oh, and Al's already forgotten his daughter's birthday. He told his brother, Mike, that Bridget is "somewhere between three and a half and four months old" earlier this week, then got off the phone and asked me how old she was. "I couldn't think of when she was born," he said, "and couldn't figure it out." Eyeroll. That's my darling husband and his no-good, horrible memory for you!
Enjoy til next time (and I'm off to editing again starting tomorrow, so it might be about a week or two...),
Rhonda :)
