Will gets an early start on reading

This last week William has been an angel. It's like something has clicked, some developmental hurdle is scaled and he and I have just been grooving along with a loose schedule that includes dog walks, naps in his crib, tummy time and regular infectious smiles.

All of a sudden he's a billion times more fun. He's interactive, responsive and dynamic. He responds to stimuli now- more than just breast milk, hot or cold. He has a ton of facial expressions and tries them out regularly. He enjoys looking at stuff and has even started to bat at things.
He still has not achieved a rollover and I struggle with watching him struggle and keeping myself from picking him up too soon to calm him. He's got to learn and the only way he can learn how to roll over is get lucky and conquer the motor controls. It's a challenge.

We're having a blast, this is yet another one of those moments that other mothers told me about that I sort of fluffed off but am now living fully.
