The Good, the Bad and the Uh-oh

Carson & Adrianna by the tree on Christmas Day

Christmas is over.  What a great couple days with family!  Carson was unfortunately on the fussy side - between getting in his pesky 2 year molars and over stimulation from the festivities, tears were a'plenty.

But over the last few days, we've noticed Carson trying to roll from his back to his tummy, towards the left side.  His left arm gets caught under him so he can't go completely over, but he's as 'over' as possible with a stuck arm.  He really uses his entire body now to make the motion - legs, hips, pelvis and head which adds to the 'awesomeness' of him doing it.  He's been able to 'struggle' to roll from his belly to back from quite some time - so this is the first time we've really seen him purposefully trying to roll from back to tummy.

That's the Good.

Happy Boy on Christmas Eve

The Bad.... we have grow accustomed to propping Carson up on our couch.  He typically sits in the corner of the couch or on top of the crack between two cushions.  Today the couch and the rolling collided... we didn't see it happen but one minute he was sitting like normal, and the next minute he was on the ground.

THANKFULLY he let out a couple cries but then was fine.  He was more startled then hurt.  For the life of us, neither Kevin or I can figure out how he ended up on the ground, on the OTHER end of the couch from where he was sitting.  It'll always be a mystery.

Regardless, now that we've had this 'uh oh' - it means no more sitting on the couch by himself.  Bummer as its helpful when we are trying to get ready to leave somewhere or when he's eating a snack, but so it is.  So thankful we learned this lesson without injury.

Very excited to see rolling is just around the corner  :)  Just no more rolling from the couch  ;)
