Swim Time

Cassidee had a very busy day yesterday. Not only was it the first time she rolled over, but it was also her very first time to go swimming in a pool. We went over to the Bortnem's house, put her suit on her, and slathered her up with SPF 55! She was a little unsure when we first got in the water. She never cried, but I know she was wondering why I was in the "bath tub" with her. She eventually figured out how to kick her legs. She splashed with her hands one time, but the water got on her face. She looked at me like I had done it to her! She had more fun just watching Cade splash around. He really knows what he is doing in the water. (I wish I had gotten a picture of him as well) We stayed in the water about 20 minutes before she got a little bored. Overall I think she loved the experience and I can't wait to get her in the pool again!

We're on a roll....

Jeremy thinks it is more of a flop, but Cassidee actually rolled over for the first time yesterday! (tummy to back) As mentioned, she is not a big fan of laying on her tummy. I put her in her crib and put a mirror in front of her. She actually cracks up for a while and tries to grab the mirror. I think in the middle of one of her grabs was when she lost her balance and rolled over. She had a completely shocked look on her face, but when I put her up on her tummy again she rolled over again. Jeremy thought it was just a flop because she would land on her side and just lay there. Then he saw how she could keep turning and end up on her back. I guess by the time she is rolling from back to tummy I will really need to do something about my floors. Yesterday I walked by a quarter and a penny sitting on the floor by the couch. I didn't think anything of it....we'll go get them next time we need change! But I guess I'll have to be more aware with a baby rolling around. Hopefully I'll have a month or so to get my act together!!!

This is my first time to do this sort of thing. Some people who don't get to see baby Cassidee very often thought I should create a blog and post some pictures of her for them to see. They must not realize how time consuming this is.....and please, like I can figure out how to put a picture on this thing......
Anyway, if I do figure out the picture thing then there will be a picture of Cassidee on her tummy. She does not like to be on her tummy so she tends to "talk" rather loudly at me. We are working on the rolling over thing. She almost has it....any day now....
