Ella is 7.5 months old now. She still has not really rolled over, but I definitely don't think it's because she can't. It's more because she just doesn't really care to. She is a very content little girl and will be happy to sit and play with whatever toy you give her. Now that she can sit up so well, she is also unhappy when lying down (whether it's tummy time or on her back). She just prefers to sit. She can also basically lean ALL THE WAY over (folding herself in half) and reach for something and then sit herself back up again. It is in this sort of position that she has begun to move around. By bouncing. She will put her hands in front of her and bounce her little bottom and move around that way- backwards. She is really getting off the ground now, and I'm afraid she might end in a face plant one day soon.

connor never rolled over...and now that i think about it, i have never seen him do it and he is 4 1/2...is that a bad thing??
Lol, Jenny. My Ruby was JUST like Ella. She wasn't content though. She sat up right at six months and then didn't really do anything else until she crawled at 14 months. She didn't walk until 19 months. Imagine sending your crawling kid off to nursery with a bunch of kids running circles around her! It isn't fun to have an eteranl baby though. Our doc referred her at 6 mos for PT because she wanted to see her strengthen her upper body. Even with regulary PT, she took forever to do anything. The PT and I concluded when she finally walked, that it was a choice she had to make and she wasn't interested until then. Good for you for knowing that it is her personality.
Wow, she totally gets air on those bounces! Maybe she'll be a gymnast.
this is the funniest thing ever! she is so cute, i want to squeeze her rightnow! :( miss you all!!!
