Slowly but surely!

Well, Max has rolled over a few more times - he's slowly getting the hang of his new trick. I'll be honest, I don't think he is really interested in rolling over. He is quite happy laying in his bed watching his mobile. He squeals so loud at his little friends as they spin around. He rolled over from his tummy to his back for the first time last night. He was really happy to do that because he was finished having tummy time and wanted to see his mobile. His mean 'ole mom kept rolling him back to his stomach so as to encourage him to roll over again - he did not appreciate me doing that to him. I guess I just need to find some motivation for him. Today I watched him roll over from his back. He acted like it was no big deal and just easy as pie - until he got his leg caught in the slats of the bed. I'm not sure what to do about his legs. The doctor told us to get the bumpers out of his bed until he was stronger, so he wouldn't suffocate, but I kinda feel like he needs them for extra protection - I guess we will figure it out.
Yesterday, he started showing some sensitive tendencies. We were practicing all of our tricks in his bed and the top of his head barely grazed the slats on his bed. Well, it REALLY hurt his feelings because he started crying and would not stop unless I was cuddling him (It might have been my fault for over-reacting a little when it happened). If I tried to put him down, he just whined. For some reason, I thought it was so funny because there was NOTHING wrong with him. Nonetheless, I cuddled with him while I giggled. (You'll never get any complaints from me regarding snuggling with my baby!) He kinda did the same thing today while he played with a water bottle. He couldn't get the water bottle to do what he wanted so he started crying, well kinda. It was so funny and sad all at once. He got over it really fast. So, he might be a sensitive young man - isn't that what all the girls say they look for in a man? Ha!! Well here are just a few new pictures!

You can get breathable (mesh) bumpers! Maybe that will fix your jail bird!
