The dreaded "T" time


Olivia HATES tummy time! I know that hate is a strong word but how she feels about the whole scenario is definitely more than a strong dislike. We all slept on our tummy's when we were babies but now a days it is all about the "BACK to sleep" campaign. The thinking now is that babies that sleep on their stomachs are at a higher risk of SIDS. But they still need to build up the strength in their arms so that they can roll over, crawl and eventually pull up to standing. Every time I put her on her stomach she grunts, groans and is just generally miserable. She has definitely gotten better about it and can now last almost one full minute before the protesting begins. I tried to get some cute pics this past weekend while we were in a "training session" but this is the only one I got before she freaked. I am thinking that it is a foreshadowing of hating the gym... just like her mom. Oh and did I mention she drools a lot too. What is that a foreshadowing of???
