One Good Turn

Vera surprised us last night. She rolled over for the first time! We were so proud of her. She'd been practising lifting up one leg to get some turning radius for the past week, and last night she finally did it. Twice.

For those not in the know, this is a major milestone for T18 babies. It shows that her spine is slowly strengthening and she's learning about the motion of her limbs and what they can do. What a great 11th month gift for us!
