rollin', rollin', rollin'

Lucy now knows how to roll over. She is better at rolling from front-to-back than from back-to-front [and likes to practice every chance she gets]. When I put her in her crib for naps, I put her on her stomach. In the past, she'd be asleep in a matter of minutes [occasionally, with the help of a little back rub — but that was all]. This routine was working just fine, until . . .

Lucy figured out that sleep times occur when she's on her tummy.
Instead of quietly [or not so, as the case may be] laying on her stomach, she immediately rolls over as soon as I put her down. Nap time is no longer a quiet time, but now a new sort of play-time. I roll her over and she rolls back. I roll her over — she rolls back. I roll her over again — she rolls back . . . .

Yep, this sure is a fun game.
