Twice. It was fantastic. Actually, I did it for the first time on Tuesday, but Mama wasn&#8217;t paying attention. <!--more--> I was happy on the bedspread taking some &#8220;tummy time,&#8221; she turned her back for a tick, and that&#8217;s when I got up some speed &#8212; and rolled it, baby! When she turned around, she realized she had missed something. Boy, did she ever! That was a good one.<\/p>\n<p>Then yesterday, I added the back-to-front roll to my repertoire. I am so impressive, if I do say so myself. But that one was harder, so I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;ll be doing it again very soon. I&#8217;m honest enough to admit there was at least a little luck involved in getting all the moving parts to go at the right time.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhoo, now that I&#8217;ve got that rolling thing out of the way, I&#8217;m taking a breather. No more rolls for awhile. The &rsquo;rents keep trying to get me to do it again, but a girl&#8217;s gotta have her standards. I am not a performing monkey.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image494\" src=\"http:\/\/boydsnest.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/09\/img_2778.JPG\" alt=\"Mmm... feet...\" class=\"alignright\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Speaking of monkeys, I have been rocking out with some wild contortionist antics these days. It&#8217;s all about my feet. I just love them. I want to grab them and chew on them all day long. So satisfying. (You&#8217;re all just jealous because you can&#8217;t do it anymore.) Mamacita and I sometimes have this conversation: &#8220;Lucy, why are your socks all wet?&#8221; &#8220;Oh, &rsquo;cause I&#8217;ve been licking them, Mama.&#8221; &#8220;Oh, okay, baby.&#8221; I especially enjoy putting my feet behind my ears when I&#8217;m getting my diaper changed. Feels good to air everything out, I must say!<\/p>\n<p>p{color:gray}. Photo: &#8220;Hmm, what are those down there? Oh, feet! I _love_ feet! Must&#8230; grab&#8230; feet&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also been really enjoying my hands. This is rather embarrassing, but I didn&#8217;t really understand that they were _both_ connected to my body until just this week. I&#8217;m really having a blast practicing my hand-grabbing-hand technique. Next week, Papa and I are going to work on throwing the curve ball.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, it&#8217;s pretty much same old, same old around here: eating, sleeping, watching cars. Mamacita&#8217;s been working up some pretty sweet games for us to play. Like this one, she sort of swing me back and forth saying, &#8220;La la la la.&#8221; It&#8217;s a riot! She looks really weird doing it, so I have to laugh. It&#8217;s totally &#8220;the milk.&#8221; (Help me out here, I&#8217;m trying to launch some new baby-slang, and I really like this one. What&#8217;s better than milk? Ding ding ding! That is _correct!_ Nothing! You can also use it as a normal adjective: &#8220;Mmmm, this swing is soooo milky.&#8221;)<\/p>\n<p>Yo ho ho, I gotta buzz. Today&#8217;s Daddy-o&#8217;s _anniversaire_ (as they say in France) and I&#8217;m helping Mama out with the par-tay. Can you believe he is forty? With that baby face, I wouldn&#8217;t put him a day over six months.<\/p>\n<p>peaceout,<br \/>\nLulu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, yes, the rumor is true: I rolled over the other day.
