I know it sounds downright silly, because in the grand scheme of things, it isn't that big of a deal. However, I feel so very blessed to get to be there with him when he did it. I pray I can be by his side through as many of his accomplishments as possible, to cheer him on and encourage him. On a related note, I also hope to be there by his side through as many of his failed attempts at things as possible, to cheer him on and encourage him. I swear that beautiful, wonderful, chunky little boy has saved my life many times over. He's my world.

Milestones!
I realize Xander has had many milestones. Learning to hold his head up, discovering his hands, focusing his eyes and following moving objects, learning to babble, etc. However, each of those is rather gradual. No finite day or time it happened. Well today, Xander rolled from his tummy to his back, TWICE! The first time I was so excited and clapped and cheered and told him how proud I was of him, but part of me worried it was just an accident. I put him back on his belly to see, and he did it again (to the same reaction from me, of course)! Unfortunately, the little guy really prefers being on his back, so I'm not sure how he'll learn to go from his back to tummy, but one milestone at a time!
