Zoey and Her Never Ending Battle with Gravity

Hello all! It's been an exciting day!

As you can see from the picture, she is getting much better with laying on her stomach. She doesn't have it down yet, but she's getting there.

I bet you are saying, "So what is exciting about that?" Well, i'll tell you. I didn't see it, but Abbey saw Zoey for the first time roll over from her stomach to her back!!! This is great news. The problem she is having is sleeping on her own. If we put her in her crib on her back she doesn't stay asleep. (We still haven't gotten to the point where she can fall asleep on her own yet.) So the only way we can get her to nap in her crib is by putting herself on her stomach. She'll sleep anywhere from 5 minutes to 2 hours. She wakes up crying at that point. If she sleeps for 2 hours then I will gladly pick her up. But if she only sleeps for say 20 minutes then I want her to fall back asleep. Unfortunately she never does. I am hoping that if she can roll over that maybe she will be able to get more comfortable and then fall back asleep on her own. I was really excited when Abbey called me at work to tell me the news. You know what this means, right? She's growing up...sad.
