rolling over

So . . . Jonah started rolling over a few days ago.  Just from his stomach to his back, but he tries to roll over when he is the Baby Bjorn which is pretty funny.  I finally got a video of him in action:

Harper started rolling over at 10 weeks (click here for the video), so Jonah has her beat because he is currently 5 weeks old.

Harper and Jonah have been getting along pretty well.  Occasionally I see Harper jumping very close to him or trying to lay on top of him to give him a hug, but overall she loves him.  Whenever she wakes up in the morning she normally yells "Mommy" and "Daddy" so that we will come and get her, but she has started yelling, "Mommy, Daddy, baby."  It's pretty funny.
We do have a lot more tantrums going on from Harper.  We see a lot of this.
Jonah continues to be a pretty happy baby.  He sleeps a lot and loves the baby swing.
Yesterday my friend Morgan, who is wonderful, was kind enough to take Harper on a little field trip to the Kidspace museum in Pasadena.  Harper loved it.  I don't think she wanted to come home.  Morgan sent me this photo from her phone:
And finally, we are very excited that we have a new niece.  Tom's brother Brent and his wife Miranda had a new baby girl today.  Taylor is just 5 weeks younger than Jonah and Tom's sister Robyn is due to have a baby in a few months as well, so Jonah is going to have lots of cousins his age.  Hopefully we will get to meet baby Taylor soon :)

I knew it wouldn't be long till Jonah started rolling over. He was wanting to do that since the first day you brought him home from the hospital. He is wanting to catch up with his big sister.

I feel so sad that I will miss Jonah's blessing this Sunday. I hope it is a good day.

I can't believe he can roll over at 5 weeks?! What a talented baby (just like his mom and dad)!

Erica, your grandparents and I agree with Doris -- we wish we could be there with you on Sunday. It will be easy to remember Jonah's blessing date since it's his great-grandfather's birthday and the anniversary of his grandfather's and my baptism.

Love the video and pictures!
