Tummy Time - Trials and Tribulations


Try as she might, Shelby just isn't taking to tummy time as we hope.  Today however, we made some progress!   Her neck has been getting stronger and she was able to hold her head up for a minute or two.    An exciting milestone.  And then she resorted to burying her face in the mat and screaming, and screaming.

It was interesting though tonight as we visited Shelby's friend Harry.  He's just a week or so younger but they have such different skills and personalities.  Shelby sleeps through the night, Harry, not so much.  Shelby sucks her thumb while Harry likes the pacifier.  Harry is rather content on his tummy and has a lot more strength in his neck.  But it appears that Shelby has a little sharper visual acuity.
