Alex has only been trying to roll for the last 2 weeks or so, but like everything, has been watching intently to see how Tony does things. Alex learns by watching (like me), Tony learns by doing (like Striker). Yesterday we went to a Meet and Greet with our Multiples Club, and Alex watched our neighbors (8 month old twin girls) rolling around for quite some time. Apparently, that's all he needed!
Today, Alex rolled from back to belly (to his right). It took him awhile to finally get that bottom arm out, but he did it! (Please note Tony watching intently in the bottom corner...it shouldn't be long for him now...he's very competitive. After Alex started standing all the time while being held, Tony decided he wanted to do that too.)
Tony has started working on his crab walk...essentially crawling on his back. He's been scooting around his crib, and now does so when we're playing on the floor. He hasn't quite figured out that it can take him from point A to point B yet, but I have a feeling that's coming soon. Good thing I planned on spending Memorial Day weekend preparing our house for mobile twinfants.

Next -- sitting up! Seems amazing how, developmentally, the simplest things take a lot of work for babies.
Let me know if you need any pointers! :)
Way to go Alex! Come on Tony your next.
Once again so glad you had kids first so I will know what I need in 4 months for Kyle.
yay Alex.
Congrats!
Wanna hear something weird? Brooke has rolled from front to back over 10 times. The first two times I thought it was a fluke (cuz kids just don't do that at 2 months) but now I watch her and she is actually doing it. Too strange.
