Rollin Rollin n Rollin

Atharv's strong neck and arm muscles allow him to practice rolling over toward one side to other side, a milestone that has amused us. He has adopted rolling as his primary mode of ground transportation for a while. He is continuing to gain new skills and shows interest in getting around and exploring his environment. Rolling over is so much fun for him. He just keeps rolling again and again. We can't just leave him unattended at any time.

At this age, Atharv not only tolerates attention from others, he often initiates it. He needs and craves lots of love and attention from us. Atharv is also learning that his behaviors, both, the ones we like and the ones we don't, engage us. He does anything and everything to get our attention. Right now almost everything he does is endearing. Atharv is beginning to expand his attention-getting repertoire to include more than crying. We also notice him wriggling, making noises, blowing etc.
