Hidden Potential

Today I put Jack down on the floor for some play time. I placed him on his belly, and he immediately rolled over. I sighed, happily and proudly, then put Jack back on his belly. He had a grand time playing on his belly, and actually almost started turning himself in a circular motion to be able to see what he was trying to look at. He never got tired or laid his head down. I picked him up for a minute or two to give him a break, and put him down again. He rolled over again! So it definitely wasn't a one-time thing. He can really do it! Yeah, Jack! Now I just have to keep myself from overprotecting him, and let him get down on the floor and do his thing! I mean, we've got to get practice in for his 3 month portraits!
