Nola rolled over. This major event almost went unnoticed. It’s a perfect example of the plight of the second born. With Ossian, we watched and waited and anticipated this event. When she finally did roll over, it was front page news in our little world- lots of fanfare, awe, and video were expended to mark the big moment and new era of mobility it unleashed. Sweet little sister Nola rolled over and I looked without registering the event and continued making play dough pasta with Ossian. Several bowls of red and purple noodles later, it was like I finally heard the announcement, “Nola has rolled over” and I said to Ossian, “Nola rolled over!”. Ossian’s big sister enthusiasm and squealing almost made up for my maternal blindness….

Nola has also been working on getting her feet into her mouth for some time now. This week, we are proud to report that she has succeeded. Go Nola!
