Evan's First "Tummy Time"

Evan had his first "tummy time" today.  If you're not familiar with the concept, tummy time provides a break for the back of babies' heads, and gives them a chance to strengthen their neck muscles to prepare them for crawling. It also helps them to get ready to push up, roll over, sit up, and eventually stand.

We weren't sure what to expect Evan to do, but after a few minutes, he acted like he wanted to roll over and pushed up on his side.  I'm sure it will be many more weeks before he can actually roll over, but it was exciting to see him try.

Here are couple of photos we snapped.  There are a few more on the photo site.
