Up until now, I could count the number of times I'd watched Gavin roll. It just wasn't his thing. Turns out he just needed the right motivation-- his pacifier. Three times in the last two days Tony and I have found Gavin in his crib on his tummy.
Today, on one of those occasions, Gavin was waking up from his nap and fussing just a bit. I entered his room to find him on his tummy, 180 degrees from where I'd left him, just a few inches from his pacifier. Did he fall asleep like that? Did he wake up and go searching for his pacifier? I don't know. But I do know (or have at least reasoned with my mommy intuition) that it's his pacifier that has brought about the new skill of rolling from back to front.
It's inevitable folks-- Gavin will soon be on the move. I'm still in the denial stage.
Solid Food update: After 2 and half weeks of "Rice Cereal Training", it appears that Gavin is now actually eating and swallowing his rice cereal. It took a bit of getting used to, especially in how to maneuver his tongue, but now that he seems to have gotten it, we can start adding to the menu.
Here are some fun photos taken in the last week or two.
We took a walk at Port Williams beach on Sequim Bay. It was COLD, but we had to get out, at least for a bit.

Wow, sis! What excitement lies in store for you once Gavin changes location on his own! Thanks for the update.
