My first virus and rolling over


As reported today by Nanny Granny:

"At 8:14 am today, Sophie, unassisted rolled over toher stomach and pushed herself to the edge of her playmat while reaching to touch her sisters. Now she willbegin to show signs of canine genes and she will needa bone for teething. SHe is now flipping from back tofront and back again, rapidly!! Love, Gran"

I have been working very hard lately on this rolling over trick. I was so close for a couple of weeks now, but couldn't quite get all the way over. My progress was impeded Wednesday this week when I suddenly came down with a low grade fever, poor sleep, and generalized aches. Fortunately, I still had my voracious appetite and I wasn't vomiting. But I was in so much pain, moaning constantly for 7 hours, daddy brought me into his friends at the ER. Much like other young children daddy sees all the time, I got better as soon as I entered the ER. I smiled at the triage nurse, instantly melting her heart. They checked a urine sample (ouch!), which was normal. I am progessively better since.

Daddy left for Nebraska on Thurday AM, so he missed my full unassisted turn. But I'll keep practicing so that I could do it a bunch of times when he gets home!

Sophie,
How very special- you were waiting for Gran to be there to do your over the top trick. After all the two of you share a birthday (which is a very special bond)and a love for all things furry.
Ada can't wait to see what tricks you have to show me. The count down to Spring Creek camp continues.
