I really loved this article because I use the phrase "tummy time"also in my home!I have been putting my daughter on her tummy to build her muscles for a couple of weeks now and just noticed this week that she is able to roll over on her own!Khloe is just under 4 mths and I think she will be a really fast baby and walk early.
