Landon is a super strong guy. He started rolling from his tummy to back in late May — before he was even supposed to be born! It was likely an accident then, but by now it’s pretty intentional and can make tummy time difficult.

His grip, which his occupational therapist says is still a reflex, is nevertheless firm. Today I bent down to pick him up from the floor and he grabbed a chunk of my hair and held onto it so hard I was actually stuck bent over until I could convince him to let it go. Lexi wasted no time coming over to lick my face. Although it’s sweet, if you’ve ever smelled her breath you know it can nearly knock you out.

Landon pushes against us with his feet and arms and it’s been fun to feel how it gets stronger and more coordinated each week.
