Earlier today Elias said to me, “I want to do some tummy time.” I asked him if he wanted Simon to join him, and he said yes. I set Simon up on the boppy pillow, and told Elias to go for it. Elias ran and got a bunch of toys to set down for Simon to look at. Then he plopped himself down on his tummy and started showing the toys to Simon. He started with an elephant and said, “Look Simon, the elephant has a trunk.” (And he pointed to the trunk). It was so cute…especially after Elias’ initial hesitation in interacting with Simon.
At the first sign of Simon’s distress, though, Elias backed up a bit and said, “Should Mommy do tummy time too?” I snapped one last picture, and then joined my boys for some fun tummy time play.
Just an aside…I love the look Simon is giving Elias in this picture. I think it’s cute that he is looking at his big brother…but if you click on it to see the expression it’s hilarious!
