I Wanna Crawl!!!

Tummy time is recommended by pediatricians because babies are to sleep on their backs. The purpose of tummy time is for the baby to develop their neck muscles and to help prepare for crawling. Here you will see one of Alyssa's first tummy times that we did last week. She is on a tummy time mat complete with a palm tree and giraffe. She is doing a great job of holding her head up and moving around. Just look at those legs....she sure seems to want to crawl. I'm not ready for that yet!!!!
