We've gone mobile!

Haha not totally but Lucy rolled over last week!! I laid her on her back and all of the sudden she was on her stomach! I almost couldn't believe she had actually done it! So of course, I rolled her back onto her back to see if it was a fluke or if she really did know how and lo and behold, she does!! This is a video of the third time she rolled...
Devin was at class so I had to video it to show it to him! I was SO excited! She can only roll from back to stomach on her own, she hasn't quite figured out how to get from her stomach to her back. It'll probably take some time since that's a little more difficult. Also she prefers to roll one direction, she can roll over her left side, but for some reason she can't do it as easily. It's pretty funny, I'll help her by rolling her to her left side, and she'll grunt and flex her stomach and swing her leg, but she just can't get over! So she'll give up and roll the other way! It cracks me up every time. Anyways, along with her wanting to be big syndrome, once she gets onto her belly her arms and legs go crazy! She looks like she could be swimming! She wants to move so badly but she hasn't figured it out (and even though I show her everyday, I don't mind if it takes her a couple more months to figure that one out :).
Speaking of crawling did I mention Lucy can RUN?! Check it out!

Oh sorry, I forgot to mention she can run with assistance...
We're wrapping up the semester! Last day of classes was yesterday! I am excited it's almost over but not too excited for summer. We found out that I qualified for spring and summer classes (a good and bad thing). Good because that means that I can take more classes, and bad because I get to take more classes. I'll be taking several through independent study (which the grants will cover! Yay!) but it means I'll have a full load. So wish me luck! I'm probably going to need it. Devin's teacher for his seminary class said that he will probably be invited back for the next class!! I can't remember if I already put this in a post but they want him to continue in the fall with the next course (he was planning on defering until he was closer to graduation so that teaching wouldn't get in the way of classes but that's not what the department has in mind). So he may be teaching sooner than we expected. Devin also got called to teach Sunday School for the 12 yr olds. He's pretty excited about it.
Devin's older brother Patrick, and his wife, Whitney, are headed out to South Carolina for a Summer Internship. We just said goodbye to Whitney and Alden(their little boy) this morning. They had been staying here for the past week and a half before heading out. Patrick will be joining them as soon as finals are over. It was SO fun to have them around and to get to see Lucy and Alden play. They're a funny pair. Alden is a very calm and relaxed baby, and Lucy doesn't know how to hold still (except when she's sleeping, but even then she can move a lot). Anyways, they had fun looking and smiling at each other. Because of Lucy's curiosity about everything we had to make sure she was at least an arms length away from Alden, so she wouldn't hurt him, or vis-a-versa. Well we will miss them while they're gone, but we're also Super excited to see how much Alden changes over the summer. And when they get back Lucy and Alden can really play (instead of just stare at each other :D ).
Well that's all for now. I'll update again soon! Hope this finds everyone well!
