Evan the roller

Evan will be 10 months on Friday and he still isn't crawling yet. He rolls everywhere he wants to go. The other night he rolled into the bottom of his ExerSaucer. There is a big lip at the bottom and some pegs that stick up, so he had some obstacles to overcome. He doesn't like spending too much time sitting in this ExerSaucer, but hanging out at the bottom gives you some new perspective. He looks pretty happy. I had to help him get out of there once he was done with that adventure.
Then he continued to roll over toward the kitchen. He managed to get his legs under a bar stool. He wasn't really able to get himself out of this one either and I had to help him out once again.
Then he was a very tired boy and went to sleep! He did a very funny thing last night:-) I put him down about 7:10 and went in his room to check on him about 8:00 and he was sitting up. This freaked me out! We had the baby monitor on and never heard a word out of him. When I noticed he wasn't really playing, but just sitting there I figured out that he was sleeping. I called Eric in the room to check it out. We were cracking up as Evan bobbed his body back and forward trying to sleep as he was sitting up. He just started sitting up in his crib last week. I guess he hasn't really figured out how to lay back down again. We thought it was very funny that he didn't make a sound and was so tired he just fell asleep. I laid him back down and he opened his eyes for a second looking confused and fell right to sleep. We got out the video camera, so hopefully we'll get that posted soon.
The poor little guy is getting his top two front teeth. Last night the gums were bleeding. When I brush his teeth now he protests when I try to do the top ones, so I skip it and just do the bottom ones.
