Currently Samantha is working on several developmental milestones, one of them being tummy time. She does tummy time for just a few minutes several times a day to help build her neck muscles and develop the skill of lifting her upper body off the floor. She started out buy only being able to be on her tummy for maybe a minute before she felt the entire exercise was just unnecessary and wanted to be picked up. Today, however, she stayed on her tummy for several minutes and was able to turn her head side to side on her own (usually I sit on either side of her and prompt her). She still doesn't lift her body/head much off the floor but the side to side movement is exciting!
