Thor Learns to Roll Over

Posted 04-09-2009 at 11:07 PM by QuickSilver

The title pretty much says it all. Last night, after weeks upon weeks of fruitless attempts, Thor finally rolled over all on his own!

I really love teaching Thor tricks. It's super neat to see the light bulb go off when he finally gets it.

I posted this to a training thread, but this trick was so arduous that I want to save it here. Next stop: Bang!

I will be picking Ellie up in about 20 hours (around 7:30 pm on Thursday)and I am a nervous wreck! I feel like I am about to give birth all over again!

I just wanted to take this time to thank all of you that have been productively advising me on how to care for her and for sending such warm well wishes!
