The flipping monster

Ever since Keston's learnt to flip, he's become such a handful.
First we must learn 2 important things about Keston:

1. He only knows how to flip from his back to his front and not the other way around.
2. He hates being on his front and refuses to lie down. He'd rather stay in push up position than to let his face touch the ground.

Keston the flipper flips every single moment of the day. His regular ongoing activity is
-Flip over to his tummy
-looks around and stays in push up position
-starts drooling abit
-struggles to stay in push up position
-arms become weak
-whine
-cry
-mummy or daddy quickly roll him back on his back
-IMMEDIATELY Flips over to his tummy again

and the whole cycle starts again. So you get the idea what we do all day!

For the past 3 mornings, we've been awakened by his yelp cos' the moment he woke up, he flipped and after staying up for abit, calls for help to be rolled over. Gone are the days of blissful sleep-ins while he self-entertains! Keston's great at self-entertaining. Most mornings he's up before we are but he'd quietly play by himself in his cot till it's time for milk. But now when I hear the yelp, I will nudge HW to go over to Keston's room. HW will then bring Kes over to our room and proceed to fall asleep. I will then be tasked to put Kes back to sleep.

See lah, I wanted him to flip..and now that he's flipping, it's giving me a headache :P
