Rolling over

(Click here for video)

Roman started pushing up really high on his arms at the beginning of January and would sometimes roll over, often on accident, but this last week he has been doing it purposefully when he's trying to see something or get to a toy. I'm not sure he knows how to roll from his tummy to his back yet. He just kind of gets stuck and complains when he's been there long enough.
He's also getting up on his knees and starting to rock. I think he knows that he'd like to crawl, but still has no idea how to coordinate his arms and legs. He can scooch forward enough to grab a toy though.
A few weeks ago at breastfeeding support group, the babies were on the floor on their bellies and Roman seemed mesmerized with a red-headed boy named Max; he scooched himself forward by pulling himself with his arms and was able to move over toward him about 2 feet.
