Tummy Time

Today, Amelie rolled over from her front to her back! I think it was mostly just a happy accident, but still, she's quite advanced ;)

Tummy time is not her favorite time of day, so I thought I'd make it a little more appealing to her by combining it with naked time, and here's a video. Look at her try to crawl away. (She scooted from the middle of the blanket to the edge by the end.)

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. We didn't do anything too terribly exciting, but Sam did fix us some French toast for breakfast (that's a little bit backwards, but I'll take it ;)

The next two big pieces of news don't have photographic documentation, but Amelie keeps growing and changing all the time. She's now sucking on her hand to comfort herself sometimes and also cooing when she's happy.

Aunt Holly's been over this week, helping out and changing lots of diapers.

Here's a short video of Amelie on her play mat (sorry that the video quality is not great). I was hoping to get her really cooing, but maybe I'll catch it next time.


And finally, for Father's day, one more of Grandpa Buffaloe holding the baby.

Bath Time

Amelie is three weeks old today, and she had her first bath last night (we didn't do this sooner because she had a remarkably tenacious umbilical cord). Despite the photographic evidence, she really didn’t seem to mind the bath all that much.






All clean!

Hiccups!

Here's a video from yesterday. Amelie had the hiccups quite a bit in utero, as well.

2 Weeks!

Today, Amelie is two weeks old and she had a check-up at the doctor's office today. We found out that she now weighs 7 pounds 8 ounces (which is 5 ounces more than on Tuesday and 3 ounces more than she weighed when she was born).

She really likes to play on her changing table and look out the window:


Sam went to work on Tuesday, hence the shirt and tie.


Oh, and here's a picture where her hair looks red :)
