These photos were shamelessly stolen from Aunt Holly's facebook page. I'm guessing she took them when she babysat 2 weeks ago. Snow pants!
I wonder what she's concentrating on with her tongue out like that?
And a big thank-you to everyone who made her warm outfit possible! Nana Jana for the bear hat, Grandma Mary Beth for the snazzy shoes, and Aunt Lana for the blue fuzzy jacket.
In an attempt to restrain myself from blabbing on and on about the rugrats, I've started a blog to upload photos and videos and the occasional story for your internet browsing pleasure.

Update
Update
I just went on Amazon.com, and found that a replacement camera cord is only $4, so I’ve finally ordered a new one. (I know that means that sometime tomorrow or the next day I’m surely going to find ours stuffed somewhere in a cabinet or hamper by Amelie.)
In the meantime, I thought the BabyBuffaloe blog readers were due for a written update at least.
Amelie knows a bunch of different body parts. She likes to point them out on herself, her doll, Mickey Mouse, her bear, her baby, the dog, and us. She knows:
• Eye
• Mouth
• Ear
• Hair
• Belly Button
• Nose
• Chin
• Chest
• Knee
• Foot
• Hand
• Butt
• Fingers (this is the one we’re learning right now)
She’s also started potty training while she’s at home (she’s still in diapers at daycare for now). She’s gone dozens of times on the froggy potty and has recently started sitting on the big commode. Mostly, we’re learning to time it just right, but I think it’s still helping. She likes to make the finger motions for “Itsy Bitsy Spider” and sing the first part of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat” while we’re all hanging out in the bathroom.
In other news, I’m finishing up the second week of my semester, still teaching at MACC in Columbia during the day and at Columbia College in Jefferson City two nights a week. Amelie goes to daycare from 8:00am to 12:30 each day, and then either my sister or my friend Shauna watches her in the gap between when I have to leave those two evenings a week and when Sam gets home from work. Sam’s enjoying his job arguing appeals for the state department of revenue (drunk driving cases). He also has to commute, but he can ride with four other friends from law school.
Hopefully, there will be picture updates within the week!

Tire Swing
Remember when Grandma & Grandpa went house-hunting? Well, the babies also found a tire swing and much cuteness ensued.
Aunt Barb helps out :)
Two cousins are better than one!

House Hunting
Grandma and Grandpa Buffaloe are house-hunting in Columbia! Amelie came along to give her valued input.
One of the houses had a cabinet under the stairs.
First, you put Grandpa in.
Then you close one door.
And the other.
Ta Da!
