Please Don't Feed the Animals

Most of you know that Branyon and I have been teaching Branna sign language so that she can communicate with us easier while her speech is developing. She can sign more than 50 words and is now starting to verbalize alot of the words.
However, over the last couple of weeks, she has really developed a language of her own and an imagination to go along with it. It's very humorous to hear her "babbling" as she's walking through the house or we're driving in the car. She definitely knows what she's saying, now it's up to Branyon and myself to decipher it!

Box Car

Branna and Daddy found a very fun toy: an empty pampers box! Branna loved pretending it was her car and sailing across the carpet in it. Her stuffed animals even got a ride!

(FYI: Because the video is lengthy --therefore large--, I had to do the full video in 3 pieces. I also, had to make the resolution lower on the last piece because of it's size.)

The Girl in the Yellow Hat

I'm not really sure what Branna was thinking about in this video... She's getting so silly! (Sorry about the background noise...)

Our Week With Family

Last week, my mom and brother came to stay with us for the week. Branna had a great time showing off for them and we all had a really good visit.
While they were here, Grandma Honey and Branna played "dress up" and talked on the phone:

Jess celebrated his 10th birthday with a homemade cake:

And Branna showed off her artistic side:
I'm so glad that we got to spend time with them before they start back to school and everyone's schedule gets busy again. We can't wait to see them again!

Catch Up

I have been so this summer about getting our blog updated. We've been so busy! Here's a few catchup pictures of the last month and a half...
