Videos of Branton Talking

Branton has started "talking" this past week. He started out by just moving his mouth but thinking he was talking. Now he actually "talks" but continues to move his mouth in the same way. Grandpa Oakley took the first video last Saturday. The second video is from yesterday. For the second video, just turn your head (or screen) sideways... Mommy didn't realize you couldn't turn the video camera like you can for pictures. :)

Pictures of Branton Sitting

6 months old

Branton had his six month appointment on Monday. Our big boy isn't as big as we thought. He is 25 inches long (9th percentile) and 15 lbs 10 (24th percentile) ounces. He is doing a lot of big boy things now though. He sits for long periods (several minutes instead of seconds). He rolls over both ways (and has for quite some time). He plays with toys and rolls to get to them. He eats cereal every night before bed. He has not eaten much babyfood because he doesn't really care whether or not he has it; he actually has only had peas and potatoes. He just recently started eating Baby Mum-Mum crackers. He holds his own bottle (and has for nearly a month). His favorite activities are still jumping in his jumperoo and playing with Brennan! He has taken a few backwards scoots but has only made one scoot forward so far. He also now enjoys talking (be sure to watch the video soon).
