Tytan's 6 & 7 Month Update

Unfortunately because of how sick everyone was over the last little while Tytan's six month pictures never happened. So I decided just to do a update of the last two months together.

This little man is such a blessing in our lives.  He is such a genuinely happy boy.  As long as the essentials are covered: food, sleep, dry bum, he is happy and smiley. He now has four teeth and I never really knew he was teething.  The only real sign is that his poor bum burns while he is teething.  He has learned to sit up pretty stable over the last month and a half.  He loves it so much. Its the freedom he dreamed of.  This has opened up so many fun avenues for him.  Toys have been a big thing for him lately.  Tytan loves to push them, watch what they do and chase them around.  I am afraid that he will be crawling before we know it because he is so interested in movement.  If there is something going on, Tytan wants to be right in on the fun.  Do not try to lay him on his back.  He will flip right over and start twisting himself around til he finds something to do or fusses loud enough to get set up.

Tytan is still a small tiny kid.  At his six month appointment we found out that he is defiantly starting to move up the percentage chart but not quickly.  He was still considered 2% under but was almost on the 2% line.  We are hoping that at his 9 month appointment he will finally make it back on the chart. He eats a ton of food though and is strong, happy and healthy.  He just gets to be our Tiny Tytan. At 7 months old he is still wearing 3 to 6 month clothing and we are in a debate on whether to try to move him up a size or not because his pants are looking shorter and his onsie jammies are getting tight but everything else still looks so big on him.  To say he is awkward to dress would be an understatement.  

Stats as of 6 months:
Height: 26 1/4 in           30%
Weight: 13 lbs 9.5 oz        under 2%
Head Measurements: 17 in       45%

Tytan still struggles with sleep.  Most of the time he will sleep through the night unless he is sick (which sadly most of our family has had colds for the past month or more) but his naps really can't be counted as naps.  We are trying to get him to take at least one long nap in the afternoon from around 12:30 to 3:00 but most days he only lasts til 2 or 2:30.  All his other naps are around 15 to 20 minutes long and then he is wide awake and wants to be moving again.  I am really hoping that I can break him of this soon because it makes it hard to get things done but at least he seems happy and content.

Tytan still loves his mommy and daddy a lot but has finally decided that not everyone is trying to steal him away from us.  He will let some people hold him for a while and has even started being good with Gammie and Poppy watching him while Blake and I are out.  He will still "red hulk" with most sudden movements and it is nearly impossible to get him up or down a set of stairs with out it happening.
