Titus at 6 Months

Titus has been such a blessing. We can't believe he has already been in our family for six months. So for your 6 month birthday- 6 fun facts.

*You are still above normal when it comes to all your measurements. You weigh 18 lbs 12 oz and are 27 inches long. These put you in the 70th percentile and your head is in the 65th. We still can't determine your eye color, but we are leaning towards green/hazel/brown. To Mommy they look light brown/green in the middle and greyish blue around the outside.

*For the most part, you sleep well. Your nights are from about 7 pm to 6 am, but there are those night where you decide that 3:30 or 4:00 is a better time to wake and eat. You are not the best napper, but trying to keep up with two older brothers proves difficult to nap well. You do enjoy your afternoon nap that usually last from 2-3 hours. You do enjoy a pacifier when falling asleep and occasionally I will just put you down and you fall asleep. You are very stubborn when it comes to Daddy putting you down and he has enjoyed a few nights of you crying yourself to sleep.

*You are lazy or as the doctor says "low tone." Due to your slowness in rolling over and sitting up and Mommy's lack of giving you tummy time, you are in danger of baby physical therapy. Yep- better hit those milestones or you will have some work cut out for you. Right after your six month appointment we started working on building your muscles. Sorry for the spoiling!

*You started food a little while and you are doing alright. Slowly getting the eating thing down. You don't seem to enjoy the oat cereal much so maybe and introduction to veggies and fruits will do you some good.

*You have two wonderful brothers. Ezekiel can get you to giggle like crazy. Eli plants kisses on you like crazy. You love to watch them play and love it when they interact with you.

*You are my embracer. You constantly pull me close. You also love to put your hand on Mommy's face. It is such a special moment to feel your embrace. You also find Mommy hair hilarious and a wonderful thing to grab. You giggle when it moves and love to try to grab it with your hand.

Titus Dale you are so loved. You are such a blessing and wonderful part of our family. Your squishy check, contagious giggles, and charming smile melts Mommy and Daddy's hearts. We look forward to each moment we get to share with you and all the ways you will bless us. These last 6 months have been so great...can't wait to see what lays ahead.
