17 Months!

What an incredible stage of life this is. He's constantly learning, and he shows me at least one new skill a week. He's all about mimicking the sounds/words that I make, and he's really focusing on his fine motor skills. I am in constant amazement on how much he is soaking it. Not to mention, he's just really really fun now. It's so amazing to be able to just watch him play, knowing that he doesn't need to me to watch his every step anymore. He's getting so old, and there is nothing left of a baby in him.

17 month stats:

• about 22 lbs 6 oz and 32 inches, I'd guess
• wearing 12-18 month clothes
• consistently sleeping about 9-7ish with about a 1.5-2 hour nap each day
• 8 teeth! The second molar just popped through TODAY. There are three more teeth coming along.
• uses a fork and a spoon all of the time and using a bib less times than he is. He can even do soup with a spoon!
• can jump off of something (if it's low) and land on his feet
• hangs on the monkey bars for a good 30 seconds or so
• Favorite food: raisins! 
• Favorite activity: running like a fool around his table. Constantly. Preferably with Coco, our dog.
