17 months old

It's hard to believe that our little Macker is growing up so fast. He is now 17 months old. He weighed about 20 1/2 pounds last time he went to the doctor, and he was 29 1/2 inches long. He has 8 teeth (and he's a biter...I have bruises on my shoulder to prove it!!) He started taking steps about 2 weeks ago. He still likes to crawl because he is faster at it, and he loves keeping up with Emma. He loves to swim in his wading pool, and he likes just about any type of table food you put in front of him. His favorite snacks are fruit puffs, fruit loops, and graham crackers. He isn't much of a juice drinker, but he does like the Gerber yogurt juices. We tried weening him off the bottle, but he just isn't ready yet. He just figured out how to tip the bottle to get more out of it, so that's still a little hard with the sippy cup. He's still wearing 12 months clothes, but he's growing...Hard to believe he was just a 2 1/2 pounder when he was born!!!
