Joey: 17 Months

At 17 months, Joey is still hanging right around that 20 pound mark. Next month - an accurate weight from the pediatrician's office, along with a height update.
 
Joey is quite the little talker! He's starting to mimic us more and more. He says Elmo, bath, night-night, bye bye, hi, car, outside, kitty, dog, mommy, da-da, thank you, ball, no, touch down and so much more.
 
He is pulling up a lot and will walk along the couch, bathtub, ottoman or window sill. He hasn't taken that brave first step on his own. Super crawl is his preferred method of travel.
 
Joey love bath time! No amount of time is long enough. He loves to kick, splash, stack his cups. Anything and everything is fair game at bath time. His inner-wild man comes out, for sure.
 
He also loves books. He loves to be read to and we've really made books before bed a permanent part of our routine. He will pull his books out and look through them page by page, on book at a time.
 
We've still got a little bit of a picky eater on our hands. He has his good days and bad days. He's a good eater, just particular. Chicken nuggets and fish sticks are still among his favorites. Recently he seems to be enjoying mac & cheese. Shockingly, he's shying away from bananas. Strawberries and blueberries are back in the love category. He also enjoys crackers and goldfish. He also can't get enough of muffins and M&M's, though not at the same time.
 
This month's picture was rough! Joey was super squirmy, all over the place and the majority of the photos came out blurry. Slim pickens these days!
