The Boy: 17 Months & What happens when Mama leaves

I left him in the care of my nephew for just a little while and returned to this.....I like to call it Asian Gangsta.

LOL

I'll take this opportunity to also update on Max. Max is well, Max. He is his daddy only shorter. 95% laid back, mellow LOVE and 5% not so mellow. When he is mad - watch out - he is MAD! Hi, Daddy ;) I love them both anyway.

We haven't been to the doctor, but judging from my back pain I am guestimating he's weighing in in the mid-30 lb range. He loves to eat. Loves Baby Einstein DVDs. LOVES HIS GREEN & BLUE STRIPED BLANKET. Its ok to love your blanket, just don't LOVE your blanket. He loves crackers still and grapes all of a sudden. He LOVES the pool esp. "jumping" in from the side. He has no fear/sense. He is his own little man. He will NOT kiss his mama when I ask for it anymore. However, if I play it cool when he gets on his little winnie the pooh scooter, he'll turn and wave like he's going bye-bye, and if I am REALLY lucky sometimes he gets off walks over and puckers up for a good bye kiss before scooting off on his journey to the living room.

Everyone comments on how BIG he is. I know I know. He's big. I might even let him play football someday if he has a foot and 50 lbs on all of his competitors. MIGHT being the operative word. Mama is protective. I love watching him grow and develop his own personality, even if it is bordering on the stubborn and tempermental side. I have no idea where those traits come from at all.
