My Big Boy!!!

Reed is now 17 months old and even though I still refer to him as my little baby he is becoming a toddler. He can now eat pretty much what ever we eat. I have taken him to Chick-Fil-A several times now and I can order him food there and not have to bring something with us. He now eats his food on a plate instead of me just putting it on his tray. Of course every now and then he will empty the food onto his tray and use the plate as a hat. We have also been working with him to use silver ware when he eats. He hasn't quite got the hang of it but he tries so hard to do it by himself. We have also quit carrying him every where because he needs to realize that we can't always carry him around. This has actually been a hard habitat to break. We are just so used to picking him up and going that sometimes we forget that Reed can walk. We let him go up the stairs in the house as well as down, which is really cute because he slides down on his butt, of course we are right there with him so he doesn't fall. Our next adventure is going to be switching his crib into a toddler bed. I don't know if I should be scared or happy!
