Guys, just look at that face. Those sky blue eyes. Those cheeks! Oh, those chunky chunky cheeks that I can't plant enough smooches on. And just look at that baby hair, the growing hair that hasn't been touched with scissors since he was born 17 months ago. Look at those curls and wings that stick out on the ends. Just the cutest, right?? And that belly. Oh my goodness, this kid is a chunk. You should see that big buddha belly after a big helping of pancakes!
So you want to read some highlights of our little dude at 17 months?
