17 months old


Ethan had turned 17 months old begining of March. Being a 17th month old toddler, I should be saying he is quite slow in his progress:-

1. Still crawling like a spidery mouse instead of walking

2. Deposit every single item picked from the floor just like a vaccuum cleaner

3. Owns 12 teeth in total

4. Climbs on anything & everything - escalator, steps, double decker bed, coffee table & many more

5. Shakes his head with every question asked like

- do you want to drink milk, shakes his head yet lie down at the mattress waiting for his milk

- do you wan to eat biscuits , shakes his head yet clapping happily for the biscuit

- do you love mommy , shakes his head yet using his hand to "saynag" my face

It is a growing process when mommies tend to worry about every single stage of their kids growing process.

When they are in our stomach, we tend to eat any food that we deem is beneficial to the baby.

When they came, we tend to worry if they have had enough to drink.

When they start to flip, we tend to worry if they will crawl.

When they are crawling, we tend to worry if they will walk..Now I am at this stage, when is Ethan going to be walking...Generically he is supposed to be walking that is what the books says.

I guessed many more worries ahead. No wonder everyone says, mommies are the greatest in this world.
