He still has that pug nose. Chubby cheeks. Distended belly. Reversed knuckle dimples. He loves to nurse first thing when he wakes up (and pretty much every 30 minutes to 2 hours throughout the day :).
He loves to feed himself at the table, and considering he only has one tooth, he is pretty darn good at handling "finger foods" that require a lot of gumming. I recently discovered that he LOVES to eat watermelon. Especially if it's off the rind. So, we have been eating a lot of watermelon around here. And, what is cuter than watching a (ahem) toddler eat watermelon straight off the rind? Juice dripping off the elbows and down the belly. Seeds stuck to his face and neck.
It wasn't until I saw these photos on my computer though that I thought, "WOW, he doesn't look like a baby anymore. He is a toddler!!" I was very sad for a moment, but then I realized how much fun toddlerhood has already brought us, and how this journey of parenthood just keeps getting better and better.

He's a cutie!
Our girls both love watermelon too. It's a favorite summertime fruit for us.
