I don't have a baby anymore!

It is official. I don't think I have a baby anymore. Rodney is doing so many grown-up things it kinda makes me sad. I know it's normal for him to progress, but really? He isn't even 9 months yet! I really should still have a baby!

Rodney:
~Would rather feed himself instead of being fed baby food.
~Crawls almost as fast as I walk.
~Knows where the food is at and pulls down my shirt when he wants it!
~Climbs stairs!!! I am talking full flights of stairs over and over and over again!
~Likes to tip the box fan over so he can climb up on it and just sit there.
~almost climbs over our baby gates.
~refuses sippy cups. We want big cups people...
~knows how to pull everything off of the coffee table, really it should be on the ground.
~Loves to go to any door and open and close it, and open and close it, and sit in front of it so Mom can't get him out.
~Has started to crawl away from me when he knows I'm coming to get him.
~Has to be forced to be dressed/diapered.
~Is really starting to enjoy showers (we don't have a bathtub)

We have nicknamed him Taz for his talent for distroying any space within seconds!
But really how can you be mad at this?!

You sure have your hands full chasing that cute little Rodney around! Good luck when he starts walking (which will be within a few weeks, I am sure...) He's the only exercise you need! ;)

He is super cute! If he is this ornery now just wait until he is 2 - it will be awesome! =)

Katie--
Good luck with this stage--I would like to say it gets better, but it doesn't :)
also thanks for fixing the crib! works perfect--you are awesome!
also to help the little one use a "grown up" cup--use the little cups that come on top of medicine bottles. They are so small they work perfect for little hands, and don't make too much of a spill if they miss!
