Not eating: His weight is normal. He is not growing as much as he was during his first year of life. Consequently he doesnt need as many calories and as result has a poor appetite..Instead of formal meals let him"graze" you might also try having him help you prepare mealsbut dont worry its a normal stage he is going through.
