Funny Faces

Can anyone explain this to me? Every now and then Conner will flex his whole body so hard and shake his hands and I don't know why. His cousin does it as well. She does it because she can get people to laugh. Conner will do it while playing with his toys or while eating. He doesn't make any noises, he'll just flex everything, pull these faces, shake his fists because he is flexing so hard and then keep on doing what he was doing. Crazy child.
The next two pictures are of Conner and his dad. Conner LOVES Steve. He gets so excited when Steve comes home. Because Steve is dirty when he comes home from work he'll go straight upstairs to shower. Conner will follow him. He'll climb up all the stairs, crawl through our bedroom, push open the bathroom door and stand up next to the tub. It is adorable.

In the picture above Steve would walk while Conner was holding on to him just like he is and Conner would walk with him. It reminded me of when a little girl stands on her dad's feet to dance.
On Saturday Conner took 5 or 6 steps. It was so fun watching him walk toward me. The only time he'll walk is when Steve and I sit on the floor. I think it will still be quite a while till he decides to up and walk by himself.
I am getting so excited for Conner's cupcake party, when he turns one. There is a girl in my ward who is obsessed with cupcakes and has a website dedicated to cupcakes. She has recipes for cupcakes you have never even heard of, like key lime cupcakes, raspberry lemonade cupcakes. I'll post her site under food blogs, it is called Kara's Cupcakes.

He is getting so big. I checked out that website, I love it!!! I love making cupcakes--so I am glad you mentioned it. :)

Adorable! He looks like he's getting such a fun personality! Logan does the same thing. He clenches up and shakes his hands-but we call it his "nervous face." I've been going over emotions with him, and that's his favorite face to make. Love it!

Wow, he's starting to look like a kid and not a baby anymore. I can't believe he's almost a year old...that flew by!
