Our Baby Boy is ONE!!!

When Connor was born, I decided that on the 22nd of every month (he was born Jan. 22nd), I was going to take a picture of him with just a diaper, on a black background. That way when he turned one, I could put them all together and see how much he changed...


We were VERY surprised to wake up on his birthday to find that it had snowed that night. This was the first snowfall at our house. Of course Connor was WAY to into the snow to actually look at me while taking his picture, but that's okay :-)


Connor's hair has been getting really really long lately, and I've wanted to cut it, but EVERYONE tells me not to, that it's so cute. Well normally he just looks like he's got bedhead all the time, lol... but I guess his hair cooperated because it was his day, and it looked so cute with his little curl

We decided to go out to breakfast at Denny's for his birthday, which he LOVES doing.


We also went to get Connor's 1st Birthday pictures done, but that didn't go over very well (thank you JC Penny's) so we might be doing his pictures some time this week instead.
That night we had just a little family get together for cake and ice cream.

Connor tried ice cream, which he wasn't too sure about. I think he wasn't very happy about the cold fingers, and just cried that it was on his tray...



On Saturday, we had Connor's Pirate Party. We just invited some close family and friends to celebrate. I had lots of fun making the cupcakes (with the help of Aaron and his mom).


For some weird reason, Connor has decided that he needs to make this face ALL the time. When he's happy, when he's crying... whenever. Not so sure about it, lol...
Connor loves people, and he smiles and everyone... but when there's too many people, he gets a little scared. That with the fact that he's teething right now and a little cranky from that, makes for an uphappy party goer. He was clinging to me, Aaron, or my sister the whole night, and was not smiling at anyone. But... for some reason he LOVED watching my sister and dad play pool (which he's never seen anyone play before) and was busting up laughing every time they took a shot, hence the reason for him looking down in the next few pictures...



Connor LOVED his birthday cake.. eating and playing in it...




We had lots of fun over the weekend, and we can't believe that our baby is already one year old.
