September 2010

We did a couple of fun things in September. We also performed a lot of care-giving for our then (and now) teething son.

Troy says, "Hanging with one of my main dogz, Xander Pants. What WHAT!?!"

"Ove is one of the cool older kids I look up to," says Troy. "He can walk and that's kewl."

On Labor Day a bunch of our neighbors got together and had a picnic at the park. We were rebels and invited non-neighbor friends.

Around this time Cristy got a new front career because the Baby Bjorn wasn't so good for her back (our son is too fat). This other carrier (than you Craig's List!) has a nice back strap that offers more lumbar support.

Troy loves sporting his Troy gear. Also, Troy's parents love it when Troy sports his Troy gear.

Sometimes Dad and Troy even switch clothes (mostly just clothing accessories). They are so cool.

And happy.

One night Papa Bear caught Mama Bear walking around in the dark living room brushing her teeth. It was creepy funny. (Note: the flash destroyed the forensic evidence.) This event is only really funny because Nathaniel gets made fun of for doing it all the time, and he finally caught Mama in the act.

September 18th we went fruit picking in Maryland with our Ward. It was awesome. Everything is cheaper because you pick it yourself, and its fresh.

Our leftmost neighbors Jim and Lisa (standing on the left) also came.

We could not understand why Troy kept picking so many apples. He doesn't even like apples (or any non-milk food, for that matter).

Please note how much happier Troy is when he sees Mama than when he sees Dad. If only Nathaniel's mammary glands were active :(

Parents are always so happy to give their children new experiences. And children...are sometimes so aloof.

Why the Moreiras were so excited to see the cow we will never really know. But wow...how about that cow! (Troy says, "it is a nice cow Dad.")
