Halloween Pictures

Moira didn't go trick or treating, or attend any All Hallow's Eve parties, but that didn't stop Mommy and Daddy from dressing her up and turning her loose with a (unlit) Jack O'Lantern and some candy!


"What's in here?"


"What's wrong with its face?"


Have pumpkin, will travel.

"Maybe there's something I missed?"

"Can someone fill this thing for me?"

Happy Halloween!

The Funny Things Moira Does

Our Moira is a busy girl, and keeps us constantly entertained with her antics! Here's a sample:


"Moira to Mission Control. Come in, Mission Control."


She did this hersef. I guess she aspires to be in a hair band.


"Mmmmm...lemony."

"What do you mean, it doesn't match my outfit?"

"I'm so hungry, I could eat my toes..."

"Gooooo, Sabres!"

Which one is the backpack?

Video: Gavin Grasshopper Story Time

Mommy and Moira are having a quiet moment reading the new book Grandma Di Salvo just sent, Gavin Grasshopper's Costume. The chirping sound effect scared Moira at first, but now that she's used to it, she loves that little addition to the story.

Our Dancing Queen!

The Most Beautiful Baby

We just love when Moira is having fun. Here are a couple of videos of her laughing and having a good time.

A Day at the Park

We know that Moira loves the park. So on a recent Saturday, I took her to the park in Heppner where she could run around and play until she ran out of energy. Unfortunately, the only one who ran out of energy was me!

Video: Trashin' the Camp

Here's a video of Moira rockin' out to her new favorite song, "Trashin the Camp," from the Disney Tarzan soundtrack. Some days that seems like a fitting title for her life!

July 2009: Summer on the Farm

Summer on the farm. Need we say more?

Moira Stays Busy!

At 14-1/2 months, Moira is on the move! She no longer walks...she runs, climbs, opens cabinets, and generally makes a nuisance of herself. Oh, we love her more than ever, but she keeps us busy. Below are some samples of our life lately.



The coffee table used to be our big worry...now it's the least of them!



She still loves being tossed in the air by Mommy or Daddy, but it's getting harder to toss her...she's such a big girl now!




All that activity makes her hungry...she really gets into her meals.




Her favorite thing is playing outside when it's not too hot. Here she's helping Mommy weed the flower bed.

"Come on Mommy, time to go swimming!" (Actually, all she does is splash her hands in the water...we can't get her to go in!)

Easter 2009

Okay, so Easter was a while ago. Things have gotten busy in our lives, so the blog posts have fallen waaayyyy behind...obviously. We'll try to do better. We promise! As a start, here area few pics from our Easter.
