Valentines Day and Mardi Gras

The past couple of weeks have been eventful at Wren's daycare. She celebrated Valentines Day and Mardis Gras in the infant room, and as of today, she is officially in the toddler room! I dropped her off with her new teacher Ms. Olga this morning and expected her to cry since she was so attached to her old teacher. Not one bit! Wren hit the ground running with her new activities and friends. I feel assured Wren is happy and safe leaving her at our daycare, and it makes the whole working mom thing a lot easier.

Bye Bye Buggy with the infants - her last week with her infant friends!
First drop-off in the toddler room. She didn't even look back when I left!

Fitting right in

Napping in her nap sack in the toddler room - no more crib!


Happy hour with Mom and Dad


Can you tell how she feels about swimming? 



Westlake Brewing - fun for the whole fam

Wren's infant teacher Ms. Jackie is from New Orleans, so she went all out on Fat Tuesday. She asked all the parents to dress their babies in purple, green and gold, and she made a Mardis Gras float for pictures. I will miss Ms. Jackie so much - she truly cared about our little Wren.




Last Friday we drove to Austin to celebrate Mark and Jordan's upcoming daughter Brooke. Wren was the youngest at the party and the least behaved, but she had a wonderful time at Mark's sister and brother-in-law's house afterwards playing with the Keller girls.

Lake and Beach

We are certain of one thing about Wren lately - she is a water baby! The past few weeks we've taken trips to Lake Travis and to the Panama City Beach area of Florida with Wren. To say she loves the water is an understatement. We visited Lake Travis with Cam's family, where Wren took her first boat ride and swam in the lake. She was a little apprehensive at first, but then she had a blast "jumping" into the water from the boat. Lake life suited Oscar as well. Who needs a boating license? Lake life is exhausting Larry was kind enough to fly us to Florida so we didn't have to make the brutal choice of braving the COVID-19 crowds at the airport or a 14-hour car ride with a toddler. This allowed us to bring Oscar to the beach with us too! This was our third annual trip "crashing" Mark and Jordan's combined family vacation. It's a special trip for us because we love watching Mark's four niece

9 months, first haircut

Our little birdie turned 9 months last week! She is riding all around the house in her walker, climbing stairs, pushing her sit-to-stand walker around the house, and most recently, eating three meals a day. We saw her GI specialist last week and made plans to slowly reintroduce her to dairy and soy next month. If that goes well, she might soon be able to start eating off the big kids' menu at daycare. One of my favorite new parts of the day with Wren is meal time. We went to Dream Cafe on Saturday and sat on the patio with Oscar. Wren got to order "off the menu" for the first time; she ordered a side of avocado and black beans. ;) She LOVES tomatoes - I cut cherry tomatoes into little bite-sized pieces for her, and she picks them up with her fingers and shoves them into her mouth. I'm looking forward to her being more like a little girl and less of a baby.   Wren also got her first haircut last weekend! She sat on Cam's lap and laughed at herse

Milestones on Milestones

...and we're mobile. I've been trying to challenge Wren to crawl the past couple months by placing toys in front of her, and until recently, she had been hesitant and frustrated. Last Friday, she just went for it! She's officially mobile, which Cameron is not too thrilled about. :) Wren has reached several fun new milestones this month! Aside from crawling, she's standing up supported and feeding herself her bottle. I picked her up from daycare last week and she was just chillin' on a Boppy feeding herself a bottle. I looked at the teacher wide-eyed and asked, "she's feeding herself?", and she nonchalantly replied, "Oh yeah, she's been doing that for two weeks now..." I guess we've just been spoiling her too much at home. <3 Wren appears to have a boyfriend at daycare. She always appears in pictures with the same boy, Augustus, and when I joked with the teachers about it, they confirmed that she loves hanging
