Four months old

We have a four-month-old! Wren started at her new daycare last week. It's half the distance of her old one, so it's been a lot easier for me to get her to and from daycare, and much more practical for Cam to step in during emergencies. Her first couple of days were apparently a little rough, but she seems to be adjusting well.

Welcome, Wren "Proth!" 


Wren survived her first power outage! Dallas was hit by a massive storm on Sunday, and we lost power for 39 hours. Our daycare lost power, too, so we had to take off Monday since we had no childcare. Dealing with a power outage with an infant is a challenge I hope I never have to experience again! It was pure chaos at our house, although we didn't have it as bad as others in our area did. Our neighbor has a generator, and he ran a cord to our house so we could plug in a few things. We had our refrigerator, TV, WiFi, and bought fans for our room and Wren's room. It definitely could have been worse.

Wren's night sleep is still pretty inconsistent. The past few nights it's been really hard to get her down at night, but she's slept until about 3:30-5:30 a.m. She still isn't back to sleeping until 6 a.m. like she was at 3 months, but hopefully this regression will be over soon and we'll all start getting better sleep again. Cam and I might have to start some dreaded sleep training soon...

Daycare says that Wren can roll over now, but we are yet to see it for ourselves. She started holding her bottle with both hands, but she isn't quite strong enough to hold it upright when it's full. We are going to Florida this weekend and taking Wren! We'll update you about how her first flight and beach trip went. Wish us luck...




Ready for our beach trip!



We are raising an informed little citizen!

4 month photo dump

I have neglected updating Wren’s blog for several moths, so here is a huge photo dump featuring Christmas, her 3rd birthday, and first time skiing in Crested Butte. Our little one has such a funny little personality. Right now she’s really into cooking and food toys, and she’s turning out to be kind of a girly girl. She insists that everything is “pink”, and the books she picks at bedtimes are typically princess books and fairy tales. She continues to be obsessed with the big bad wolf and witches. Her favorite food is French fries, but she fortunately does a good job cleaning up her fruits and veggies too. When she turned 3, she told us she would now like to have coffee, beer and wine. 😂  She skied for the first time in Crested Butte in February with Cam’s family and loved it. She kept telling her ski instructors that she wanted to “go fast!” She loves her cousins Cash and Walker dearly and thinks they are super cool.  First date  Arboretum Christmas village  Taking...

11 months, first swim lesson

Wren turned 11 months last week! She is turning out to be a pretty good eater. We've slowly started reintroducing her to dairy and she seems to be tolerating it well, so fingers crossed her dairy allergy is behind her. Some of her new favorite foods are bread (who doesn't love bread, girlfriend?), turkey & dressing, tamales, grilled chicken, and her go-to favorites are still green beans, avocados and tomatoes. She even tried salmon and tilapia at lunch yesterday and enjoyed both. The only thing she's refused so far is beets. Can't really blame ya, Wren - beets are an acquired taste for most! Wren understands the concept of sharing - especially with her big brother Oscar. Sometimes she'll alternate between taking a bite of food and handing a piece to Oscar. Oscar all of a sudden is learning to tolerate Wren's hair pulling and attention hogging much better lately... Wren took her first swim lesson yesterday and really enjoyed it. Our litt...
