Wren's first vacation

We just returned from Panama City Beach yesterday. It wasn't the relaxing type of beach vacation we were used to pre-Wren, but we're so glad we took her! Wren was surrounded by so much love from Mark and Jordan's nieces (four girls 8 and under), and it was great to share one of my favorite pastimes with her. She did great on the flight! She slept a little and chilled with minimal fuss both ways. It was such a relief and a great sign that we can take her with us on future trips. She tolerated the beach for moments at a time, but overall I think it was a little too hot for her. We'll try again next year when she's old enough to actually get in the water.

Wren slept really well on the trip - between 10 and 11 hours each night. Not sure if it's because the beach wore her out or if maybe we've finally turned a corner on the 4 month sleep regression. She's officially a roller and likes to sleep on her stomach. Fingers crossed the worst part is behind us and we can start getting consistent restful sleep again.


First boarding pass! This one's going in the baby book. ;)


The good life





Baby Adam loved napping on the beach. Wren not so much.

It sounded like Wren told Mark "hey" here


The girls LOVED playing with "Wren Wren", and she loved all the attention!

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...

 Wren stole the show for our family photos this year. Look at this little doll. <3

Summer into Fall

We've had some pretty big developments since my last update. A few days after my last post, Wren began crawling out of her crib and transitioned into a big girl bed! It's been an exhausting 2 1/2 months. She fights like crazy at night to get into bed, and for several weeks she was waking up in the middle of the night and running into our room. Things have improved, but she's still adjusting! We went to Miami with Baba and Yaya in July. They were such great help with Wren, so Cam and I had a little time to relax. Wren loved staying in her "house" with Baba and Yaya and swimming in the hotel pool. She's still not a huge fan of the beach! Wren has been doing great with her potty training! She only wears Pull-Ups at night and has few accidents these days. I was bribing her with toys every time she peed or pooped in the potty, but lately I've had to up it to chocolate or cookies. She's developing a sweet tooth like her mama after all. ;) Wren spent a lot of...
