Halloween, Fun Fall Festivities, Teething and Time Changes


Our family went as rock, paper, scissors for Halloween! We took Wren "trick-or-treating" in our neighborhood in her scissors costume. I can't wait until she's old enough to actually understand what's going on, and to be able to partake in the candy eating so Mama doesn't eat all of her candy next time. ;)




We visited the pumpkin patch at the Dallas Arboretum and enjoyed a couple patios in Dallas the past couple weeks since the weather has finally cooled down. We also celebrated my mom's birthday and took Wren to Perry and Jill's son Walker's 2nd birthday party.








One day they'll be friends - once she stops pulling his fur and stealing his thunder.






Wren's developing cute new milestones. She is pulling up and getting the hang of her walker. She just sprouted her first two teeth, and she hasn't been taking it well so far. She's been in a lot of pain the past few days, and she might be sick on top of that, too. She isn't adjusting well to Daylight Savings Time; she was awake at 4:30 a.m. this morning - even earlier than she wakes up in "normal" time. I've had a hard time with these challenges lately, but I'm constantly reminded that we're lucky to have a healthy baby girl. It's a phase and it will pass, just like her hard newborn days did. 



She's already found the bar.

We bought this fun portable high chair that we can just take to restaurants and attach to tables.

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...

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...
