10 months, Santa is scary

Wren turned 10 months this month! She is fully recovered from the flu, although the past month she's still kept us on her toes. She's been really fussy the past few weeks and has been waking up in the 5:00s vs her normal 6:30. She's in a leap according to the Wonder Weeks app, but now I'm doubting the science behind it since the pediatrician couldn't confirm there's any real proof for leaps. All of Wren's sleep regressions have been temporary thus far, so hopefully this too will pass and we'll all be rested again soon.

Just doing some daily "reading"

We continue to introduce Wren to solid foods, although it appears she's still allergic to milk. She's successfully been eating table foods like black beans, vegetables, eggs and even a pork tamale, but she threw up after I gave her a few pieces of pizza over the weekend. I'll wait a few weeks and try dairy again, next time with something less aggressive than pizza!

We visited Santa at the Arboretum last weekend and it couldn't have gone worse. ;) Wren HATED Santa! She screamed immediately upon being placed in his lap and protested loudly. I predicted she wouldn't like him - she's in a stranger danger phase - but her abhorrence for Santa kinda cracked me up.

Next week the Christmas festivities begin! We're celebrating early with my parents then heading to Cam's parents' for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day before we escape to Chile (sans Wren) for a week.

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...
