Fall Festivities

The pandemic is still raging in North Texas, so we've spent most of our social time outdoors the past couple of months. We've spent a lot of time with family. Babcia bought wren a Jeep, and loves to cruise the streets to show off her new ride. Yaya and Papa come to visit about once a month. We've had friends over to watch Texas football games on our deck, and have visited friends in their backyards. 















Our neighbors threw a fun pumpkin carving party for the little ones in their front yard the week before Halloween, and Wren dressed up as a Goldendoodle. Halloween was really fun this year! All four grandparents came over, and we set up chairs in the front yard to watch the trick-or-treaters. I set up individual baggies of candy for the kids to take for social distancing. Wren was a hot dog, and Cameron and I were mustard and ketchup. ;)














We've visited the Dallas Arboretum a couple times already with Wren and recently discovered the Children's Garden. Wren loved playing in the exhibits and listening to the live music on the main lawn. We're so lucky that the Arboretum is just minutes from our house.




Overall Wren is happy, healthy and soaking up the wonders of the world. She's seemingly learning a new word every single day. Some of her favorite words are "dark", "boo boo, hurt", "eat", and "bird". She loves FaceTiming her grandparents, dinosaurs, reading books (she "reads" them herself) and chips and queso. She makes my heart burst with pride every day. <3

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...
