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...

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...
