Boo Bash

Here is wren with her big cousins (second i suppose) Ali and Brita, and new friend Lucy. She went to the Boo Bash on Grand Ave with her Dad on Saturday. It was the premier of her new giraffe costume, which she is excited to wear on Friday for trick-or-treats!

she's the cats meow!

screamy baby. sleepy baby.

Wren had a rough night last night. She woke up around 11 screaming at the top of her lungs. This is completely unlike her. This is the baby who has slept through the night from night one and only wakes up to nurse. The loudest she gets at night is a little lip smacking when she is hungry. Or smacking of my boob if I am not being quick enough getting it out. We tried rocking her and pacing with her and singing to her, but she would not calm down. Just kept shrieking. I called my mom, who said to call the doctor. We called the nurse line and they said that you have to wait until a baby screams or cries nonstop for an hour and a half or more...which seems like a really long time to me! The nurse, who could hear Wren over the phone, said it sounded as though she was in pain. She thought it could be gas pain or teething. We gave her baby mylicon (gas relief) and teething gel, just to cover our bases. Something must have helped, because within 10 minutes she had calmed down, and within half an hour was back to sleep. Today she has been pretty cranky and sleepy, and I just got her down for a nap. I promptly took a picture, to document, and of course because I think she is so dang cute!

last night

Presidential Debates

Last night Wren watched the debates at an Air America event. She was definitely a star, as more people watched her sometimes than the candidates. She yelled at the TV and at the crowd, and overall seemed thrilled to be a part of it. Although Wren's family and friends may be politically divided, she is so cute in her Obama onesie that, if you haven't already, you just might think about changing your vote! ;)

apple orchard outing

playing with friends

Wren played with her best friends Maia and Lily at Mike's birthday party at Sal and Tommy's house. She had lots of fun rolling around and crawling with the big girls, who were eager to show her how its done.
