Thanks for everyone's suggestions.

I noticed Deerfield Mall is about 5 miles away from the airport. I know that it might not be the best mall, but I wonder if maybe that's our best option in total.
Have you verified whether you'll be able to have your bags checked through to your onward flight with such a long connection? If not, are there any luggage storage facilities in or near IAH? Having to lug your bags to a mall, or anywhere else, would be a bummer.
