Wordless Wednesday: My Boy
We had another fun afternoon at Elizabeth Park this past weekend. The tulips are done and the roses are not yet in bloom, but this park is still a wonderful place to be. While we were hanging out, I snapped a few pictures of my baby boy. I’m definitely realizing that he is no longer […]
Happy Mother’s Day
I can’t believe that this year I will be celebrating my second year as a mom. I feel very blessed to have two wonderful children and another on the way. Shawna and I hope that all of the Moms out there have a fabulous Mother’s Day and are spoiled rotten by their families. We wanted […]
Solomon’s Path Playground
I mentioned last week, that my kids and I really like boundless playgrounds. Yes, it’s true, and that is the reason we visited another one this past weekend. The weather was pretty and it was a perfect activity for my two munchkins. I definitely owed them some sort of fun after their non-exciting Friday and […]
My Friend’s Place: Another CT Boundless Playground
Over the past few months we have featured several boundless playgrounds in our bi-weekly posts. I’m sure we mentioned this before, but a boundless playground is one where children and adults of all abilities can play together. The idea of a boundless playground began right here in Connecticut with Jonathan’s Dream in West Hartford. Now […]
Wordless Wednesday: Sisters
I love this photo. It is a picture of me, my three sisters, and our little girls (including the baby girl I am expecting in August). We don’t live very close to each other, so to all be in one place and get our picture taken together is such a wonderful gift. Do you have […]

She suggested New Milford visitors check out The Cookhouse for a family friendly dining option. Last month, we mentioned on our Facebook page that Alyson Hickey of Alyson Hickey Photography was holding a Mother’s […]
Wordless Wednesday: The Tulips are Here
The tulips have arrived at Elizabeth Park in Hartford. The park is definitely hopping this time of year. People are out walking, mommies are working out in the Stroller Strides class, families are taking pictures in the tulip garden and enjoying picnics near the rose garden. The park also just released their summer concert series […]
Storytime at Wethersfield Library
A few weeks ago, Shawna, Boo, Sparkles, Bruiser, and I all ventured out to visit a new-to-me library. The destination: Wethersfield.
A Bit of a Delay
I hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend this past weekend. I know many of you were celebrating Easter and/or Passover with family and friends. We had a nice relaxing Sunday ourselves. Bruiser and Sparkles got their first Easter basket and were excited to find their plastic eggs were filled with yogurt melts and puffs (it’s […]
