September 2013 Roundup
On Monday morning, hubby and I awoke to a strange yet familiar hissing sound. Could it be? Already? Yup. It was our radiators, slowly simmering back to life after a long, hot summer of inactivity. It’s official: fall has arrived in Connecticut. But these chilly nights are preceded by some pretty glorious days, so now […]

Wordless Wednesday: The Apple Picking Dilemma
Fall is my favorite season. I know that technically we still have a few more weeks of summer left, but in my mind, once we’ve passed Labor Day, it’s fall. One of my favorite fall activities is apple picking, and that’s just what I had wanted to do over the long Labor Day weekend. We […]

Bodie’s Place Playground
Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. One of my favorite types of outings is to scope out new playgrounds. It’s easy, it’s cheap, and it’s a great excuse to go for a drive to a new (to me) corner of our state. For this excursion, we decided to check out Bodie’s […]

Wordless Wednesday: Beating the Heat
This past weekend was brutal. I know it doesn’t help that I am 8 months pregnant, but I think everyone was feeling the heat as the temps soared into the 90’s (but felt like they were in the 100’s!). Most of the time, our little window air conditioning units were not cutting it. So we […]
