I just can’t get enough of this beautiful weather! It almost pains me to come back indoors so Boo can have his afternoon nap. (Notice I said almost 🙂 ). Today we hit one of our favorite playgrounds, Addison Park, for the first time this season. It never ceases to amaze me how much more […]
Little Hikes for Little Tikes at Wintergreen Woods in Wethersfield
Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. If there’s one positive thing I can say about the frosty, snowy, dreary, loooooong winter that we just experienced, it’s that it has made me enjoy these first lovely spring days even more. Lately my outing mantra has been: I don’t care what we do, so […]

Wordless…Tuesday: Here we grow again!
We’re having a few technical difficulties here at OAAM today, so we won’t be able to post our regularly scheduled outing review until tomorrow (you may also have noticed that we’re currently sporting our super old header pic–look at those little babies!). However, we’re hoping you will forgive us for the delay when I tell […]

March 2013 Roundup
Well, it’s been another month of bundling up, dodging the snowflakes, and trying to find fun indoor activities to keep us all entertained as we anxiously await the arrival of spring. So let’s scroll down memory lane and see how we survived the last weeks of winter. (Of course, when we are all complaining about […]
Learn and Play: Kids’ Classes at the Lutz Children’s Museum
Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. We love the Lutz Children’s Museum. It’s more proof that good things come in small packages. This pint-sized museum is full of fun activities for children, from a pretend (and miniaturized) Main Street to a puppet theater to a room filled with amazing animals (read Mandy’s […]
Wordless Wednesday: A Tasty Promise
Back when I was in the last weeks of my pregnancy with Boo, Hubby and I went out for dinner to the Chili’s in Glastonbury. I was (yet again) craving that big skillet of meaty queso and chips, which seemed to magically, if only temporarily, relieve the pangs of late pregnancy. Anyway, we were enjoying […]
OAAM Tiny Diner Series: The Famous Shady Glen
Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. A few weeks ago, we were trying to think of a way to get out of the house on a cold Sunday morning. We decided to head over to the Time Machine Hobby Shop to see the giant model train layout (see some pics of that […]
