Here he is! Shawna’s baby boy arrived on Monday, July 29th. His blogging nickname won’t be revealed (or probably event contemplated) for a little while, but we wanted to let you know that he is here and that mama and baby are doing well. So here are a few pictures of Shawna and our newest […]

Wordless Wednesday: Happy Birthday to My Sister
Happy Wednesday! Yikes! I think this heat is making me delirious, I almost forgot to do my Wordless Wednesday post. So, now that I’m deciding last-minute to post something, I just took a quick look at my camera roll to see what I’ve captured over the last few weeks. In my search, I found pictures […]
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 […]
Wordless Wednesday: Elizabeth Park Rose Garden
The roses are blooming at Elizabeth Park in Hartford, Connecticut. If you haven’t been, go now! Really, the place is just gorgeous. Maybe even go tonight. If we can get the rain to hold off, their summer concert series will kick off at 6:30 pm. Want to keep up with all our Out and About […]
Wordless Wednesday: Family Photo Shoot
Right before Boo turned one, we had a professional family photo shoot to commemorate the occasion. I loved all the pictures, and I plastered them all over my house, not to mention holiday cards, holiday gifts, calendars, etc. Last year when Boo was turning two, I never quite got my act together to get us […]

Wordless Wednesday: Touch a Truck
My kids are obsessed with trucks. Well not even just trucks. Cars, emergency vehicles, city buses, school buses, you name it, they like it. It seems that an obsession with vehicles is all the toddler rage these days and my kids are fully on board. For that reason, touch-a-truck events have become a pretty popular […]
Wordless Wednesday: The Heat is On
Was it really in the high 80’s yesterday? All I know is that it was hot, hot, hot. I really wanted to take the kids to a spray pad, but they don’t open in West Hartford until this weekend (Yes. Fernridge, Kennedy and Wolcott spray pads open May 25, 2013!) So we headed over to […]
Wordless Wednesday: Mother’s Day Brunch
This year for Mother’s Day, hubby and Boo surprised me with a fancy-ish brunch at The Adams Mill in Manchester, CT. Throughout the past seven years that we’ve lived in CT, I’d heard so much about this restaurant fashioned in an old paper mill building, that I was always dropping hints about wanting to try it out.
