This past weekend, I made the possibly crazy decision to meet up with my sisters in New York City. Well, I guess normally that isn’t a crazy thing, but with three little kids in tow, it definitely seemed like a bit of a wild adventure. We were only in New York for two days, but somehow […]
Giveaway: What to Expect Book Series
This giveaway is now closed. Do you remember when you found out you were pregnant? What an amazing time. Were you like me and immediately ran out to the store to buy every pregnancy magazine and book you could get your hands on? If you did, I’m betting one of the books in today’s giveaway was […]
South Windsor Police Car Seat Check-up
So this week is car seat safety week, and I thought, what better time for a post about an event that has become an essential part of my life since Boo was born–actually, even before Boo was born: the FREE Car Seat Check-up run by the South Windsor Police Department (and hosted by the South Windsor […]
Wordless Wednesday: Sunday Morning Breakfast
We enjoyed breakfast at Rose’s Berry Farm this past Sunday. With three kids under the age of two in tow, this is one of the only breakfast places where we can actually enjoy ourselves with little to no stress. You sit outside, there are plenty of high chairs, they only have paper products, the table […]
Fish Family Farm

So, on this beautiful Monday (when we were […]
Apple Picking at Belltown Hill Orchards

Wordless Wednesday: It’s Fritter Time!
I just love all this cool weather we’ve had the past few days. It gets me so excited for all the Fall fun that’s just around the corner! And nothing says “Fall” quite like apples! I hate to play favorites, but these might just be the best apple fritters I’ve had yet. Check back tomorrow […]
Walter’s Boundless Playground at the Shoppes of Farmington Valley
Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. Do you remember the post about Bruiser’s first haircut? Poor thing. I took him to Snip-its at the Shoppes at Farmington Valley. Well, since that visit several months ago, we have discovered a few more goodies at this great shopping destination. For one, you just heard last week […]
Guest Post: Baby Boot Camp
Today, we are thrilled to have Brenda Holian back with us for another guest post. You may remember her post a few weeks back where she explained all the benefits of pre- and post- natal exercise. Well, if you were feeling inspired by her words of wisdom, I’ve got great news! Today Brenda is going […]
