Every year, Old Wethersfield holds an event in October called Scarecrows on Main Street (also called the Scarecrow Walk). Neither Shawna nor I had ever been, but a few friends had mentioned it to me as possibly a good Out and About Mom outing. My basic understanding was that there was a scarecrow contest held by the local businesses and the […]

Central Park Zoo in New York City
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 […]

You sit outside, there are plenty of high chairs, they only have paper products, the table […]
Fish Family Farm
Just yesterday, my family and I went to visit a new-to-me dairy farm in Bolton, Connecticut. I first heard about this farm from one of our readers (thanks Mia!) and then heard about it again when the Lutz Children’s Museum held a fundraising event there a few weeks ago. So, on this beautiful Monday (when we were […]

Boston Children’s Museum
For this week’s post I am venturing out of Connecticut and visiting one of our neighboring states, Massachusetts. My husband’s friend from college was going to be visiting Boston, Massachusetts with his family and we decided to pop over for a visit. The weather forecast was not good for the day we were planning on […]
