CA Academy of Science & Oscars

So this weekend was fun... on Friday, we had dinner at the Banerjees with the Schneiders. Always a good time. On Saturday, I had a ladies brunch with Kaori, Nikki, and Corinne. Edwin stayed at home with Lukas. When I got home, we headed out to go shopping at Babies R Us and Bay St. For those of you who are not familiar with BRU, picture Costco but for baby stuff. I really cannot go there with Edwin and Lukas anymore because at least one of them while have a meltdown while we are there since it in nearly impossible to leave in under an hour. We ended up having dinner at Burgermeister which always cheers up Edwin. We would have liked to have gone to see a movie, but we ended up at home watching a movie instead. It's definitely cheaper, but just not the same.

On Sunday, we met up with Jeannette and Freeman at the CA Academy of Science in the afternoon. We wish that we could have spent more time there, but we had an Oscar party to attend and Lukas needed to nap anyways, so we'll just have to go back some other time. Even though we were there for less than 3 hours, we still managed to spend $70. $25 for one ticket since Jeannette has a membership and can get one guest in free. The rest was spent on food. We know the rule about eating beforehand, bringing your own food, etc. But the food was good. Real good. Guess it better be at those prices, right? Lukas had a great time looking at the fish in the aquarium and playing in the toddler area. Pics to come later.

Then, we headed over to Nikki and Dan's for their annual Oscar party. They are the only ones I know that have an Oscar party every year. The only movies that I saw that were even nominated for anything were Avatar, Up, Star Trek, and Sherlock Holmes. It was a good time, but we had to leave early because Lukas did not nap well that day with all the activity. He's definitely getting to that age where he is getting into everything and doesn't want to sit still.
