On Thursday Jules and I went to <a href="http://www.buffalogardens.com/" target="_blank">The Botanical Gardens</a> with my mom, it was one of the hottest days of Summer but she had the day off of work and needed to activate a groupon she bought for a Grandparent membership there. We sweated through all of the houses, next time we plan to go when it's a bit cooler since no ac. It was beautiful and dreamy but it was hot! <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
There were two things I wanted to try with Jules while we were in Chautauqua: rnt bikes and go on a paddle boat ride. I knew we wouldn't get to do both, so while we explored the Institution on Wednesday we checked out our options. Chautauqua offers both bike rentals and paddle boat rentals, bikes can be rented hourly or daily, paddle boats by the half-hour. Since we had done neither of these activities with J we decided to go for the less expensive option of paddle boating at only $5 per half hour. So perfect!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We went Thursday morning, our original plan was to go after lunch on Wednesday but J fell asleep in his stroller on the way there. When we got there they were a little hesitant since the lake was a little choppy from a thunder storm the night before, however, since we were only going out in a paddle boat they thought we'd be ok. Also we promised to stay close since we didn't know if Jules would even like the ride. He hated wearing the life jacket, wouldn't even try it on. We got him into it and once we were out there he seemed to like it ok. That view though, worth every cent of that $5. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
While we were in Chautauqua we had no plans to do anything, we mostly just spent our time exploring the institution. As we were walking along the lake we happened upon <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestine_Park" target="_blank">Palestine Park</a>. I am not a particularly religious person but I still thought this was a really cool replica of the holy land. Of course we didn't realize what it was until after we climbed all over "Mt Hermon" and ran through and around the "cities" and landmarks. Also that view of the lake from where we were standing didn't suck. </div>

As we were driving down Main St on Tuesday evening to head to Chautauqua everyone was setting up their chairs for the Old Home Days parade. Luckily we made it out just before the parade began and we made it home in time to enjoy the last day of the carnival. </div>

At first Julian didn't want to go on any ride without me, but he warmed up and he went on all of the rides at least once (age/size appropriate), some even twice in a row (like the REALLY big slide, he loved that one!).</div>

This week we stayed with Ben's parents inside the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chautauqua_Institution" target="_blank">Chautauqua Institution</a>. They rented a condo and invited us to stay a few days to get away and relax. We really loved being there, the setting is so peaceful and Julian had a blast. I even started researching renting our own for a week next year. </div>

Yesterday Julian went to a pool party with my mom, she said that he fell asleep on the way there and stayed asleep for almost the entire time! I must've tired him out all morning playing at home. I went shopping with my sister, tried on a few things but left empty handed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Usually Dad does tubby time but last night I did it so Dad could relax. I asked Julian if he wanted a bubble bath (YES!) and while he was playing I asked him how his day was (good) and what he did. To that he said, "I took a tub and everything!" This little boy is so so funny. </div>

Yesterday we went cherry picking. On the way we stopped at a <a href="http://buffaloeats.org/2013/05/13/reids/" target="_blank">little hot dog stand</a> for french fries and milkshakes and then continued north to Burt, NY to <a href="http://www.kappusfarms.com/" target="_blank">Kappus Farms</a>. I am now furiously looking up delicious cherry recipes so that I can use these all up before they go bad (we picked about 10 pounds!). I can't wait to go back later in the season to pick some peaches and apricots! </div>

Ben doesn't work on Wednesdays. Normally Julian would be in daycare but today we decided to take a quick trip to Niagara Falls to the <a href="http://www.aquariumofniagara.org/" target="_blank">Aquarium of Niagara</a> where Dad works. Ben is by technical terms an <a href="http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/science-engineering-careers/OceanSci_aquarist_c001.shtml" target="_blank">aquarist</a>, other official titles are marine biologist and zookeeper for fish and other non-mammal animals. We went with Ben's sister and nephews. We checked out all of the exhibits and then Ben took us behind the scenes where he actually works and we got to visit the animals in the touch tank and see what goes on behind all of the glass in an aquarium. It was pretty cool to see what he does all day back there.</div>

Yesterday I was on a quest to find new sneakers. I've been using the same sneakers for over a year and I've been hating them just about as long. The thing with sneaks is that they are just so expensive, I could not see myself paying over $100 for them then a week later being like, "I hate these, I'll buy some new ones." No, I needed to go the great depression route and finally wear them out to convince myself that I really do need new ones. <br />
<br />
So I got dressed, dropped off J at daycare and set out to find some new sneakers (mostly for running since I like to pretend I am a runner, I did complete a half-marathon last fall). First I stopped at JC Penney to check out their new home store set up and to stop in the Sephora to see if they carry my favorite sunscreen line (they don't). It's cute. Then I planned to go to a store that Ben bought me a gift certificate to for Christmas, only to find out that the store is permanently CLOSED. What a waste, here's a lesson learned: go out and battle the crowds the first week post-Christmas because the store might be closing. Then I went to another store and found some sneaks I liked, but they did not have my size. This was a serious test of my patience. I wanted to throw in the towel and just give up and wear my stupid uncomfortable sneakers and search tomorrow. Then I was like, no, Sarah, you can do this, you need to find those sneakers today, finish this! So I went to the mall and found the ones I wanted in my size (and a half size bigger to try) and bought them. Success! What a relief!<br />
<br />
Ben says my stories are mundane. He also said that my shirt was the worst twister board he'd ever seen. So who's right?Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3120075427333669365.post-58256152693926428862013-07-02T10:42:00.001-04:002013-07-02T10:42:22.697-04:00Monday MondayYesterday Julian went to daycare so I spent my day cleaning, rearranging some furniture and eating leftover chicken finger pizza. He'll be in daycare two days a week over the summer so he can still play with his friends and so I can still get some things done around here, like finally get around to decorating our apartment the way I want it (we've only been living here 11 months...).<br />
<br />
Since I've had all of this free time I've been spending a bunch of it on Craigslist because I'm really aching for a new dining room table I hate ours with a passion, the top is wood mdf with plastic veneer then a wood looking sticker-veneer thing, it's weird I'm serious. Ben hates when I get on craigslist because I always make him go with me to look at these things that are usually unnecessary for us to buy, like when I bought a jogging stroller from Chris Lee (that's a story for another time). <br />
<br />
Through <a href="https://twitter.com/thelevinstein" target="_blank">twitter</a> I found the funniest post about a craiglist fiasco, and it reminds me so much of my life and craigslist journeys.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We went to graduation party for my cousin Matt yesterday. We enjoyed spending the day with family and the beautiful weather we've been lucky to have (since the forecast has been calling for rain everyday). </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Teaching my child how to share has been challenging recently, everything he has is his own and so he has a tough time understanding the concept of sharing toys and playing together. This of course leads to the bigger, more important question: do we want more children? Somedays (and these are only my opinions) I love having just him, I only have to argue with one teacup human (these twos are tough), we can do whatever we want, little to no compromising. Then again, I realize how tough it will be for him when he is older, having no built-in friends, and the burden of caring for his parents will be solely on him. I also really love babies and being pregnant was a picnic. And I do sort of still want a babygirl.</span> </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Today Ben didn't work, he's off on Saturdays. This afternoon we met up with some friends at the Taste of Diversity on Buffalo's westside. The festival was smaller than we expected, we were there for about an hour which was long enough for me to enjoy a delicious ice cream sandwich from the </span><a href="http://thesweethearth.net/"><span style="font-family: Georgia;">Sweet Hearth</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia;"> food truck. I'll be using salt on my chocolate chip cookies from now on, and probably eating them with ice cream. Since we had made the trek to the city from Williamsville we decided to stay in the area and take Jules to the art gallery to enjoy the beautiful weather and scenery. Across the street is a playground which is where we spent most of our time. Somehow he found the only puddles in the park, soaked his shoes and shorts, and threw a major two year old temper tantrum when we decided he had splashed enough (there is never enough splashing for him).</span> </div>
