I wonder if Calvin would like his rice cereal better if _I_ was trying to eat it.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 7:28 AM
Yeah, he’s really not liking solid food.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 7:33 AM
Calvin seems to be getting more use to sleeping on his stomach.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 7:33 AM
The first time I found him on his stomach he’d probably been like that for hours since he was still sound asleep.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 7:33 AM
The second time he was awake so I went ahead and tried to roll him over so he could get more sleep.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 7:34 AM
However, it was already too close to his wake-up time (6am) so he apparently decided it was time to get up.

There’s no Sabbath School in Boulder today. Everyone is up an Glacier View Ranch.

We just got back from a morning walk. It’s sunny outside and not too hot. I love fall :)

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 11:33 AM
Put Calvin in the bassinet a couple of minutes ago in hopes he’ll take a nap.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 11:34 AM
He’s not screaming though he is making loud exclamations in between thrashing wildly. He eyes appear mostly closed.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 12:17 PM
Calvin was taking a lovely nap until 5 decided to start meowing. I was not happy.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 5:44 PM
We talked to Grandma today. Calvin showed her how well he sits up now.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 5:45 PM
I’ve decided it’s time for Calvin to have another nap so he’s currently screaming in his bassinet.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 6:04 PM
20 minutes later Calvin finally falls asleep *sigh*

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2009 8:10 PM
He woke up briefly to eat and then went back to sleep again. I’m scared about his potential morning wake time.

Calvin enjoyed playing catch with Jaeger and I.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2010 1:20 PM
Now he is resisting taking his afternoon nap.

After too many hours, the blinds in our house have been taken down, washed, dried, and put back up. The house smells like Pine-sol :S

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2011 4:44 PM
Calvin is “helping me” with washing the dishes.

Exercise plans foiled by an early rising preschooler.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2012 5:09 PM
Today, out of the blue, Calvin commented that he “did lots of things at preschool today.”

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2012 5:10 PM
Preschool activities included getting his picture taken, eating “all” his lunch and mixing his yogurt with his applesauce, playing outside.

The new carpet is in! It’s much softer than the old carpet. Hopefully it’ll be easier to keep clean too.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2013 11:35 AM
This sounds like my kind of book: https://web.archive.org/web/20131020114606/https://www.amazon.com/Science-Experiments-You-Can-Eat/dp/0064460029/

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2013 6:00 PM
Wow, Calvin asked for a spoon and it sounded like spoon instead of “phoon”.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2013 7:35 PM
Well, we got the really heavy stuff down in the basement without any deaths or severe injuries.

Why are there so many Craigslist postings for king beds in SF? Are these people moving here or people who bought king beds while in SF?

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2016 11:20 PM
I have reached the stage where it is so very late than I’m having trouble getting myself to bed.

“. . . please correct your last name”. Um, no. My name is correct. Your software is wrong.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2018 6:48 AM
I’m cranky this morning so I’m afraid wsdot is getting a very pointed comment this morning. I’m sure this isn’t fair because, if it’s like the library industry, there isn’t actually enough competition to make good software.

[WSDOT asks what the problem is.]

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2018 7:42 AM
Pay my toll. I have a hyphen in my name which the system doesn’t accept. The answer is to replace my hyphen with a space except that isn’t my name. My name has a hyphen in it.

[They apologize and say they’re working on an update that will address this issue.]

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2018 7:59 AM
Thank you, I appreciate your response!

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2018 7:58 AM
Hm, maybe I’m not cranky per se but rather sick. I just saw the 4th sick notice being sent out in my department.

I think the one thing Calvin knows how to make from scratch is lemonade.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Sep 19, 2020 5:36 PM
I’m picking up Julian’s room and brought a trash can and recycling bin but didn’t realize I would need compost (for sticks).
