We’re not sure when Calvin woke up this morning.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2009 8:16 AM
He coughed and muttered around 6am. I got up and he was on his back so I flipped him over.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2009 8:16 AM
He muttered a little more than was silent. Didn’t hear any more sounds.

At 8, I asked @calvinsdad to check on Calvin (it’s his morning with Calvin) and he reported that Calvin appeared to be wide awake.

Since @calvinsdad is taking care of Calvin’s morning routine, I decided to make a real non-oatmeal breakfast.

Calvin likes chewing on my silicone pastry brush.

From daycare: “Calvin realy enjoyed laughing hard with his friends at lunch! (at what we’re not sure!)”

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2010 4:02 PM
Daycare reports Calvin refused to eat lunch today (even though he had pasta which he normally likes).

I’m packing for book club tonight and I know I’m forgetting something . . .

Calvin didn’t wake up till 9 and has insisted I hold him for the 1/2 hr he has been up.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2011 9:48 AM
Calvin’s sentence of the day: “The garbage truck picks up my trash and dumps it in the truck.”

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2011 4:18 PM
From daycare: “Calvin enjoyed Ms Beth’s stories.”

I think Calvin is learning interesting phrases at preschool such as, “I would be more comfortable if you would do $x”.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2012 8:01 AM
Yesterday, his favorite word was delicious. “Strawberries are delicious” “Bunny crackers are delicious”.

Oh look, we have a dusting of snow.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2013 3:39 PM
Calvin is upset the snow has already melted. I think he was envisioning snow slides.

It’s finally fall! Our house is a bit brisk.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2014 7:30 AM
I think this calls for pumpkin scones: https://web.archive.org/web/20141105041338/https://coffeeworks.blogs.com/coffee_and_tea/2005/10/pumpkin_scones.html (Plus I have extra squash from the pie.)

Well . . . Julian didn’t wake up till 3am, which was good. But then he decided it was time to get up at 4:30.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2015 6:48 AM
If I’m lucky, Julian might be down for his first nap of the day. Now I should probably go back to bed.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2015 9:55 AM
The problem with infant sleep is _I_ know what I’m suppose to do but Julian doesn’t agree.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2015 9:57 AM
Also, I need to find a place other than Julian’s room to store light bulbs.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2015 10:17 AM
I think Julian is going to scream for 30 min and nap for 30 min. That doesn’t seem very efficient.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2015 11:52 AM
Julian found our tea boxes.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2015 1:56 PM
I didn’t think that would work but Julian is back to sleep (after waking up and having a 10 min screaming fit in between).

Signs of the times: looks like Haagen-Dazs has a whole line of alcoholic ice cream.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2020 12:08 PM
Sadly, no peppermint even though off-brands have it now.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2020 3:34 PM
I am eagerly looking forward to soup season.


2021

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 4, 2021 5:32 PM
I got grocery delivery today and appear to have accidentally requested 1 pint of tomatoes instead of 3-4. By the time I got off work, Julian had already found the tomatoes.

Good news: replacing the lightbulb did fix the lighting issue. However, it doesn’t add much light to the room and I’m mystified as to why we’d want to highlight the chimney.
Fireplace with accent lighting above the high mantel.
