Calvin had great fun playing with his “Rock-a-Stack” while I made breakfast.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2009 8:19 AM
Success! I have managed to evenly spread Calvin’s solid food breakfast over his bib, face, and highchair.

Calvin managed to get applesauce on the back of his head somehow.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2009 10:22 AM
Huh, Calvin only ate 3 1/2 oz for 2nd breakfast. Maybe I’ll shower and see if he’s interested in a little more after that.

I think 5 has figured out the front door goes outside.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2009 12:02 PM
5 has curled up in the basket on the bottom of the Bob stroller. I wonder if we might accidentally take her on a walk with us someday.

Daycare is having trouble feeding Calvin also. We suspect it’s teething but don’t know for sure.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2009 4:13 PM
The Dr office says it’s probably nothing to worry about as long as he has a wet diaper at least every 8 hrs.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2009 5:40 PM
Daycare managed to get another 6 oz in him this afternoon.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2009 5:41 PM
I think we’re going to go outside now.

@calvinsdad What’s really astonishing is it must have been 5 that caught the mouse because Willow is afraid of the garage.

As always, it feels so wonderful when our house has just been cleaned *happy sigh*

There is no wind yet a continuous cascade of leaves is falling from one of our Ash trees. It’s like a leaf avalanche.

Problematic conversations: Calvin mispronouncing words that exist but I don’t know. Today’s example: apatosaurus.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2013 8:16 AM
I found out what he was talking about by looking for a page listing dinosaur names: https://ucmp.berkeley.edu/fosrec/MunGun4.html
-look the ref interview is useful

I can vaguely imagine a world before TV. However, the thought of no LEGOs is horrifying. The house is quiet while Calvin entertains himself.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2013 5:17 PM
Calvin is quizzing me on my addition tables again.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2013 5:29 PM
Calvin, “Sometimes food is so good I don’t care if they have onions in it.” I’m perplexed as the food doesn’t have onions. A suggestion?
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2013 5:31 PM
Also, Calvin gravely informs me that, “it’s never a good idea to light a match in your hair.”

Our gas fireplace is tiny but it makes the family room very cozy.

I have started the day by breaking one of the kitchen lights :(

Julian was in a terrible mood, nonstop crying, all morning but seems pretty happy now.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2015 5:30 PM
Calvin appears to be singing some sort of Hail to the Chief/Jingle Bells medley.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Oct 16, 2015 5:42 PM
When holding on to the top of the pack n play Julian can pull himself up about 1/2″.

Julian shows me his duplo sculpture and tells me, “Just look, don’t touch!”

The flyer was dropped off in our skeleton librarian’s lap which seems especially appropriate.
This was in response to @calvinsdad saying, “Our skeleton librarian in Santa Cruz is voting NO on O! Don’t be scared about the library project!”
