Calvin woke up at 1 and thought he wanted to play.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 8:27 AM
I heard him crying and thought it was teeth so I came in to give him more medicine but was very happy once I arrived.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 8:28 AM
Not so happy when I refused to play. He cried for an hour before drifting off again.

Today for breakfast Calvin gets “Arabian Squash Casserole”.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 8:32 AM
The butternut squash is combined with egg, onions, garlic, and red bell peppers. Calvin seems to like it.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 8:52 AM
(This was our main meal yesterday and I set a little aside for Calvin without the feta cheese or added salt).
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 8:53 AM
Calvin has squash all over his face. It looks like he’s trying out a new form of makeup.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 9:49 AM
Calvin’s down for his nap and I’m working on supper since I’ll spend my normal prep time getting Calvin’s car seat checked out.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 11:01 AM
The outgrown baby stuff is piling up and Calvin’s only 9 months!
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 2:09 PM
Why do books always come in batches? I have 4 more waiting for me at the library. Fortunately, one is an audiobook.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 4:58 PM
The car seat has been officially checked and now I know where to put the versa tether (on the front car seats sliders).
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 5:12 PM
Calvin was just gleefully petting 5 (with supervision, of course).
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 5:13 PM
Now he’s happily playing with the sippy cup even though he hasn’t a clue what to do with it.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2010 5:19 PM
Calvin stood for several seconds by himself.
2011
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 8:15 AM
Calvin started going to the bathroom, noticed he was doing it, and went and sat on the potty (very good because it was epic).
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 5:57 PM
Calvin is guzzling the Butternut Squash Soup.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 6:21 PM
From daycare: “Calvin had fun making chocolate nests for the bake sale tomorrow.”
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 6:29 PM
You’d think I would have remembered the mess Cornmeal Muffins made last time I served them to Calvin . . .
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 6:39 PM
I think I need to mop floors tomorrow.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 8:55 PM
@calvinsdad will no doubt be happy to hear that the inside of Motoko has once again been cleaned.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2011 9:53 PM
Whew, survived another day. Now time for bed.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2012 8:02 AM
Calvin pointed to a stamp that has the face of the statue of liberty on it and said, “that’s in new york.”
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2012 8:02 AM
Then he went on to say he wanted to visit New York City.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2012 4:29 PM
From daycare, “Calvin had fun listening to Ms. Beth’s stories.”
2014
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2014 6:42 AM
Yep, it was windy last night. Perfect for starting the work week with not enough sleep.
2015
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2015 5:57 PM
It turns out I’m still not good at accepting defeat when it’s staring me in the face. You’d think I would have learned by now.
2016
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2016 4:49 PM
I forgot @calvinsdad is gone and put 4 potatoes in the oven.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2016 7:46 PM
Well, that was terrifying. Calvin just explained the general concept of the “superball” to me.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2016 7:47 AM
I told him that we prefer to spend our money on real things which he seemed more or less to accept.
Ted “Theodore” Logan @calvinsdad Jan 13, 2016 8:09 PM
@spreadsheetmom Do I want to know?
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2016 8:39 PM
@calvinsdad According to Calvin all the parents of his classmates are buying them. Hopefully that’s an exaggeration.
Ted “Theodore” Logan @calvinsdad Jan 14, 2016 4:16 AM
@spreadsheetmom You mean the Powerball lottery?
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 14, 2016 7:06 AM
@calvinsdad Presumably but Calvin is calling it the superball.
2017
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2017 7:04 AM
Hm, definitely going to miss my Caltrain today :(
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2017 7:05 AM
I should have brought a power cable for my computer. (So I could recharge once at work.)
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM
Now at Balboa Park BART and thinking of the corny billboards that say, “if you lived here, you’d already be home!”
2019
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2019 12:42 PM
Calvin is being dragged to the (mounted!) whiteboard for an impromptu math exercise.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2019 5:28 PM
Julian is very upset I’m packing Christmas away.
2022
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 13, 2022 6:33 PM
Well, Calvin got one school exposure notification prior to Christmas. We’ve gotten four so far this week. (None for Julian.)
