Turns out I can sleep through 5 yowling after all if I concentrate.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2009 8:40 AM
It’s very nice to get a full night’s sleep.

I have trouble distinguishing between, “I’m working hard” and “I’m tired of this” cries during tummy time. He’s really trying to roll over.

I think Calvin is thinking about being cranky but isn’t quite there yet.

Just got back from Kanemoto Park.

Calvin is now taking his afternoon nap. Afterwards, we plan to go shoe shopping for him.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2010 12:34 PM
Calvin is still napping.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2010 12:46 PM
Calvin woke up so now we’re off to shop.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2010 5:18 PM
We found a Stride Rite outlet and got Calvin a new pair of shoes for a good price.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2010 5:18 PM
I also got some stuff and we stopped for ice cream on the way home.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2010 6:17 PM
Grandma is feeding Calvin his evening bottle.

From daycare: “Calvin had fun painting with a wiffle ball rolling in the sensory table.”

Mental note: note walk as soon as I drop Calvin off from preschool.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2013 8:19 AM
Calvin just painted his foot red to try to convince me it was bleeding and he should get a bandaid.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2013 11:47 AM
Huh, that was weird. My cash balanced.
2015
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2015 3:51 PM
Oh good. Julian cried so hard he threw up.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2016 7:21 AM
I am glad I waited till after breakfast to clean the floors.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2016 3:36 PM
We have no onions.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2016 3:41 PM
I just apologized to my dishwasher but in retrospect I think it should be apologizing to me.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2016 5:34 PM
This house was spotless 5 hrs ago. Also, there weren’t any crying children in it.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2016 6:27 PM
Right. Smallest child in bed. Now trying to get motivation to clean up all the mess.

Once again my oven is not baking properly :(

Dear @UniqloUSA, Many people have hyphens (or apostrophes, or many other things) in their names. It’s not an “invalid character” as the online ordering system appears to believe.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2018 10:32 AM
As always, a refresher course on names may be helpful: https://www.kalzumeus.com/2010/06/17/falsehoods-programmers-believe-about-names/

Calvin and I were decluttering his room and he found a Mother’s Day present he made for me in what I think was probably 2016.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2018 12:24 PM
Or, maybe it was last year?
2020
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2020 1:19 PM
Calvin is being asked to use one word to describe himself. He objects because the only word to completely describe him is “Calvin”. I suggested that “literal” might be appropriate so he put that down.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2020 1:19 PM
He seems to be leaning in to the literal description for the other questions. For example, when asked what he will be in 20 years, he put down 31.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2020 3:08 PM
Julian just shushed me while I was in a meeting because I was interrupting his audiobook.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2020 5:04 PM
Julian is doubling down on the coco card strategy (similar to development cards in regular Catan) even though he could have won before now if he had just stuck to building castles. Of course, he just won anyway so what do I know.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 13, 2020 5:05 PM
I have just been informed that this means Julian won the magic school bus and I won Ms. Frizzle and the kids. Not quite sure how that works.
