Calvin slept in really late today. He just woke up.

Calvin is interacting more with his books. Today he started patting all the baby faces.

Just got back from Rocky Mountain National Park and grocery shopping. Now to feed Calvin.

Calvin had a bowel movement and managed to get his hand dirty. Naturally the next thing he did was rub his face :S

I found a disemboweled cricket in the basement this morning. No doubt Willow’s fault.

Got both 9-grain and rye breads started as well as the beans in the slow cooker. I’m feeling productive today :)
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2010 12:12 PM
I put my 9 grain bread in and forgot to start a timer.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2010 12:13 PM
Now I’m taking thermometer readings on the bread’s interior hoping I can guess when it’s done.

Good thing I already got supper made. Calvin isn’t feeling well so he’s very cuddly.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2010 2:12 PM
Well, my bread ended up with a really thick crust but other than that seems ok.

Calvin loves the yellow pear cherry tomatoes I bought at Vitamin Cottage.

To me, fresh beets always look like Sentinels from _The Matrix_.

Calvin is now cuddly with daddy (it sounds cute but it means he’s still not feeling good).

From daycare: “Calvin enjoyed drawing with chalk.”
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2011 2:08 PM
In other news, it appears they really do yoga at daycare as Calvin demonstrated Downward Facing Dog for me.

Today Calvin is learning how to use a computer mouse. This is definitely a practice in fine motor skills.
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2011 3:42 PM
I spent last night configure “Calvin’s computer” so he could click on it and go to a white list of allowed internet sites.

Not surprisingly, Sesame Street is winning at the moment.

Calvin’s current favorite phrase, “It was a disaster!”
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2012 4:05 PM
Mental note, check the pool schedule _before_ you tell Calvin he can go swimming.

Calvin appears to be mistaking me for a horse. Again.

We’re going backpacking today and I just threw up. What could possibly go wrong?

We visit the new and improved Crestview park: https://kiesa.festing.org/wordpress/2015/08/23/crestview-park-boulder-co/

Oh good, it didn’t fall apart in terrible ways.
[Context: Calvin and Uncle Willy did a rocket launch together.]

I think I’m on the correct train . . .
[Context: I think this is when I took the train to a user group in Puyallup, WA.]

Glad I had some familiarity with commuter rail. The signage is lacking (which was true of Caltrain also. I think they forget everyone has a first time at least once.)
Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Aug 23, 2018 7:56 AM
Also, going to Mountain View I had a reverse commute, but not nearly as extreme as this. I’m the only one is my section of the car. It’s weird but there’s plenty of room to lounge.
