I think Calvin has officially started cooing. Now if only he’d sleep for a couple more hours.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 8:54 AM
Okay, sleep is a lost cause. Calvin is fully awake.

It’s too bad babies don’t come with signs that say things like, “I’m hungry”, “I’m sleepy”, “I’m just cranky”.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 12:07 PM
I think Calvin is cluster feeding.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 12:17 PM
I’ve been feeding Calvin off and on since 10:30.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 12:23 PM
Whew, he’s sleeping (at least for 2 seconds).

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 12:39 PM
Yeah, I spoke too soon.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 1:55 PM
Well, he slept for about 30 minutes. Just long enough for me to pump.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 2:31 PM
Hungry again?

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 3:46 PM
Well, looks like he’s hungry again. After all, it’s been a full hour since he ate.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2009 5:10 PM
Well, Calvin did sleep except I was holding him at the time and was afraid to move.

Took Calvin on a walk after Sabbath school so he could take a nap.

From daycare, “Calvin enjoyed reading _The Carrot Seed_!”

Calvin passed his hearing test with flying colors.

My holds are coming in for vacation. I’m so excited! Reading, by myself, only me!!

[I still remember this as one of my best vacation ever.]

The good news is I’m not tired. The bad news is Julian is pretty cranky today.

Mommy exercise: running up and down the stairs to put the pacifier back in baby’s mouth.

Someday I’m going to remember to grab my cookbooks before starting the baby swing.

The internet is succeeding in messing with my head.

Considering whether Amazon Fresh is worth the $299 after all since Safeway’s delivery service doesn’t allow hyphenated last names.

Most of our rose bushes are blooming.

Picture of a rose. The rose is pink with the pink getting darker at the edges of the petals. The leaves are dark green.

Calvin and I are making supper tonight together!

Calvin cooking. Calvin stands in front of a stove pour a can of tomatoes into a cast iron pan. He's wearing safety goggles.

I’m listening to a book called House Lust which is about the US’ obsession with houses. It was published in 2008. He’s admiringly talking about interest rates for 30-year mortgages being below 7%. It’s astonishing when you look at mortgage rates today.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom May 15, 2021 11:57 AM
He’s also talking about people who got adjustable rate interest only loans for houses and wow does that bring back memories. I still remember when I sat down and read the loan papers after signing (because we hadn’t seen them prior to closing. Ahhh!) and realized what we signed.

We’re very, very lucky we had the skills to create our own amortization charts and enough money to pay down the principal.

Huh. Apparently my Fitbit mistakes piano practicing for walking. Well, I guess that’s an easy way to get steps in.
