Tonight it feels like spring again here in San Clemente. We have all of the windows open and there is a sweetness in the air that is wonderful. Even though there is a big fire burning up north in Annaheim Hills, it's been very clear here and in the upper 70's all day.
We've been pretty low key this weekend. Jared has been whipping up some yummy meals for us and we've been taking advantage of Einar's afternoon nap by taking some naps of our own and reading. Last night we went to Oceanside to have dinner with some of the guys from Jared's old company and their families. We had a good time and they gave the three guys that have left (including Jared) a nice presentation of their plaques.
Einar's table manners have improved this week since the implementation of the Einar's Great Behavior Chart. The chart was created after another morning of having to clean a bowl of oatmeal off of the floor. He can earn stickers for his chart by having great behavior at meals and for cleaning up his toys every night. He has a few x's on the chart, but he's had 10 meals in a row that no food has been flung to the floor on purpose! The stickers are exciting for him and he's very proud to show off his chart, especially to Dad the first night the chart was in service.
