Here are my Leatherkid-related Facebook posts from July, August and September, 2011. They are unedited and should generally be assumed to start with “Carla Reiter Leatherman…”
There weren't a lot of posts during this time period, and I really don't remember why that's the case. I do remember vividly the tune to which Cal sang his book-picking-up song on July 21st, and I'm most proud of his rendition of the Notre Dame Fight Song (complete with Leprechaun imitation) on September 16th; but my favorite post during this time period was the one with my mom on August 7th. It certainly made me laugh the most!

Cal: I want a cookie, please.
Daddy: No, Cal, no cookies for breakfast.
Cal: Not for breakfast... I want a cookie for dessert.

enjoyed this exchange between her mom and son earlier this evening:
Grandma: "It's easy to go poopy in the toilet, Cal."
Cal (without any hesitation): "It's easy to go poopy in my DIAPER."

is remembering the days when she rolled out of bed at the crack of dawn to get a training run in and not to change a diaper.
August 17, 2011is proud of Cal for wearing his big-boy undies all day now but wishes he'd just get his pooping done in one "sitting" instead of fifty.

Poor kid has been set up for a lifetime of disappointment... unless the Irish bring Lou back. At least Cal's not a Cubs fan, so he has that going for him.

believes Dan is right when he says we are S-C-R-E-W-E-D... check out this exchange from this AM (2 hours after we proposed stopping for doughnuts on the way home from Grandma's):
Me: Should we stop and get some D-O-U-G-H-N-U-T-S?
Dan: Nah, he won't remember.
Cal: Should we stop and get some D-O-S... get some doughnuts?
Me: Should we stop and get some D-O-U-G-H-N-U-T-S?
Dan: Nah, he won't remember.
Cal: Should we stop and get some D-O-S... get some doughnuts?
I don't remember some of these! Aug 7th is hilarious!
