upchuck-y cheese

Enzo and I made our usual Friday morning trip out to doggie day care around 7:30AM. We stood at the glass wall for a while and watched Betty and Harriet mix it up with the big dogs. Enzo munched his Starbucks croissant on the drive home, and we had a nice breakfast cheese sandwich and fruit that mommy prepared while we were out.

Nanny Note: We read books, played with blocks, took a walk and Enzo drove his little red car up and down the street. Before nap, we read a few more books and played outside in the water. After nap, we went to Garfield Park to play. Enzo had fun playing in the sand with his toys, riding the toy airplane and truck. When we got home, we played with the water table. Enzo got drenched - he sure loves water. After water play, we changed clothes and watched Good Night Gorilla, played with blocks again then took a walk.

When I got home from work, Enzo was dancing like crazy to his little Japanese song book. Again and again and again, pressing the touch pad to start another song and continue his jig. Zoe got home with the dogs soon and told me the news that we were expected to meet the Metcalfs at Chucky Cheese. I figured we could try anything once, so away we went. It was pretty unbelievable. I mean, Zoe and I were speechless. Kids and parents running around screaming, guzzling huge sodas and gulping down pizza and cheese sticks, video games, flashing lights, and on the way out, vomit under a booth table near the exit. Enzo was sort of in shock, but managed to hang in there and eat some dinner. When Zoe said we were going, I grabbed Enzo and practically ran out. He was very tired when we got home, and went straight to bed after his bath and a couple bedtime stories.
