grumpy bird

Zoe had the morning off today. After morning milk, we ran out to VW to drop off my car and then to DDC to drop off the dogs for the day. We attempted breakfast at Peets, but Enzo was much more interested in running around than eating. We stopped by Garfield Park, which was great. Alex takes him there sometimes, but we'd never been there with him before.

Back home, Enzo went down a good morning nap. Before Zoe had to head into work, we ran back out to get the wagon, and then I took Enzo to lunch. Wes and Owen met us there with their parents. We'd already just about finished our meal when they got there, but Enzo stayed in his chair for another 45 minutes while they ate. He also continued to eat the whole time. I finally cut him off. He spent the next 15 minutes walking around staring at people and waving to them too.

We went back home and laid around on the couch, reading books and playing with toys. Mommy came home just before I put him down for another nap. I ran out to get the dogs, and while I was gone Grumpy Bird woke up in sour mood. He'd finally calmed down when we returned, and I took him around the block in the pack.

After dinner, Enzo spend some time playing frisbee with dogs in the backyard. Every time he bent down to pick up the frisbee, one of the dogs would jump up and yank it out of his hand and then shake it around. He thought that was great.

We went on our family walk, and then the usual countdown to bedtime.
