baboon

We knew Enzo was awake this morning because we heard his music turn on over the monitor. When we went in he was dancing alone in the dark in his crib to his music. Funny kid. We had french toast this morning and he managed to eat without much protest. Mommy had to leave early for work. We tried to go to the Rose Bowl to play fetch, but they were working on the field, so we came home and went for a walk instead.

Nanny Note: We went to the zoo. We saw the tigers, gorillas, lions, giraffes, bears, gibbons, tortoise and alligator. Enzo loved the tortoise ("turdle") the most. We had lunch and played at the park at the top of the hill. Enzo fell asleep in the car on the way home. We watched Planet Earth and went to Grandma Jean's. Enzo ran around playing with the cat.

When mommy came home, Enzo was happy to see her and went running into the kitchen and asked for a kiss right away. Then in his next breath he asked to watch the fish on tv. Funny that he had been home with daddy for awhile before mommy came home and he didn't mention the tv at all. I guess we know who the push over is.

He did great with dinner, and ate his pasta and ribs. He managed to gnaw on a little riblet. After dinner we played with his trains for a long time then he sat on the couch with mommy and went through the entire Jolviet ZOO-ology book and he pointed at and named as many animals as he could. He impressed mommy because he knew "baboon".

We had a nice bath, then read lots of books (his current favorite is Madeline, which mommy loves because of all the Paris pictures), then played with his pile of frogs, dinosaurs, insects and turtles. We are looking forward to seeing him in the morning.
