elves

Enzo woke up in a chipper mood, enjoyed his breakfast of eggs, sausage and papaya and we went off to play at the park. After the park we spent some time at the Waldorf school's annual fundraiser Elves' Faire. There was lots to see and do, and Enzo especially loved the live music (particularly the string quartet - Suzuki method here we come!) as well as the weird elves milling around with crazy things hanging off them. He got to see Miss Adrienne and some of his classmates.

When we got home, we had some lunch and watched some Planet Earth while daddy dealt with the nightmare that is the wall project. Today is the great sprinkler installation nightmare. Enzo took a whopping 2 hour and 15 minute nap which gave mommy the opportunity to do her Thanksgiving shopping.

Unlike this morning, Enzo woke up in a super sour mood after his nap and had one of his inexplicable meltdowns. We let him writhe around on the floor in the living room to work it out, checking on him every minute or so to let him know we were still around but not giving him any extra attention. It seemed to work - he got over it after about 10 minutes then was fine.

We had a great dinner and afterwards ran some family errands in Old Pasadena. Afterwards we played a rousing game of hide and go seek and Enzo played "Bucking Bronco" on daddy and mommy and he thought it was the greatest thing. The dogs were confused and while daddy was on all fours with Enzo riding on his back, they were attacking him and biting his arms and feet. Enzo loved that best of all.
