We started our day with another visit to see the construction site. Lots of action today. The big front loader filling up trucks with dirt, and then up the ramp.

We stopped into Borders across the street to look for a new book. I'm feeling like we own every good children's book in his age bracket. We looked for 30 minutes and found one book we liked.

After Borders, we headed across town to get dim sum. It took forever for our food to arrive, but Enzo hung in there, and then devoured his shumai and sticky rice in lotus leaf. He was close to falling asleep on the way home, but we made it back and Enzo got a second wind. We played with trains, rode around the block in his new tricycle, and watched some Planet Earth, Deep Ocean.

We headed out to check out some Play-Well playground equipment we're thinking about for Christmas. He thought we were at the best playground on Earth. Must have been 50 slides, forts, swings, and a whole row of little houses too. He was going bananas running in and out of the houses. Yelling, "ma ma", "da da".

When we got home, he was very ready for a nap, and slept for a little over an hour.

We played around the house a bit, and then went up to the Metcalfs to eat dinner and watch the USC game. Enzo, Luke, and Gabe had a great time playing together. Enzo of course liked all their train gear. All the kids did well at dinner, and then got a Rice Crispy treat for dessert. The highlight of Enzo's night was sitting slack-jawed in front of Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin for about 10 minutes.

Back home, we did our usual ritual — bath, books, brush and bed. During his bath, Zoe ran the faucet to entertain Enzo. We kept asking if he was done, and he kept saying "more". We let him sit there for a while, then Zoe finally said, "OK Enzo, one more minute". Enzo paused, looked at her, and said "two".
