awesome
After he got nice and tired we went home and threw the ball and turned the hose on for the dogs. Enzo was very helpful in pointing out all the doggy land mines in the yard for mommy to pick up. He just points and yells, "pooooop!" Mommy and Enzo snuggied for awhile and watched some Totoro right before daddy got home.
Daddy and Enzo shared a lunch of leftover ribs, and Enzo was happy gnawing on bones. He took a 2 hour nap in his crib, a rarity these days. He woke up in the best mood, as he always does after a 2 hour nap. We ate lunch, a hot dog bagel. When he reached down and yanked the hot dog out from inside the bagel, he looked at it and said, "awesome". We went on a bike ride down street and around the block and finished lunch along the way. He was especially loved his satsuma mandarin oranges that mommy got from the Japanese market today and was munching on then on his bike. We said hi to the neighbors (they asked, where's your broom?), and found dandelions to blow on.
At home he and daddy painted another masterpiece and played outside with the dogs for a bit. The Metcalfs came over for dinner and Enzo had a great time at dinner. He had just eaten a big lunch so wasn't that hungry for our early dinner, but he sat happily in his chair, talking back and forth with Luke. After dinner, the boys did some climbing and sliding and swinging before coming inside to play. Enzo was happy to share his train and kitchen with his friends.
We had a nice bath then had some milk, after which he asked for more milk, then a snack (we went downstairs and had a little more dinner and another orange), then more milk again. Another growth spurt. Enzo was soooo easy and fun and cute today, saying all sorts of silly things, and literally not a moment of fussiness.
