no school

We started the day with homemade pancakes that mommy made. Enzo and I thought we going to school today, so we got all packed up and headed out. We stopped to get a coffee, and went to look at the big construction site. A huge excavator was scooping up dirt and dumping in to one truck after another. Each time another empty truck came around the corner, he said "another one!" I had him sitting up on the utility box, and we had a perfect view of the action.

We drove up the street for a Jamba Juice. On the way there, we went through the whole alphabet replacing the J's in Jamba Juice - e.g. bamba buice, zamba zuice. Enzo really got in to it, and was laughing and being super silly. He fell asleep soon after getting his smoothie, so I pulled over and let him sleep for a few minutes. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that I'd pulled over one block from a fire station. After about 20 minutes, a truck pulled out of the station with sirens blaring. End of nap.

Enzo was still hacking and sneezing, so I decided we wouldn't go to school. But we had to stop by and drop off snack for the class. Enzo said hi and then bye, and then we went to the park. Enzo was climbing and running all over the place. He was mesmerized by two older boys, about 5 yo, who acting out a fight scene from a Star Wars movie. Great.

We ate lunch back home, and then Alex came to play with Enzo for a few hours.

Enzo came home soon after Zoe, and we ate dinner. Enzo picked at his food, asked for a pop, and made a big mess. As per usual. Then he and mommy played in his kitchen, watched a bit of Totoro and some bats. He got upset about having to upstairs for bath, so it was a quick one. He settled down, and we read him some of his new books. Surprise, he likes the one about the whale and the one about the octopus and the other one about the whale.
