Sunday — Today was super hero day. Enzo spent most of the day playing with his pocket Superfriends and his doll house. He went on for hours talking to and for his "new guys". He actually spent all day talking, and said a couple funny things to us - "you understand me?" and "i can't take it!"

Enzo and I donned our red caps, and flew around and around the house until Enzo flopped down on the floor saying, "i'm tired!" After dinner tonight, we drove to Target to try to find a Robin action figure to complete his collection, but had no luck. When we got home, he said he was tired and wanted to go to sleep. Trying to put him to sleep early was a mistake. He got a second wind and spent nearly two hours goofing around and jumping in and out of bed, and didn't fall asleep until almost 9:30.

Monday — Enzo woke up and crawled into bed with us for some stories. Zoe started to read him a Japanese folktale about a monkey and a crab, but he stopped her and said, "a monkey and a crab? what, are you crayzeeee!" We laughed, so he said it 20 more times. Later that morning, he said "i want my wee wee to come out and say hi to me!" We had breakfast at the bakery with Zoe before she went to work, and then back home to meet Alex.

Zoe picked Enzo up from school today. He was happy to see her, but then wanted to go home. They managed to make it through a few songs before Enzo was really ready to go home. Before bed tonight, we all played hide and seek. Enzo gets a huge kick out of chasing us around the house. He loves to be surprised, so we hide around corners and in closets and behind doors, and then jump out and grab him. He shrieks and says, do it again.

Tuesday — Zoe was up and out early this morning. Enzo and I spent some time watching Blue Planet, and then headed out to Cindy's for the usual. Same old cast of characters there. Enzo was especially cute this morning, and he put smiles on the faces of a lot of grouchy half-asleep people at the diner. We played with the elite Superfriend team (Superman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman) and ate a big breakfast.

I picked him up from Pacific Oaks today. The teacher said it was his best day yet. Apparently, he spent most of the hot day (almost 100 degrees today!) sitting in a big red tub of water playing with a plastic octopus and puffer fish. We sang songs and then went to the car.

The power went out on our block during dinner, so we walked down the block to chat with the neighbors. It didnt come back on right away, so we drove out to the VW dealership to look at the new Routan minivan. They just came out a couple days ago, so they were only two on the lot, neither of which we wanted. But most likely will get it in the coming months. It is so huge compared to the Passat wagon, and comes loaded with an array of insane features. It will be a fun family car. Enzo climbed in one, and said, "it's so big!"
