Fire Station Visit – Abby's Conundrum

Lucky for me, we were able to visit the fire station the week that our theme was fire engines! What a happy camper Caidoc was !

He was quite taken with the engines, not so much the firemen. He had a hard time sitting still listening to them talk. I don't really blame him, they expected the kids to sit and listen right in front of the fire engines! Caidoc just wanted to touch, tough, touch :) which, he eventually did get to do. — He was quite taken with the engines, not so much the firemen.

Zelie was exremely unimpressed and just wanted to nap :\ — Zelie was extremely unimpressed and just wanted to nap :\

Caidoc was very perplexed about the fireman crawling on the ground

He was so excited to touch a “weeooweoo” aka fire engine! Haha! Such a funny little man. At the end of the tour he got a super cool hat. I should have gotten one for Zel because she is jealous of it and put a it on whenever Caidoc isn’t looking. She’s such a funny girl!!

More than one person commented that, ” that hat just belong on him” since he looked so handsome. I wouldn’t mind if he just sat behind a desk though 🙂 I think his toddler years are giving me enough gray hair as is.

This week was a big success with homeschooling, we covered the color red, letter F, and number 3, with the theme of firemen and fire engines.

He really enjoyed getting covered in paint while making this fire engine out of a box and toilet paper rolls

This week has been INSANELY busy. I’m definitely over committed right now. It should get better in the next few weeks, but till then I’m trying to not let all my stress overload on hubs and the kids. I also tend to stress eat. So I’m trying to run instead. I only have a few more sessions of my yoga classes and I’m trying to fit those in as well to help cope with all the stress. At least that’s thew plan!

More updates later on all the plates we have spinning …

Dear Caidoc; Thank you for the “red” thank you note and Easter stickers. Your day at the fire station looks like it was sooo fun. And you look pretty good standing by that big fire engine!

Abby, you are doing such a great job of documenting the family happenings. What a treasure to have these stories and photos, in the years ahead! (and a gift to this grandma who likes to keep up from across the miles.)

Give ’em all a smooch for me 😉
