We went over to the firehouse to say hi to my friend & co-wroker as he worked the motorcycle poker run. While there, they had the firetrucks out. Ray immediately says "the firetrucks are awake!!!" (we always tell him they are sleeping when they are in the garage) So we go over to look and not only do they let him get INSIDE, but start it up (at what 4.15 a gallon for gas..ouch) and blow the horns and siren (um..."Sireen") which Ray wasnt too happy about. it's alot louder up close. But he had a great time...hell, I wanted to get in and blow the Sireen! RayRay was too scared to actually push the buttons. They turned the lights on, moved the seat up for him so he could reach the steering wheel, offered for him to wear the hat and headphones...Sheesh these guys were nice! He showed us around the firehouse AND let Ray drink from their very special fireman's water fountain and its special fireman water! (lol) He was given an invitation to come back any time he wanted....So Thank you fireman Sgt. Joey..you were one very cool dude!
Oh, and RayRay tells me that the choo choo was waay louder than the firetruck! (heehee)
Did I mention that we got to see some motorcycles too? Cool, but not nearly as cool as the firetrucks! Love this Mommy Job!!
please ignore my tired/without glasses spelling..eek! lol!
ReplyDeletethat's so cool! You guys are on a roll huh? Train, Firetruck, Motorcycles... what's next? boats, planes, tractors?? ;)
ReplyDeletewell, boats would probably have been 1st except all my boating buddies boats went down in the hurricane overload a few yrs back. He has been on the paddleboat since I know the owener (at the city docks) but I doubt he remembers it. He did that at 6 mos old :)
ReplyDeleteand tractors.....heehee daddy drives a tractor! (every lawn mower is a tractor)... I want to say weve been in a rig, but I cant remember if Ray got to sit in my girlfriends 18 wheeler or not..I think not. at least not while outside the uterus! I just really like finding cool things like this to do with Ray and people are so nice when you have a little kid that wants to see :)
THat is so cool! I love that first pic of him looking inside at all the gadgets. Kids are so curious, and I love to see how their little minds work when exploring. hehe
ReplyDeleteI have lots of plans for this summer and I want to get the mommies and the kids involved. Although I have some mommy only ideas too!
