Fire Truck!

I have been slacking on the blog for a couple of weeks now. It has been hard to get back into the rhythm of things since getting back from vacation. Any who, let me tell you a little background information!!

You know about Bubbie's obsession with planes, trains and windmills, but I don't think I've mentioned how WILD he is about Fire Trucks. Whenever we go to play dates, if there is a Fire Truck to play with, Bubbie always makes a b-line to play with it! Several times we had been to the Toy Store(known around here as Toys R Us)and he has asked for a Fire Truck. Finally last week, since he did so well with his first two sessions of speech therapy, we decided to let him pick out a Fire Truck. The one he picked is pictured below and it NEVER leaves his side, NEVER.

When we bought the truck, he carried it in the box on the way home from the store. When we arrived home, he proceeded to try and tear it out of the box, but you know how complicated that packaging can be! Once it was out of the box, he started taking it everywhere with him, even to bed. Yes, to bed. He refuses to go to bed unless he has his blankie and the Fire Truck!

Knowing how crazy Bubbie is about Fire Trucks(he even waves at them as they drive by, LOL!), I decided that we would take the opportunity to tour a local Fire Station with our Meetup group. I had really expected a grand reaction to the trucks when he saw them up close and personal, but once again, I was underwhelmed by his response. Bubbie almost had a I don't care look on his face and then proceeded to play with his Fire Truck. However, since Daddy came home, Fire Trucks is all he has been talking about. I don't know if he truly enjoyed the experience or not, but it sure has seemed to at least make an impression!


He finally posed for a photo with the Fire Truck. He looks so adorable in his Red, White and Blue! His favorite color choices for now.


Kind of hard to see, but this is Bubbie up on the Fire Truck. He was really unsure about this.

Below is a picture of the Fourth of July hair bows that I've been working on this last weekend. They have been a lot of fun to make!
