Holdyn's favorite firefighter was on duty yesterday so of course we had to go for a visit. We usually leave with some kind of 'goodie' from fireman Jim but he topped it all yesterday. He gave Holdyn the assistant chief's retired firefighter helmet. Holdyn is in LOVE. He slept with it last night. When I get some time I am going to replace some of the reflective stickers (some are peeling off) and it says Assistant Fire Chief on it and I think I will get some letters and put his first or last name on the helmet as well. He loves the 'visor' and how he can pull it down over his face to protect himself from all of the smoke when he enters a fire!
Today was Holdyn's class picture at school. He has 4 fire shirts he alternates between wearing to school each day. I prepared him yesterday that he was NOT allowed to wear his normal fire t-shirts for picture day, but right after the picture he could change and put on his fire badge shirt. He agreed with that idea. He has had this firetruck vest for a good 6 months that he (for some odd reason) has REFUSED to ever wear. Well I held him down like a horrible mother and forced it on him. I wanted to capture his personality at this age in the picture without the faded regular t-shirts! He made sure his t-shirt was in his bookbag so he can change asap! He took his fire helmet to school today to show his teachers and all of his friends. He is SO excited!
Baby sister running away from me cause she didn't want to take bubba to school. She just wanted to play outside!
