Father's Day and more

This weekend, Lilly started sleeping in her big girl bed/room! She was ready and excited and has been doing GREAT so far. She looks so little in such a big bed! Here she is on her first night ready for bed.
And waking up the next morning happy!
But maybe a little sleepy!

We had a fun and relaxing Father's Day since I didn't have to work. Here is Mark opening his Father's Day gift from the kids. They painted a coffee cup and put their hand prints on it so Mark has a cup to show off/use at work. (yes, once again, Hayden is wearing a princess costume:) )



Today, Hayden got out of his princess costumes and into his fireman costume. We got to get a tour of a fire station and he didn't want to go without his fireman hat and coat!! We had a fun time. We saw where they slept and ate and then got to go see the BIG fire trucks. I think he was a little intimidated at first and didn't want to get into the truck, but luckily the firemen took their time with him and he finally got in and thought it was GREAT!!


Even got to be the driver!


And so did Lilly!!

Then the fireman showed the kids how he gets into his coat/jacket, hat and oxygen mask and then let all the kids touch and feel how it was. By then, Hayden had warmed up and was excited to go see, but Lilly thought this guy looked a little scary and wanted nothing to do with him!!




When we were done, Hayden asked if they had a fire pole. I think in his mind, he had pictured himself sliding down the pole! Unfortunately, the fire house was too new and Hayden was a little disappointed. Oh, well....he did love being the driver though!!
