Dillon's THIRD Birthday!

Our sweet little boy turned three today... He seemed to enjoy it, he got a happy meal for lunch (when we go we normally don't get those) so he was pretty excited.  Later that afternoon both sets of grandparents came over for cupcakes (thanks for making those Grandma G) and presents.  Auntie Kina was even able to make it a little later.  He was VERY excited to blow out his candles and he loved opening his presents!  He thought it was just fantastic that he got to be the center of attention!


 Dancing for the new car parking garage!
 I think we're stepping into "I want to be a fireman when I grow up" territory!  Notice his lips, he was making the "water spraying" sound. 
We were going to have cousins over for some play time but they're all sick so we'll reschedule that for another time.  I don't think he noticed so it's okay.

Fire Station "Field Trip"

Kayda's preschool class had a "field trip" to the fire station today.  Since parents bring the kids and are supposed to stay I was able to bring Dillon as well.  Dillon made a friend immediately, I thought it was funny that he chose a little boy named Dylan to befriend.  They played around most of the time together.  Of course it made it more difficult to get him to listen when he was supposed to but we managed.  I got to meet Kayda's friend Ellie that she has been telling me about also. 

Here they are getting ready to watch the fire safety video.
 Waiting to see the fire truck.
 They waited SO well in line to go in the fire truck.  They were both dancing around and jumping up and down with excitement to go in. 

 They got to walk all the way through the fire truck!



 One of the firemen put on the equipment so the kids could see it.  He talked to them with the speaker on the mask and everything!
 Here's Kayda's whole class on the fire truck.  Dillon was pretty upset he didn't get to be in this picture.
 Snack time!  Dillon didn't get to sit at the table because they barely managed to get their class around it. 
 Each of the kids got a fire hat, a badge sticker and a 911 book.  Kayda and Dillon had a great time showing them off later.
