Firestation Tour and Summer Fun!

Sydney having lots of fun playing in the water. We have been going to either the splash park, or pool pretty much everyday because it is SO hot outside already! The girls love the water!


They like to lay out their towels and take a snack break at the splash park. The water always seems to make them so hungry!


Last thursday we took a tour of a local firestation with some friends and their kiddos from church. The girls loved checking out the firestation and firetruck! The tour went great until they got called out to a fire while we were there so we had to clear out quickly. It was still very cool!

The fireman putting Jayda up in the fire truck. Woo-hooo! The kids were all SO excited to get inside!


Sydney was not too sure about the fire truck. She eventually got in and then wanted right back out.


Jayda having fun up in the fire truck with her little buddy Carson.


Sydney actually got in the fire truck and sat in the seat for a few seconds when all the big kids got out, but it didn't last very long.


Jayda was very excited, at first, to get into the ambulance.


Jayda was very brave and said she would let the fireman monitor her heart rate to show all the kiddos how it worked. She sat there very still and did good, but after we left she said that she really didn't like that ambulance and didn't ever want to go in one again. She said that she did love the firetruck.


So excited to get her fireman hat. Yay!


Sydney was not a big fan of the hat though and wanted nothing to do with it. Figured out later that she actually didn't like the little string underneath the hat.


Jayda's little friends from church that we did the firestation tour with.


Jayda dressed up in her little tutu outfit the other day and enjoyed some sherbert during "rest time".


Sweet girl all ready for a tea party with mommy.


Concentrating very hard to pour that "tea".


Daddy being such a good sport, as always, and wearing the fireman hat that Jayda wanted him to.


Jayda layed out some blankets the other night so that we could watch a movie before bed and Sydney came over and just layed out on the little pallet. It was so cute.


The girls taking a ride on the "horsey". This game is played most nights when daddy gets home from work. Too cute!


Little missy has learned how to walk around in Jayda's dress up high heels. It is the funniest thing to see her walking around in these heels, especially since her little foot is about 1/3 the size of the shoe! She just wants to do everything the big girls do!


The girls were "getting married" to daddy the other night. They LOVE their daddy!


Sydney having fun at the pool and using the pool ring as a teething toy. Poor thing has more teeth coming in that just won't stop bothering her.


The little "runaway baby" as I like to call her! She runs away ALL the time at the pool! She always wants to go wherever we are not, so it makes for an interesting time at the pool. She'd rather run around the pool and explore everything outside of the pool than actually swim inside the pool. She is going to wear me out this summer!


Jayda getting ready to go up the slide. She loves going down this slide!


Weeeeeeee!!!
