Today we headed to Decatur for Touch-A-Truck Day. Liam really enjoyed himself until the other children found the horns. And the sirens. And began engaging in an unspoken contest to see who could make the most obnoxious noise. At this point we headed over to the park. Liam had a ball and I’ve got my fingers crossed that it results in a great nap.
We arrived early (I know, we were shocked, too…) so we decided to walk around the Square for a bit. Liam loved the giant lights in front of the courthouse:
And the gazebo:
And the ramp on the gazebo:
And the ceiling of the gazebo:
And…he’s off!
“Look, Mama! A square and some rectangles!”
A boy and his Pop:
A boy and his Grammie:
“I see you, Mama!”
Bring on the trucks!
Getting up into the cab:
“Look at all the buttons!”
Aftermath of the first siren (he was carried for most of the remaining time we spent with the trucks):
Fire truck!
Testing out the stairs on the fire truck:
Whozits and whatzits, and whirlygigs, oh my!
Brief siren respite:
Garbage truck (that face Liam’s making is totally warranted, by the way):
Riding the garbage truck with Dad:
Ahhh, a swing:
Just what the doctor ordered:
“Weeeeeee!”
Spinning with Dad:
The steep slide:
It was a great morning and now it’s time for a long nap for everyone.
Ah. These people are able to run. I will be able to do that again, soon.
