So our Carlsbad mommy group took a field trip to Carlsbad Fire Station #2. It was so cool and so much fun! They taught us fire safety, stop - cover your face (this one was new to me) - drop - and roll, what to do in case of emergency, and the most common infant/toddler emergencies.
During their presentation all Gavin wanted to know is what was in their cabinets.
Gavin was amazed with the hose coming out of the ceiling.
One of the firefighters got all dressed up in the yellow get-up explaining to us how important it is that our little ones are not afraid of them in that outfit so that they have an easier time rescuing them. Gavin had absolutely no fear of the outfit at all.
Then the fireman put on his oxygen mask and did the Darth Vader breathing and Gavin freaked out. He cried hysterically for five minutes, then clung to mommy for the rest of the trip. I couldn't even get him to go back into the garage. I do not have a picture of this, I shoved the camera in my pocket and held him tightly. My poor little man.
