About a week ago we finally had a small amount of thunder while Relia was awake. She was sitting in her high chair (which is quickly dropping out of her life) and we heard a low distant rumble. She looked at me and I asked her what it was. She looked thoughtful for a moment and said, "Trucks".
We talked about introducing her to fireworks this year. I love to go to a good firework show and we have some good options in our neck of the woods. We talked about whether or not she's old enough to handle them or not. Then the FP Gal pointed out that they won't start until 10p and that's well past her bedtime. That meant we could a) keep her up late b) wake her back up or c) wait until next year. Obviously the right answer is c.
But the neighborhood fireworks start much earlier than 10p. We just had our first loud one of the day at 330p. She looked a little startled but didn't cry or anything. We asked her what it was and again she said, "trucks'.

We had a one year old at the fireworks tonight and she didn't seemed fazed in the least bit by the noise. And her four year old brother runs around like a crazed madman, he gets so excited by the noise. It's all in the approach.
