What-What?! Week of May 10th

Happy Mother's Day!

This last week was Osric's birthday! He turned 8 -- he's gotten so big now.

The cake turned out delicious -- red velvet and strawberry frosting.  Oz helped me make the frosting, and now has successfully used the stand mixer (oh my!).

Wound up putting some Warhammer 40K minis on the cake -- he wanted orcs, and this was the closest/easiest thing we had available.


He was pretty excited about his presents :)


This is a discontinued Lego set that the husband managed to find -- Oz has asked for it for a good long while now, he's very happy to have it.

Some miniatures of his own

Pictures for this one and the next came out terrible -- it's an Iron Man and Thanos mech Lego sets.  These are actually quite cool for being such little sets -- they are well articulated, including hands, so you can do all kinds of action poses and create accessories for them too.



One of the other gifts -- this is a car where you can take apart/put back together various pieces.  When he asked for it, I was a bit surprised since it seemed kind of simple, but it's had plenty of play, both from him and his siblings.

The last big thing we got for him was this new scooter -- it's a larger-wheeled one than most scooters you see around nowadays, and just a bit big for him.  That said, he loves this thing; he has gone out and played on it around every single day.  We've been lucky that the weather has cooperated.
