TRANSFORMER MANIA!

It's official, my baby boy is now, {gulp} 6!! My G has been LOVING Transformers the last little while and although he struggles with transforming his Transformers and ends up popping off legs, arms, heads etc... he does remarkably better than me! Funny, as I typed that he came up behind me to pop body parts back on. Anyway, I obviously did a Transformers themed party and decorated with true Bumblebee colors (Bumblebee is the name of a Transformer for all you non-boy mommies). To not overwhelm G, we just let him dig into his presents as soon as he woke up so he could have the satisfaction of knowing what he got all day and wouldn't get cranky about us making him wait. We then did cake after lunch and party favors a little later and then had the GRAND FINALE....

G picked out this Batman Castle, he was jumping up and down with excitement when he got it.
We got him one of those cards that plays music and talks when you open it. Nevermind the fact that he is "reading" it upside down, it was just cool that Optimus Prime was wishing him a "Happy Birthday!".
Oh Boy! This child wore his new Bumblebee costume ALLLL DAAYYY LOOONNGGG!

We gave little R a consolation present. We pulled it out when her brother started getting upset that she wanted to play with HIS new toys. It worked, she was happy.
Pretty much how baby R spent the morning while watching G open presents. Yes, that fist is always shoved in her mouth.

And the GRAND FINALE!!! We bought the kids a bounce house which they LOVE! What kid (or mom and dad too) wouldn't?? It's safer than a trampoline and it helps G regroup really well.

Little R never wanted to leave the, "castle" as she calls it, so we had to bribe her with pizza to get out.

Overall, it was a smooth day for G, no tantrums, no headbanging, nothin'! I guess I can chalk up the day as a SUCCESS!! YAY FOR MOMMY!! (ok, dad too, he did pay for everything).
