Ben's end-of-year accomplishment

 

We've got a cube in our house

 His name is still Oscar, and he's pretty gr8!

Do you have to take picture of me??? I want to revel in my loot!

What a cheezer!

Oscar requested a three-layer blue blueberry cake with yellow lemon frosting - I didn't make enough to cover the top but he said that was ok. It was the bluest cake I have ever eaten, and tasted a lot like a blueberry donut. Even better with coffee for breakfast! Good pick Oscar!

First present: a sack full of bones from Baba Yaga

Bone number one

Bone number three

Bone number...SIX!!

Bone number eight

Any more bones for me?

YESSSSS!

Present number two: an impossible-to-extract husband from Baba Yaga

Ah, yes, a new throne. Perfect.

More bones, are you kidding me?

No it's Mad Libs from Aunt Elizabeth! We'll be tortured by being forced to think of plural nouns and adverbs ending in -ly, for days. And then listening to incomprehensible giggling as Oscar tries to read back a story that seems to be about poop and butts.....again. But (ha) really, it's great, there's nothing like Mad Libs hilarity.

I know. More books.

Pa-JA-mas.

More. clothes. wat.

John kept saying, when will he get a TOY???

New kicks!

John is over. it.

We had to hide the Cul de Sac book from Oscar so we could move on with the birthday activities.

Last present. This one's from Gramma. Big moment.

It's square. But not a book.

It says, "Animal." "Crossing."

It's for the Switch!

John says, "Really?"

"Yes, this is the game Animal Crossing for the Nintendo Switch!"

Oscar expounds on how to play Animal Crossing from his throne.

Oscar had the most epic, prolonged extinguishing of the candles. Just watch.

Happy birthday Oscar! What a happy day he had!
