Little B's 6th B'day

Today was Brandon's big day as our little man turned 6 years old. So happy B'day to our "B". Once he woke up today it was lovely to see him run downstairs so excited and even more so once he realised that I was at home so he could have his presents before school. Today must have been the quickest he has ever got dressed and washed and then he even ate his breakfast pretty quickly. I cooked him a special birthday breakfast of boiled eggs, soldiers and bacon. Once breakfast was out of the way it was in to the living room to tear into a pile of presents. This year his interest and the common theme in his presents is Transformers, Infinity 2.0 and Avengers.  
 
His main present for this year was his Flicker scooter and as you may recall from Xmas we had a bit of a dilemma on what size to buy. In the end we went for the smaller blue version knowing that he will only get a years worth of use out of it, but the next size up was just too bog and he couldn't even reach the brake lever. So I think we have made the right decision.

Birthday boy blueberry sweets, yum, yum.
Can you spot a happy B with his presents.
He seemed more interested in playing with his Infinity 2.0 Spiderman character that Joshua bought him rather than opening all his presents.
 
Holly was helping out passing Brandon more presents to unwrap.

He ended up with 5 Swap Force characters but we are now wondering if these will get any use given Brandon's interest in the Infinity 2.0.
Brandon was very excited to finally get the Hulk for Infinity 2.0.
And even more excited with his giant Bumblebee transformer (although I think you need an engineering degree to transform this model!!),
Unfortunately Brandon didn't have much time to play with all his new toys this morning as it was a school day. The school run was good fun though as both boys used their Flickers.
 
Brandon soon got to grips with his new Flicker and was wiggling his bum from side to side to get it going.
After school the boys both had swimming club and then Brandon wanted to go out for dinner. Unfortunately he wanted to go back to the Quays yet again!!! We tried every tactic possible to talk him out of it as we really fancies a change. But he was determined that he wanted the Quays - mainly for the cookie dough pizza!!!!

Tina made Brandon this rather delicious giant cup cake lined with white chocolate fingers and decorated with mini footballs. We took it to the Quays so they could sing happy birthday to him. One of the candles they used kept re-igniting itself which was quite amusing.

To finish Brandon's special day we headed home where he was pleasantly surprised to find uncle Michael and Auntie Lea waiting for him with more presents. Once we had dragged him off of the Infinity 2.0 to actually look at his presents, he was very pleased with his Drift transformer and a very cool Optimus Prime talking / light-up mask.

Happy birthday Optimus B. Hope you had a great day.
His birthday will continue to be spread over the next week as he gets more presents from the family, takes sweets to football club this weekend and then he has his football birthday party scheduled for Saturday week. His present haul for today was: Spiderman Infinity 2.0 set, Hulk Infinity character, bi-plane airfix kit, Skylanders swap force with 2 extra characters, a Brandon race car pen, a Flicker, Bumblebee, Drifter, Optimus Prime Mask, Transformer top trumps, a Queen CDG for his karaoke, a Transormers DVD, Chelsea pyjamas, birthday sweets, £40, a Disney Planes 2 character and some Infinity 2.0 discs. Not bad if you ask me..........
