Okay yes I realize this is getting a little excessive! But today was Ryder’s actual Birthday so we couldn’t just let it go by with no celebrating! We told Ryder he could have anything he wanted for his Birthday dinner and he picked Hotdogs & Corn…so that’s what we had. After dinner he got one last Birthday surprise:
It’s an Octonauts Octopod Playset!! Can you believe it??!! You really won’t believe it once I tell you the back story. The Octonauts is a new show that just recently started airing in the United States. Ryder saw it on TV at Nana’s one day and came home asking over and over to watch it (he thinks I instantly have every show he could ever want to watch recorded). Luckily I checked YouTube and there were plenty of episodes on there he could watch, only problem is those shows were the ones from the UK, where the show originated, which meant Ryder started seeing commercials for the toys that went along with the show. When this was his #1 request on his Birthday list, I checked everywhere online only to find that they don’t sell this stuff in the stores in the United States! Greeeeaaaattt. So obviously, I made my first ever International purchase. And paid International shipping. Needless to say, when they start selling this in the US stores for $29.99…it might burn just a little. But it was worth the price to make his Birthday wish come true.
Now this officially ends the Birthday posts…until next year! :)
