5th Birthday in Hollywood!!!

Tuesday was a "stay at home" day. We hung around Maw Maw's pool and just relaxed. Pretty much everyone went home on Tuesday morning. Papa & Grandma Pati came over to Maw Maw's in the morning before they had to leave for the airport. They brought Ollie another birthday present!
Ollie got real work gloves like Papa's!
Okay, who thinks this is a good idea? Don't hit your head Aunt Erin!
Ollie's turn!
She's surfing!
Wednesday morning - Ollie's 5th Birthday!!! There was a singing card and a transformer balloon waiting for Ollie in the kitchen when he woke up!
He talked Maw Maw into letting him open one present in the morning! She got him a box of "terrorists" to play with his army men.
Later that morning we headed out to Hollywood!
We ate lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe in Hollywood. Tyler was looking at some song lyrics by Led Zeppelin. They had a TV right by our table that played the music videos of whatever song was on at the time. Very cool!
The waitress had Ollie stand on his chair and yelled to the whole restaurant that it was his 5th birthday and the whole restaurant yelled "Happy Birthday" to him! He was a little shy and was not expecting that at all!
I think he is still wondering what just happened.
We walked around outside for a bit and there were a lot of characters wandering around. Of course they make it clear to you that they expect tips for any pics you take with them.

Since Ollie turned 5 everything is bigger! His hands and feet grew and he is taller. He was checking to see if his hands were as big as the "governator's"!


There was a huge crowd - it was just crazy there!
Batman, Wonderwoman, Robin & Superman all gave Ollie high fives and told him happy birthday. Ollie was star struck by Batman and immediately turned shy and would not get in the picture. So Maw Maw took a pic with them for Ollie. Ollie did not like Robin picking Maw Maw up! He was afraid Robin would drop her. What an awesome surprise for Ollie to meet Batman! He really thinks he is the real one!
Look at that face. He was so happy to give Batman a high five!

When we got home it was time to celebrate Ollie's birthday! He wanted an Ironman cake.
Waiting to open presents is so hard!
Maw Maw got Ollie a "big boy" suitcase. Good thing too we need something to get all these toys home!





Pinata time!






Ollie talked Tyler into helping him build his Lego firetruck!
