Early Birthday Gifts for the Budding Engineer

Tyler received some early birthday gifts in the mail this week. It's fun to spread the celebration out! School is really getting in his way the past couple days - he just doesn't have enough time in the evenings to put everything together.

Thank you to Aunt Aya, Uncle Andy, Kotomi, & TJ for the great Lego set!












Thanks to Aunt Joyce, Uncle Mike, & Mark for the cool Indiana Jones Legos!












Thanks to Grandma & Grandpa R for the robotic crab kit. This was for ages 10+ and had some small parts, but Tyler was extremely patient and did a great job with it. He and Ron built it in about an hour, maybe 90 minutes. The disappointing part was that after it was all done, it didn't work because the sun was too low (it's solar powered). Tyler tried it after school today, though, and it worked great. He thought it was pretty cool!

Missed this post the first time I looked this a.m. Dad made sure I saw it. He's so proud of himself for picking out Tyler's gift this year. Glad he enjoyed it. Looks cool!
