Henry slept in this morning until 7.45am. We were all awake very early expecting him to be jumping out of bed at 6am like he usually does. When he did wake he didn't want to get out of bed but just lay there under the covers. We finally coaxed him out and set about dumping gifts on his lap. Gandpa and Grandma had each sent him a parcel from the US stacked full of wonderful goodies. He just wasn't sure which thing he wanted the most. He was very quiet and methodical in his approach to them.

We then took him to the sandpit we put outside for him hoping he'd like to play with his new trucks in it but he wasn't as excited as we thought. He hated the fact that the sand made them dirty and we had to wash them. He doesn't like the sand and gets upset if he gets it on his hands. I have to teach him to get dirty!
