Simple things please tiny men

Three weeks on and Vanessa and I are still trying to work out where to put the huge number of presents Jamie received from so many kind people for Christmas (thanks again to everyone).

However, yesterday I brought something else home for him. To describe it as a "present" would be taking things a little bit to far. And to describe it as exciting would be ridiculous. But it certainly seemed to excite him.

I got him a new changing mat (to replace his old one which he took great pleasure in ripping apart).

Maybe it was because he still has five and a half months to wait for his birthday and doesn't think he'll receive many presents between now and then. Or possibly he just regards changing mats as items of great personal interest - a train spotter of the future, perhaps?

But, whatever the reason, Jamie seemed to determined to make the most of his "surprise."

He was naturally curious as soon as I carried the new accessory through the door, as you can see above.

Next, he wanted a closer inspection.

And then he wanted to go upstairs to try it out.

Thankfully, the experience didn't prove to be an anti-climax.

If only he was always this easy to please.
