Because things were so busy we had no time for presents in the morning so we decided to leave it until after work. We had a really great time at Tiny Talk, where he was one of 3 birthday babies (one of whom wasn't there and the other made me feel bad by inviting Nate to their party). After lunch Nate was exhausted so he had a nap. He got up around 3ish and was very grumpy and was the same for the rest of the afternoon/evening which was a shame after such a good morning. After his tea Nathan and I had some birthday cake - he hadn't had any at his party as it was too crowded to get his high chair out and too messy to just let him eat sat on the floor or on someones lap...
He may not look it but he was fairly pleased with the whole cake thing and quietly sang to himself while smooshing it between his fingers...
When John got home we gave Nathan our presents. Apparently the only way to play with mega blocks is to tip them al over the place. Unfortunately the shape sorter we got him was a bit annoying as the lid kept coming off with the slightests pressure but Nate like the Very Hungry Catapiller. He was very tired still so had a bottle of milk while John opened his cards and then headed off to bed - not the most exciting birthday ever but then as he has no idea what a birthday is not suprising really. Mum had intended to come over but had an awful cold so stayed at home to recuperate.
Today, as there was less going on, I have spent a while playing with him, letting him enjoy his toys while pootling round in his bath robe. Blocks are still not to build stuff with but for spread far and wide and then posting under the sofa...
