Why even bother with presents?

I think its a pretty well known fact that little kids end up playing with the packaging more than the gifts inside. \

This is absolutely true with Henrik as well.  Here I made a rather long film of him enjoying some paper that wrapped a nice birthday gift.  I no longer recall what the gift was and I am pretty sure that Henrik did not play with it as much as this piece of paper.
This love of paper extends well beyond gift wrap.  On the rare occasions that we find ourselves in a restaurant, we can keep Henrik happy and quiet by giving him a menu to amuse himself.  At our own meals, a placemat will keep him busy through most meals.  If he finds his way to Claudia's purse and gets his hands on a package of tissues, it is party time.

If you can stick through the relatively long film, you will also be treated to seeing some of Henrik's sweet rolling moves.
