5/52 - Everyday Life

This was a "slow news week", as they say. But here are a few snapshots.

Anders is obsessed with the show Octonauts. It's an animated show about animals living under the sea, interacting with - and usually saving - a different marine animal each episode. He keeps asking me when the next season is going to be available on Netflix.

For Christmas, he received several Octonaut toys suitable for bath play. He switched to showers quite a while ago, but the new toys enticed him to take a rare bath. We won't get opportunities like this with Anders for much longer.

Anders is reading the book Wonderstruck, which is an interesting combination novel and graphic novel. When he finished, he said it was "the best book he ever read."

In addition to Octonauts and PBS's Nature, Anders has decided that Ask This Old House is one of his favorite shows! He probably already knows more about home repair than I do.
