More WATER!!

We have recently moved our water playing activities into the bathroom so Mom doesn't have to clean up water (our bathroom floor is heated so the water dries really quickly) and Odin absolutely has a blast. Every time we go in the bathroom he climbs up on the chair and squeals with delight...he can turn the water on and off and adjust the flow of water without any help. He's also pretty good about turning the water off when we ask him..."Odin the water is going to overflow, you need to turn the water off and let some drain!"
Although Odin really loves splashing in the water most, he also enjoys checking himself out in the mirror...
The only part about water play that Odin doesn't like is when it comes to an end...if we don't have a good distraction for him, leaving the sink can result in one serious heartbreaking tantrum!

Early this week we were blanketed with snow and it seems every night we get a little bit more. We are now living in a cold winter wonderland. The snow is so beautiful and it really helps brighten this amazingly dark place. Today the sunrise was 9:30 and sunset 1:45! But we will be getting more light starting tomorrow; today is the Vintersolståndet (Winter Solstice).
