This Week Is Brought To You By...

... The Letter B and The Number 2!

A few months ago Brinlee started getting really interested in letters.  She spent 3 whole days following me around asking me about every word she could think of.  It went something like this: 

"Puppy. What does puppy say mommy?"  
"P-P-Puppy. Puppy starts with P."  
"P-P-Puppy. P-P-P. Ok mommy. Bird. What does bird say mommy?"
.....

All. Day. Long.  Which made me start to think she could possibly benefit from some more productive quiet time activities.  So we've started talking more about the letters and numbers.  The idea was for me to be super mom (naturally) and do a different letter and number each week.  We did A and 1 at the end of June.  We are currently on C and 3... but hey, effort is effort, right?  And she is loving it. She's such a smarty pants, and such a quick learner.  We use McKenna's morning nap times when we can and try to do a fun themed activity a couple times a week.  Her favorite week so far has been letter B, of course.  B-B-B is for Brinlee! 


B was also for Bubbles, Books, Broccoli and Bananas, Bowling, Bouncing, Bean Bags, Baking, Bubble Baths, and Balloons.

Overall, not a B-B-Bad week!

  1. McKenna bouncing the high chair to punch her balloon is hilarious!
    A 'B' Week? What a fun, fun idea. I think you are showing all of us up DeeAnna. We should have thought of that. Tim would be even smarter than he is.
