Obviously, I am more then a little behind on keeping this updated on our letter adventures [see this post] which is probably bc we've been so busy actually DOING the associated activities. So I will just catch it all up right now.

As you may remember, for letter A we ate apples and had fresh squeezed apple juice at the aquarium. We also watched Ariel and talked about Addy's name and how that starts with the letter A.

For letter B, we baked banana bread, explored and learned about the beach, took a bath, read lots of books, and of course played with Baby sister.

For letter C, we visited a castle on the cliffs, ate croissants at a cafe, colored and watched some Curious George and cooked cookies.
For letter D, we got donuts, did lots of dancing with family, hung out with Daddy and visited and learned about ducks-and of course watched some Donald Duck. We also read about dinosaurs and did some drawing.
For letter E, we visited the Exploratorium [which is like a hands on museum-kids LOVE it], learned about and colored elephants, played with Eskimo puppets and learned about ears. For this part, my family got involved and tried on different animal ears and sang do your ears hang low. We also watched Emperor's New Groove.
For letter F, we went to Pacifica's annual Fog Fest, where we got Addy's face painted and played in the jumpy fun houses, visited friends and ate french fries. We also learned about flowers and farms and the animals they have there. We also watched read/watched Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Apart from alphabet related activities, life has kept at a steadily busy pace. Lots of balancing with work and school for Lester, and me with the two kiddos. But luckily we've been able to throw some fun in here and there, with things like beach walks at sunset, zoo trips and other fun times. These are the things that make all the mundane ones worth it. We have lots of wonderful memories to look back on, and lots of wonderful things to look forward to. So that is life right now!
