Learning Our ABC's

The twins are learning so much these days. It seems like every day they learn and do something new!

We’ve been practicing our ABC’s for the past couple of weeks and today, I heard Taylor singing her ABC’s almost perfectly. She got the “L, M, N, O, P” letters a little out of sequence but the rest of the alphabet song, she got right. Paige is getting there too – she gets the first 6 or 7 letters right, then jumbles up the middle section of the alphabet song and then comes back for a strong finish with “U, V, W, X, Y, and Z…now I know my ABC’s, next time won’t you sing with me”. It’s very cute hearing the girls singing the ABC song together!

This afternoon, we also worked on our ABC’s puzzles. Some of these pictures are actually a little deceiving because the girls look like such little darlings sitting for what appears to be such a long period of time but they’re definitely not. We snapped these pictures in all of about 2 minutes which is about as long as they will sit and do any one focused task at this point. Ha, ha!
