We might never get through these letters

I just wanted to do a quick update.  We have 4 more weeks until baby #2, so things have been pretty hectic around here.  There's still a long list of things to do for our house projects, but the nursery is mostly finished.  I'm still working with Emma on her letters, and we're also throwing in some colors and shapes to our learning activities too.  We're on the letter M (I know, we should have probably been done by now, but I've not been as consistent as I should have), and our color for the week is red.  I'm hoping to also get a little work on circle in there somewhere.  It has worked out really well because for the past 2 weeks, the theme of storytime at the main library has gone right along with our theme at home.  Last week it was the letter L, and this week the color red.  We're also starting to work on one to one correspondence.  Emma loves to count, but she'll see 2 items and count to 20.  So I'm trying to be more intentional by counting anything and everything.  Here are a few pictures from the past week or two.

She loves this!
