Productive

I decided that this week was the one week out of the summer in which I was going to be productive. With work starting next week and the kiddos coming back to school the week after, I got my behind in gear and began setting up my classroom...with Logan in tow. I figured that I'd try to take him in with me on Monday and see if I could actually get anything done. To make sure he wasn't bored I packed up the play gym, his bumbo, Ellie the Elephant, a washcloth, and his teddy bear. Of course, the usual diapers and bottles came too. We must have been a sight walking into school with craziness sticking out from every inch of his stroller. Even so, I'm happy to report: SUCCESS! Not only did Logan come to work with me on Monday, he also came back on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I don't think I broke any child labor laws. I mean, he just played and showed his cute face to all of my teacher friends. We successfully hung bulletin boards up, hot glued massive amounts of posters (while also giving myself a 2nd degree burn, not fun), placed desks into rows, and even took a laminating trip to the teaching store just for fun. My classroom is almost finished and I owe it all to the wonderful behavior of my son.

Logan explained to me that his favorite time of the day would be calendar. He's currently working on knowing what a number even is
As we put up the word wall we sang our ABC's!
Setting up a classroom is hard work :)

My theory is that by bringing him into the classroom when he's 5 months, Logan will undoubtedly become a genius. Or at least become a successful organizer and decorator. I'd like to lean toward the genius hypothesis.
