It's elementary, my dear Lincoln.

   We have visited my mom's work a few times recently.  Her sixth graders gave presentations of an amazing project they did involving a census and proposed bus routes.  I don't remember doing real, applicable research like this when I was their age, but she taught them how to survey their school and then, based on where families lived in which cities, they had to propose two bus routes that would be most efficient in terms of mileage and families served.  How cool is that?  I won't post pics of them without permission, but here is Lincoln and me watching:


And then we went to sift through some of her stuff with my home-schooling sister-in-law.  I had to laugh at my supreme dorkiness in this pic.  You can see Tara in the background, cute and pregnant!


When Lincoln grew restless, we made use of the extended care room.  He loves to climb everything in sight!


In fact, we bought him a slide.  Mainly because it came attached to a ladder.  Here he is climbing at home with his favorite teddy bear,  Tub-o-Lard.
