The Countdown Is On

In six days Brandt will start second grade at a brand new school.  He is pretty excited since I finally showed him some of the pictures of the interior of the school.  Because if Frisco's rapid growth, this is one of six new schools that FISD will open this fall.  We were rezoned from our old school and our neighborhood will go to the new school.  The only downside is that half of our friends live in the other neighborhood and will stay at our old school.
To get ready for school we have gotten a haircut, bought new tennis shoes, gotten our school supplies, picked out a new backpack and lunchbox and even bought some new underwear.  I also decided that since he is 7 now it is time that he started to take his own baths.  I have always bathed the kids together, all at once.  Now Brandt is going to take a shower on his own.  We had a test run tonight and he did a great job.  Bathing Campbell and Blake was much easier for mommy too! 
Brandt came downstairs earlier today and told me that he was going through some changes and we needed to talk.  Not really something that I was sure I wanted to hear from my 7 year old!  Turns out, he just wanted to know if he could start sleeping in the top bunk (the up bed).  Now if I could get them all to actually sleep in their beds, all night, we would be in business!
