Another BIG step

It's that time of year, back to school!  I have a FIRST grader.  I can hardly believe it, when did I get this old?  Brayden will be in school ALL day, gone for 7 hours (including busing).  I'm not sure what  Dani, Ellie and I will do with all this girl time.  We will miss him!

 A BIG yummy breakfast.  Belgian waffle with blackberries, whip cream and cheesy eggs.  (Tomorrow will be the standard frozen waffle with peanut butter).

 New school clothes and new shoes.  I made him stand this way so I could see his adidas sambas.  I LOVE these shoes, navy and orange.  Hopefully he will like them as much as I do!  :)

                                              In line for the bus.

You can't tell in this pic. but there are TWENTY kids at his bus stop.  I LOVE it!

On his way......

I am a little broken hearted that I will be working when he gets off the bus today, but I can't wait to hear all about his day when I'm done!  I love you Brayden GOO!

Another big step for the girls:

We survived the trip to my parent's house over the weekend.  We all worked hard and packed, trashed and reminisced over lots of stuff!  We were fortunate enough to get my brother's bunk bed!  I tell ya,they made stuff a lot more sturdy back in the day.  This bunk bed is going to last forever, or at least until the girls are 18 and outta here!  We broke down their toddler beds and assembled this:

The bottom bed is supposed to make an L shape, but with it directly under, we get a lot more space for two little bodies and lots of toys.  They are THRILLED, and so far so good.  No accidents yet, but I did take the ladder off and hide it for the majority of the day.  That's normal, right?

My baby girls are in BUNK BEDS!
