Ricky thinks Brody needs this bed. He always wanted a car bed when he was a boy but his parents wouldn't let him have one so he is on a mission for our boy to have this bed. My logical is that Brody will not like it after about 8 years old but Ricky insist he will love it forever. I think Ricky might want to sleep on this bed he likes it so much. He even mentioned it comes in pink for the girls. My responses was along the lines of when hell freezes over. 
I really love this bed for the girls with a trundle bed underneath to save space in their room. We spotted this in Pottery Barn and it's made really well. I considered bunk beds but I loath them and think they are not safe.I'd rather have something more classic that they will have forever and that will go with whatever theme they decided as they grow. Can you imagine Brody being 17 years old sleeping in that bed? I can't. But I don't want to think of him being 17 yet either.
I'm not sure what else we are going to get them. They have Power Wheels, bikes, scooter, tricycles, a wagon, swing set, outside playhouse, sand box, trampoline, swimming pool, etc. so maybe it'll be a few small things. We only do 3 gifts each plus 1 from Santa anyway. We are also looking at what we will do when the Christmas season rolls around. Last year we took them on the train ride to the North Pole which they still talk about but this year we are thinking about taking them to College Station to http://www.santas-wonderland.com/ but it's more expensive then the train rides were and they were a lot!
Bath and Body Works is having a HUGE sale so I got their teacher gifts already. Can't beat putting together a gift that cost $5 a teacher and is nice stuff. I did this last year too and saved big because I also got their therapist little gifts. Between therapist and teachers we have 8 people to think about. It adds up.
Anyway, more stuff on the to do list but it keeps me busy.
This is going to be a really long post only because I'm just remembering I didn't update about Gracie's big appointment last week....
