First Zit

Wm is growing up! He has his first zit! He thought it was a mosquito bite. But then said it didn't itch and hurt when he pressed on it. Welcome to adolescence, Wm!! I texted everyone and was like "My kid has his first zit!" and Wm was like, "stop telling people about my zit!" I told him he's a little man now and he's growing up, so I HAVE to share! I told him it is the harbinger of strange hairs and smells that will need to be dealt with. He is not happy about it. He says he wants to be Peter Pan and stay a kid forever.

The Zit

Continuing on his path to the Big Time, Wm went to his new school this morning for placement testing. He also got his school laptop and school pictures. It was cool - we could see all the pics they took and select the one we wanted! They will use that for his school ID and we can order it has his school pic, too. As we left, they said, "welcome to the Metro family!" and Wm beamed. He is soooo excited!! He already has his laptop all set up and ready to go. I thought this was super cute: he wanted to play games on it, but didn't want to break any rules, so he was up there reading the Student Handbook on the acceptable use policy for the school laptop. Games are OK!! (Hate speech and porn...not so much.)

And, just for S&G, here is Flip's latest wiener pic:

My spot was taken when I went to bed last night.

There is one creature who will be VERY sad Wm starts school next week! Flip was so excited to see Wm when I brought him home from school today. It's going to be a rough transition for him...
