Oh my....really?

We took down the loft bed a few weeks ago at Carter's request.  He was tired of climbing up and down to get in bed, and wanted a "normal" bed in his room....which is growing up in so many ways right along with him.

New bed in 2006!

  He's also been watching re-runs of the tv show "Drake and Josh" (don't you wonder where this is going?) Well, Drake, the "cool" kid on the show, has a loft bed that is huge. It has space all around the mattress that is just sitting on a platform.  And you can hang out up there, sit on the edge and play your guitar: exactly the things he wants to be doing in his more "grownup" rooms these days.

So we're talking about it.  I've pushed it off under later in the summer when we have more downtime.  It would be much bigger than the loft bed he had.  It would go from wall to wall. 

I'm thinking I've lost my mind. 

But I did some research anyway, and found this at Ana-white.com:  Oh.My. gosh. Now I know ours would have to be more grownup than this, but what kid wouldn't want a tree house inside their room?

For now, I'm letting this all process, sink in, and see if he changes his mind.  But if not, it would be a really cool project to tackle!
