Ready, Set...

We are all ready for our first day of school. I followed a friend's advice on taking pictures of the first day: she said it can be helpful to take pictures before the day because that day can be so crazy. In my case, I don't get to see Jocelyne on her first day, which is sad for me and also means that her daddy is left to take pictures of her (and do her hair, but we won't go there now). So I decided I'd dress the kids up Sunday afternoon before the first day and take some casual pictures of them in their clothes and with their backpacks. This way we are relaxed and having fun preparing for the day. Then I decided that I didn't want to ruin this good idea by taking them myself, so I asked afore mentioned friend (she is a professional photographer) to take the pics for me.

When did they get this big?

They really do get along this well (almost) all the time.


He insisted he could get it on himself. Bless his teacher!
