Oh happy day. School has begun!
You were both mui excited to return to school. Luke - of course - you are the only child making odd faces. Just keeping it real dude. So proud of you. I can't believe you are starting 2nd grade.
Look at you Char, such a big 1st grade girl!!! Love you!
That's a whole lotta cute in on picture. This is Char with her friend Anna.
This is the whole school. I love the small class sizes. And how individual they each are. Char & Anna are the only ones representing pink. Go girls!
This needs a little back story. Back to school shopping is a big deal for Charlotte. She loves shoes. Like really, really, really loves shoes. Like if she could just have 50 pairs of new shoes for Christmas (and maybe one stuffed animal) this would make her the happiest 5 year old around. So at our annual back to school shopping trip she took no less than 17 minutes to pick out a pair of shoes. Luke took 2. 17 minutes of angst and worry as to the right kind of shoe. Oh and nagging. Lots of nagging directed toward me because I would not allow her to buy high heeled shoes for school. Apparently I am in the minority as far as that decision goes (read "it's not fair mom, other girls have them"). So after all this ensues she finally picks these babies.
No, I am not kidding. These are the shoes she picks out of the several pairs of really cute, really girly flats. She picks THESE!!!! I had to laugh. And inwardly cringe. Luckily everyone at the school "gets" Charlotte. This is just the way she rolls. And yes, she insisted that tag must stay on all day.
And she loves these shoes.
What can I do?

The whole school...except for Colin! We got there late that morning. :( Love the pictures, though, so great.
And I actually also LOVE the shoes! I love how Charlotte rolls. Except for the heels thing. ;)
That top picture of Luke is hilarious. I LOVE the "everybody else gets to" sales pitch. Paige always tries to sell me on the high heels thing. She has a closet full of flats. A friend gave her a pair of wedges once and it took a full week to get them away from her! Crazy.
Charlotte is so cute. I can't believe how grown-up she is looking. She is going to look like a giant next to this baby!!
