First Day of School......finally! :)

School started on September 3rd this year. Ben started grade 2 and Paige started grade four in her new gifted program (which she LOVES!). Sam is graduating this year, hard to believe! I don't know where the time has gone....but then Katie turned 21 this summer so I shouldn't be shocked at how fast time flies!



Here is a picture of Paige and Ben in their 'first day of school' outfits. It never matters how many things they own, they always have to have a new outfit for the first day! (Ben and Paige both actually needed all new school clothes this year, but I can't complain. They are both so tiny and grow so slow right now that it has been two years since I've had to buy all new stuff for them! I am sure this isn't a trend that will continue!). Notice Paige has on a brown top with a sweater slung over her shoulder?







Here is what that sweater looked like on. She is just like her Gramma Barbie, a real clothes horse! She tells ME what I should and should not wear....pretty sad when your 9 year old has better fashion sense than you do! hehehe






And then there is Ben in his 'uniform'....a pair of jeans and a shirt. He really took a shine to the Tony Hawke line this year, so most of his shirts are from that collection...and he was worse than Paige to shop with. EVERYTHING had to be just the right colour and shade and match everything else....can we say 'metrosexual'? lolol




Hugs to all,
Jaye

Such cuties! That Paige is such a skinny little thing...what I wouldn't give for my legs to look like those in a pair of jeans.
