Back to school!

I'm a day late, but yesterday was Aidan's first day of grade one. Yes I know, our school district (which is apparently run by educational geniuses) started on Sept 1 - the earliest ever. Instead of starting after Labour Day as they usually do, they determined that in order to get the required number of school days they needed to start before Labour Day. This despite the Ministry of Education's recommendation to delay the start of school until after Labour Day. Of course since summer was so crummy, you just know the month of September is going to be beautiful and the poor guy will be stuck in school (and so far we have had fantastic weather this week!) Whatever, too late to bitch now.....

Anyhow - Aidan started grade 1 in French Immersion. He has been sooooo..... excited to start grade 1 because he's so ready to go everyday. Here are some pictures of my first grader (ACK!!):



I also had to throw this picture of Shannon in. She was traipsing around the house with her hands in her shorts pockets, looking every inch the fashionista:
