Kind of the 'first day', at least. Elise goes to preschool 5 days/week. Ainsley goes one day only. I bought them a matching outfit (yay for CLEARANCE rack at Gymboree!!!), which is so not 'us'... but this fabric was so cute and they both loved it. Anyway, it was Elise's 5th day of school or something, but the first day for Ainsley. They both ADORE their teachers and seem to be doing well. Here's how the 2 minute photo session went:
"ok, girls. Smile. It's the first day of school together!!"

"Really. Elise. I know you're not a Morning Person, but try to fake it, ok!?" she HATES waking up...

"I'll give you both a lollipop if you just smile for a COUPLE QUICK seconds."

Whatever works somedays, right?!

Then I threw Mitchell in just b/c they all looked so darn cute. =)

...hmmm... this picture may resurface on a Christmas card...pretend you never saw it. =)

So cute! Mitchell is SO big... in a good way! I can't believe he is "1" already... time is flying. I love the turning point in the pictures after the promise of the lollipop... I remember when Elise wouldn't walk down the aisle at our wedding without the lollipop guarantee. :) We will be using that bribe some day too, I'm sure.
When is elise's appointment with the chiropractor?
I totally bought that dress for Reagan on the clearance rack at Gymboree too but then returned it.. it was too tight and the other size was too big.. oh well.. it is cute though!!
The fact that ainsley's smile just gets bigger in each pix cracks me up!

The first picture you posted on the first day of school after the lollipop bribe is one of the cutest pictures I have ever seen! I was looking through all of these and just AMAZED how old Elise is looking! I can't believe she's such a little girl now....what happened to toddler, little girl Elise?
