off to school

and the house is mighty quiet again.





zee insisted upon a shot of his nifty skater shoes. (okay, so it's likely that nifty and skater have never cohabitated in a sentence before, but thus is the incongruous beauty of my blog. welcome aboard.)





bee grudgingly granted me a grimace-free photo (little does he know that i will still be inflicting this particular form of torture upon him well up to his senior year)...







and then we have the newest edition to the schoolyard ruck. in this mum's opinion, he looks awfully little to be trekking off to school, but he does wear that backpack with aplomb.











so now it's just us girls at home; expect lots of photos of elle. which, now that i mention it, is mostly what this blog ends up being anyway. so um, yeah. business as usual.

Does Elle miss them? I thought it would be easier once school started...to have less kiddos at home. Turns out the older kids have gotten really good at entertaining the little ones.

That must be a hard adjustment!

Great shots as usual, Nic.

I never stop being amazed at how rapidly little ones turn into big ones.
