First and Second day of school

Our first day of school pictures did not go as expected, it was raining and by raining I mean flooding. We opted for a few indoor pictures and here is what I did end up with, don't they just look as if they are going to bubble over excitement! I tried to get each boy to hold up the number of fingers as they are old, if you will look close you will see that Mason is holding 2 and Brayden 5...Since day 1 did not go so well I decided to take second day of school pictures
This one is not going to school on Thursdays, but he is cute and therefore had his picture taken as well.

First, Mason wanted to take a silly picture, can you tell what he is doing?


If you guessed balancing a Cheerio on his nose, you would be correct.


And then we had to take one of his light-saber before having to put it away, because we don't take our light-saber to school. Yes, I am that kind of mom who makes him put his invisible toy away, although sometimes he sneaks it in anyway.

And here is the obligatory, "okay mom I will take a regular picture."
I am just wondering exactly what is going through these two little minds.
And there is our first and second day of school, posted within a week of it happening!
