So, both the girls have begged and begged and begged for an Elf on the Shelf. Mom and Daddy are a little old fashioned and just didn't have one for the last 9 Christmases we've had kids. However, both girls are becoming excellent at arguing a point and know just how to get us on their side with "Santa". They kept saying they were worried that he wouldn't know about all their good deeds without an elf. So, long story short, we caved and an elf has been living in our home since earlier this week. The girls named the elf Snowflake Cookie and the first day didn't go so well because Mom knocked the Elf off the shelf, literally! Fortunately, Snowflake Cookie got the needed medical assistance during her overnight visit to the North Pole. We didn't get photos of her bandages and haven't been asked to contribute to medical bills. Snowflake Cookie has also been found drinking hot chocolate, riding a reindeer figurine, making pancakes and sledding. Today the girls came home on the last day of school to find her doing wheelies in a Barbie car on the dining room table! You know, we also promised ourselves that even though we got an elf, we would absolutely not, under any circumstance publish it on the blog. Well, this was just too cute...what have we gotten ourselves into?!
Much Love,
Moises & Jennifer
