Snowflake

With only 15 days left until Christmas (Good grief!!! I'm hyperventilating now!!!), we are down to the wire. Our tree is up and decorated, as is the house. But there are no presents wrapped under the tree, our stockings haven't been hung gently with care (unless you count hanging on the tree because I can't find our fireplace hangers from moving!), and I still have shopping to do. Yikes!!!

 One thing we are enjoying, however, is Snowflake, our elf. Boy has he done some crazy things! I'm still not sure that T fully understands the concept, but he has done better within the last week. I mean, just Tuesday when we found Snowflake climbing up the garland to get to the mantle, the kid looked at me and said, "Mommy, I don't like Snowflake. I just don't get him!" Crazy kid! But, with it seems like the more fun things that he does, the more he is liked. We have found written notes reminding T to listen to his parents and teachers and be nice to his friends. Although I'm not quite sure that's helping!! 

                                              

                                            Fishing trip!

                  Fun with V-Tech (T did not want to share!)

                                                     Reading a book

          Sitting on the Treat Box reminding T to behave

          Worn out from his trip back from the North Pole

 

       Apparently the whole Elf thing is tough work....

With 2 weeks left until Christmas, I can only imagine what surprises are in store!! Maybe Snowflake will bring back some colder weather from the North Pole so it feels more like Christmas!
