thanksgiving has come and gone. the halls are totally decked (in pink, purple, blue, green and red i might add), and emery was baptized today. with all of those items checked off my list, this is the biggest stress in my life right now:
her name is "sparkle". we have had her a couple of years now but the name sparkle is new this year. i think his name was "elf" last year. boooor-ing. so i guess santa sprung for a sex change for elf, and here she is. ellis actually wanted her name to be bella. omg. i did my best to steer her in another direction. i mean, there is a little boy who lives in our house too :)
if you don't have an elf on the shelf, you should. the elf comes with a cute book that basically tells little boys and girls that the elf is watching them...noticing the good and bad each day. every night, the elf heads to the north pole to report to santa. and when the kids wake up in the morning, the elf returns to a different spot in your house and the kids get to go find him/her....which is where is gets stressful for me. WHY IT IS SO HARD FOR ME TO REMEMBER TO MOVE HER? we have only had her out for like 6 nights. one night i completely forgot and two other mornings i remembered only because ellis said "ok beckett...let's go look for sparkle". i totally had to stall them and go put her in a new spot. ugh.
but tis' the season...let the stressful fun begin!
and yes- they do sell the above skirt for the elf in case your daughter wants a bella too :)
oh how funny! we love our elf too! i made rylie's a little tutu last year so she's a "dina."
