Elf On The Shelf, 25 days

Our mischievous Christopher Elf was here for 25 days! I have started this little tradition 3 years ago, but we don't follow all the "rules" intended to get children on their best behaviors for 3 weeks....because I believe Boo should try to be "good" all year long, and not just for Christmas. 


It is a fun thing for us me to do, and Boo to experience.  The Husband is starting to enjoy this too, as he would sometimes ask me what Christopher would tonight, and makes sure Christopher doesn't forget to make the reindeer food on Christmas Eve. I am surprised at how much Boo loves Christopher. She also remembers a lot of the mischievous things he did from previous years. I know which are her favorites, but I.. Christopher tries to not repeat the same thing twice. I didn't go all out and crazy this year...but maybe next time! This is a quick compilation of what our Elf did this year. Something for us to look back at one day. =)

Boo drew a picture of them:

Day 2: Christopher TP'ed the stairs

Day 3: Christopher wanted a new outfit. All wrapped up.

Day 4: Caught in the web! (Clearly I did not do a good job, because Boo said "Oh look, Christopher is pretending to be Santa and Spider-Man is like a reindeer pulling him.") I tried, haha.

Day 5: Elf Shoefie!

Day 6: Christopher had a late night tea party with the princesses.

Day 7: Christopher was not impressed with the Christmas decor in the house, so he took it upon himself to wrap picture frames. I like it!

Day 8: Christopher went skiing.

Day 9: Christopher wrote a little note on the mirror...glad he found a ladder.

Day 18: Namaste! Boo does yoga during PE at school, so Christopher thought he should try it out too.
Untitled
Day 19: Christopher left a note...he wants to play hide and seek.

Untitled

Day 23: Christopher made himself at home in a cozy igloo along with some snow.

Day 24: Boo watched the movie Elf for the first time last night. So Christopher had a great idea to make everyone Elf Spaghetti for breakfast! So thoughtful, yum...

Night 24: Christopher came early tonight to give Boo her new Christmas pajamas, reindeer food, and a reminder to leave cookies & milk out for Santa!

Day 25: Christopher stuffed her stocking and Santa came!
